Target name not accepted by ddcal worker

[Dakalo12]

The ddcal worker is not accepting the target name. It replaces an underscore with a dash, then gives the KeyError.

Output from the log file:

@Dakalo12 this is a known issue, unfortunately. The bug is being fixed, but a quicker solution to save time is to just change the field name in the MS file and rerun.

@KshitijT I am a beginner in data reduction, so I do not know how to edit the field name in the MS file. May you please guide me on how to go about it?

I have tried with CASA, but it is failing to find the FILED_NAME column in the MS file; it says the column FIELD_NAME does not exist.
