Chances are this is because you've never received a proper TIFF* in the
first place as a return of TIFFOpen, because the "temp.tif" wasn't
found. Add an error check, like this.
TIFF *in;
In = TIFFOpen("temp.tif","r");
if (In==NULL)
/* some error occured */
...
else
TIFFClose(in);
Probably things work better if you pass a full filename with complete
path.
For more information on TIFFOpen, including error return value, see
