  • SOAPdenovo command not found error (linux)

    Hi Everyone !
    I'm new to this field of genome sequencing and generating contigs.
    I've downloaded the latest bin version of SOAPdenovo2 and placed it in a directory in my Desktop.
    I've also edited my config file to match my parameters and path to my data set.
    My issue is that when I go to the terminal and type the command:

    SOAPdenovo-63mer
    or

    SOAPdenovo-63mer all -s metasim_config -K 63 -p 1 -o jack>log
    I get this error:

    SOAPdenovo-63mer: command not found
    I've checked the permissions (and I'm the admin anyway), and the SOAPdenovo-63mer is located in the same directory where I am, and I've looked at it's properties and it does say its an executable file.

    So, what am I missing here ?

    SOAPdenovo-63mer file should be in a directory in your PATH environment.
    you can export the PATH to your SOAPdenovo-63mer file by adding the path of the directory to the path environment

    Use:
    export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/the/soapdenovo/directory

    (of course this will work only in the terminal your export the path and have to do every time you open a new terminal. to avoid this you can place the SOAPdenovo-63mer in any folder accessed by PATH or change the .bashrc file)

    or place the SOAPdenovo-63mer in the directory from where you are executing it and use

    ./SOAPdenovo-63mer

        Hey! I am having the same problem. How do you find the path for SOAPdenovo? (im using Linux)

          Did you compile the software/do the install (or someone else did)?

            someone did it for me. I think she did the "make".

              This is probably not going to work but can you first try

              Code:
              $ which SOAPdenovo-63mer
              If you are new to unix (command line) then it may be a good investment to read through this for some UNIX basics. http://korflab.ucdavis.edu/Unix_and_...ent.html#part1

              If you are the impatient kind try to see if the command below can locate the program

              Code:
              $ find ~ -name "SOAPdenovo-63mer" -print
              If that does not produce anything then try (could take some time):

              Code:
              $ find / -name "SOAPdenovo-63mer" -print

                thanks! I got the path from the first code you gave.

                  I am experiencing another problem.

                  I am now working in just 1 path. The SOAPdenovo, the configuration file, and the sequence data are in the same directory.

                  The command I used is

                  all -s file.config -K 63 -R -o graph_prefix 1>ass.log 2>ass.err

                  I got 2 files for the output: the log file (emtpty) and the err file which says

                  No command 'all' found, did you mean:
                  Command 'al2' from package 'mono-devel' (main)
                  Command 'alc' from package 'amule-utils-gui' (universe)
                  Command 'alc' from package 'amule-adunanza-utils-gui' (universe)
                  Command 'als' from package 'atool' (universe)
                  Command 'ali' from package 'mailutils-mh' (universe)
                  Command 'ali' from package 'nmh' (universe)
                  Command 'al' from package 'mono-devel' (main)
                  Command 'axl' from package 'afnix' (universe)
                  Command 'wall' from package 'bsdutils' (main)
                  Command 'ale' from package 'ale' (universe)

                  What should I do?

                    I think you need to do

                    Code:
                    $ SOAPdenovo-63mer all -s file.config -K 63 -R -o graph_prefix 1>ass.log 2>ass.err

                      Hi!
                      I use soapdenovo1.04 and type the command:

                      ./SOAPdenovo pregraph -s a.config -K 31 -d 1 -o test>test.log

                      after that I only got :test.log
                      test.edge
                      test.kmerFreq
                      these 3 files ,without the test.preGraphBasic file. And I cannot go to the next step. Can someone help me ?

                        Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
                        by seqadmin



                        The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

                        Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
                        by seqadmin



                        Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
