    Error when running ABySS

    I am working on a centOS release 6.6 Linux cluster.

    I have Abyss and open mpi installed in my path:
    Code:
    $ which mpirun
    /c3se/apps/Glenn/openmpi/1.5.4/bin/mpirun
    $ which abyss-pe
    /c3se/NOBACKUP/groups/c3-sysbio/Softwares/glenn/Bioinformatics/abyss/abyss-1.5.2/bin/abyss-pe
    However, when I run abyss I get an error:
    Code:
    $ abyss-pe name=test k=25 in='test1.fastq test2.fastq'
    ABYSS -k25 -q3   --coverage-hist=coverage.hist -s test-bubbles.fa  -o test-1.fa test1.fastq test2.fastq 
    /bin/bash: ABYSS: command not found
    make: *** [test-1.fa] Error 127
    abyss it self seems to be recognized on the machine, since abyss-pe -h prints the options

    Is there an executable with an all capital name ABYSS somewhere? The error message above says that that file is not found. Is that an alias you had to create when you installed the program?

      There is no executable called ABYSS in the abyss-1.5.2/bin dir:

      was refered to in this http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45216 thread, but it seems like the solution was not found.

        There should be a file named ABYSS (and ABYSS-P) in your install. Perhaps your compilation was incomplete?

          re-installing solved the problem... Thanks for answers

            Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

            Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
            by SEQadmin2


            I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

            Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
