    Picard CheckIlluminaDirectory: BaseCalls file format not found

    Hi,

    I recently used the MiSeq for a 2 x 76 paired-end sequencing run.

    I moved the 'L001' directory from BaseSpace to our cluster (with Picard 2.1.0; java 1.8.0_77)
    The 'L001' directory contains the sub-directories named 'C1.1', 'C2.1',..., 'C158.1', each containing the '.bcl' and '.stats' files.

    I then run the following command:
    Code:
    java -jar picard.jar CheckIlluminaDirectory \
    B=L001/ \
    RS=76T6B76T \
    L=1 \
    DATA_TYPES=BaseCalls
    It returns:
    Code:
    picard.illumina.CheckIlluminaDirectory BASECALLS_DIR=/home/user/L001 DATA_TYPES=[BaseCalls] READ_STRUCTURE=76T6B76T LANES=[1]    FAKE_FILES=false LINK_LOCS=false VERBOSITY=INFO QUIET=false VALIDATION_STRINGENCY=STRICT COMPRESSION_LEVEL=5 MAX_RECORDS_IN_RAM=500000 CREATE_INDEX=false CREATE_MD5_FILE=false GA4GH_CLIENT_SECRETS=client_secrets.json

    Is this program intended to be ran directly on BaseSpace in order to respect the directory tree with all the sequencing metrics files?

    Looking at picard command line overview the entire BaseCalls directory is required (https://broadinstitute.github.io/pic...-overview.html).

      You are right GenoMax !

      The program needs to look in the 'BaseCalls' directory.
      Plus, the tree architecture needs to be conserved since it will call some files from 'InterOp' dir as well.

        The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

        16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
        by SEQadmin2





        NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...
