I countered this problem when running MACS.

[hanifk]

Under your help, I began to know I should use software,such as MACS or FindPeaks,to find peak areas.

after using the commad,
python setup.py install --prefix /home/taoliu/
I think I have installed macs successfully.

However, when I run the command ./macs14

I got the error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./macs14", line 34, in <module>
from MACS14.OptValidator import opt_validate
ImportError: No module named MACS14.OptValidator

I couldn't google this error , I don't know how to deal with it.

Does anyone counter this problem?
Could you give me the solution?
Thanks very much.

The import error suggests Python isn't looking in /home/taoliu/lib/python2.X/site-packages/ which is where you installed the MACS14 library. Try setting your PYTHONPATH environment variable.

try

python setup.py install --user

It should work

Both the two methods are useful.
Thanks for your help.
