    error message with samtools converting pileup to vcf

    Hi,

    I am new to sequencing. I use samtools 0.1.15 to run the pile up

    samtools pileup -vcf hg19.fasta sample_removed_duplicates_sorted.bam > sample_pileup.pre
    $SAMDIR/misc/samtools.pl varFilter -d 15 -S 30 -i 30 -Q 50 -q 50 sample_pileup.pre| awk '$6>=20' > sample_pileup

    and then call snps with

    $SAMDIR/misc/sam2vcf.pl -r hg19.fasta -R -s < sample_pileup
    > sample_pileup.snps.vcf

    This all went fine.
    I use
    $SAMDIR/misc/sam2vcf.pl -r reference.fasta -R -i < sample_pileup
    > sample_pileup.indels.vcf

    Error message:
    Can't exec "samtools": No such file or directory at /home/samtools-0.1.15/misc/sam2vcf.pl line 238, <STDIN> line 7.
    samtools faidx hg19.fasta chr1:1289367-11289367: No such file or directory at /home/samtools-0.1.15/misc/sam2vcf.pl line 151

    I have already index the hg19.fasta with samtools faidx and put in the same directory as the hg19.fasta

    Thanks very much for comments

      Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
      by SEQadmin2



      Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

      Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

      New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
      by SEQadmin2


      Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

      We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
