  • ABySS installation issue

    Hello!
    I have downloaded the ABySS for all platforms and extracted it to the home folder of my computer.
    Now,I just cannot install ABySS correctly!
    Can anyone tell me how they installed it?
    ABySS directed me to download a certain C++ package which I had successfully downloaded,but I cannot run the standard abyss assembly with the ./abyss-pe command.

    You need to provide some additional information. What OS you are using? Did you compile the program after downloading it (https://github.com/bcgsc/abyss#compi...-from-source)?

      I'm using Ubuntu 11.10
      when I type the following command for a test read
      saikat@rumtek:~/SOFTWARES/abyss-1.5.2/bin> ./abyss-pe k=57 name=trial lib='trial' \trial='reads1.fastq reads2.fastq'
      the message I get is:
      ABYSS -k57 -q3 --coverage-hist=coverage.hist -s trial-bubbles.fa -o trial-1.fa reads1.fastq reads2.fastq
      /bin/bash: ABYSS: command not found
      make: *** [trial-1.fa] Error 127

      whereas the reads are URL the link on the abyss help page
      wget http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo...st-data.tar.gz
      and the reads have been pased in the bin folder of abyss.

        Command you need to use to try test data set is (from the page I linked above)

        Code:
        $ ./abyss-pe k=25 name=test in='test-data/reads1.fastq test-data/reads2.fastq'
        If your test reads are not in "test-data" directory under 'bin' then you should use

        Code:
        $ ./abyss-pe k=25 name=test in='reads1.fastq reads2.fastq'

          [/QUOTE]

          and I got this message:
          -bash: /abyss-pe: No such file or directory
          abyss didnt get installed properly possibly.
          and the packages in the link came with the abyss installation folder itself!

              Can you post a listing (ls -l) of the bin directory for abyss? Did you get any errors when you compiled (i.e. use make)?

                    The relevant files are all there so I am not certain why you are getting an error about abyss-pe not found.

                    Can you try the following (assuming you are in the bin directory)?

                    Code:
                    $ ./abyss-pe
                    Does that print abyss help message to the screen?

                      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
                      by seqadmin


                      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
