VIRIDIC web server is not able to perform calculation #4

I have uploaded a valid fasta file with the appropriate format. Therefore, when I upload the fasta file, the VIRIDIC says "Valid fasta file" But, VIRIDIC was not able to process my calculation. I have tried downloading fasta files from NCBI for a test run but it still did not work. Can you please help?

There are several reasons for which VIRIDIC can't complete the calculations. Ussually the reason resides in the input. VIRIDIC only checks if files with a fasta extension are given. If there are other problems with the input (e.g. spaces in the record names, or duplicated records), VIRIDIC will not be able to complete the calculations. Please check your input fasta file. If it is still not working, let me know.

Thank you so much for your reply.

I have tried running the program with a reference sequence that I downloaded from the NCBI website to make sure that my sequence file was wrongly formatted or not and unfortunately, the NCBI sequence was not able to go through the pipeline as well. Will you be able to provide me with an example fasta file so that I can try running the program with the file and compare my sequence with it? Thank you in advance!
