Problems running omark - list index out of range

[claraptzsl]

Hi there,

I'm trying to run omark on a few annotations with omark -f ${species}.omamer -d /.../LUCA-v2.0.0.h5 -o output -i ${species}.splice. I ran omamer before with omamer search --db /.../LUCA-v2.0.0.h5 --query ${species}.aa --out ${species}.omamer -t 12 which worked without an error message. Everytime I run omamer, i get the following error message:

`Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/s-clpitz/miniforge3/envs/oma/bin/omark", line 51, in omark.launcher(arg) File "/home/s-clpitz/miniforge3/envs/oma/lib/python3.11/site-packages/omark/omark.py", line 265, in launcher get_omamer_qscore(omamerfile, dbpath, outdir, taxid, original_FASTA_file = original_fasta, isoform_file=isoform_file, taxonomic_rank=taxonomic_rank) File "/home/s-clpitz/miniforge3/envs/oma/lib/python3.11/site-packages/omark/omark.py", line 85, in get_omamer_qscore placements = spd.get_present_lineages(full_match_data, hog_tab, tax_tab, tax_buff, sp_tab, chog_buff) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/s-clpitz/miniforge3/envs/oma/lib/python3.11/site-packages/omark/species_determination.py", line 53, in get_present_lineages all_tax = get_close_taxa_omamer(omamdata, hog_tab, tax_tab, tax_buff, chog_buff, allow_hog_redun =False) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/s-clpitz/miniforge3/envs/oma/lib/python3.11/site-packages/omark/species_determination.py", line 79, in get_close_taxa_omamer if 'hoglevel' not in omamerdata[0]:

  warnings.warn(UnclosedFileWarning(msg))`

I ran Omark yesterday on 49 different annotations which worked completely fine. The fasta-headers in these annotations had no underlines, so I tried removing them from my fasta headers today but the same error occured. I also tried using only the first 100 proteins and also got the same problem.

Do you have any idea on how to solve this problem? 

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi, sorry for the inconvenience. I found the problem: my transcript ids were inconsistent between the gtf and protein fasta file. After fixing this, it works. (Just as an information, if someone encounters the same error message.)

Hello Clara,

Thank you for using our software and for reporting this issue. I apologize for the late answer. As you said, it may happen when protein identifiers in the FASTA file and ones in the splice file are not consistent. However, it should be handled in a more user friendly way, that should make it easier to spot the issue. I am adding it to my TODO list for a future update.

Best wishes, Yannis
