Problem with STAR version using zUMIs #2170

Hi,

I am using zUMIs for the very first time. My problem is that I generated the indexes with the same version of STAR that I use for mapping. I only have one version installed. The pipeline gives me a warning that I used the previous version to index the genome and then the pipeline fails.

"WARNING: The STAR version used for mapping is 2.7.10a and the STAR index was created using the version 2.7.4a. This may lead to an error while mapping. If you encounter any errors at the mapping stage, please make sure to create the STAR index using STAR 2.7.10a."

Can you tell me that can be the problem?

Best regards,

Asia

Hay, I had the same question #2065

Basically its just a note for backwards compatibility, so safe to ignore the warning (As you only have one instance of STAR so shouldn't be an issue).
