Where does deepsignal save the temporary files? #71

Closed ViHammer closed 3 years ago

ViHammer commented 3 years ago

How does deepsignal save the temporary results? Ram usage suggests that temporary files are created somewhere, but I cannot find them. Cause of my question is the "disappearance" of the output file of my last run. A test run with a reduced dataset was successful, but I could not find the output file of my completed run. The path to my result-file was correct and deepsignal did not produce an error message. I am wondering if a cronjob deleted some temp files. Or can relative paths cause issues?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @ViHammer , thanks for your interest of deepsignal. Does temporary results mean the --result_file param in deepsignal call_mods command? And, can you show me the command you used and the log of your run?

Best, Peng

I think my problem solved itself. On my first run, no result_file was created. I thought this was normal behavior and that it would only create this file once all positions had been called. This is why I was wondering where deepsignal created temporary files. I restarted deepsignal, and it seems to work correctly now.

Thanks for the rapid response!
