Make a custom database failed #39

Closed Pikayy closed 7 years ago

Pikayy commented 7 years ago

I was tried to make a custom database based on arthropoda proteins. I created a the database fasta file named kaiju_test and ran in the kaiju/bin file:

mkbwt -n 5 -a ACDEFGHIKLMNPQRSTVWY -o proteins kaiju_test

and this is what I got:

-bash: kaiju: command not found

The file mkbwt is in the kaiju/bin directory. What could be the problem? Thanks for your time!

This error looks like you tried to run kaiju and not mkbwt. What exactly did you do? best is to copy everything from your terminal..
