problems of installation #44

Closed Daniu-danLiu closed 2 years ago

Daniu-danLiu commented 3 years ago

Hi, I got some problems when using the DeNovoGUI 1.16.6. It works if I don't choose any setting file. But when choosing any parameter file even the original denovo.par, I got the error from de novo parameters. image

Maybe it's derived from the error of installation. I change the path of denovogui_mathes_directory to get through the path setting, but when I prepare to restart the computer, there is an error. image

And the following is my path settings. original path that can't be written: C:\Windows\System32\resources final path that I set: C:\Users\sun.compomics 3 4

It would be grateful if you would be so kind to help me solve the problems above.

Sincerely, Dandan Liu

Hi Dandan Liu,

You have to install (i.e. unzip) DeNovoGUI into a folder where you have write access. This will usually not be the case for "C:\Windows\System32\resources". I would recommend that you download a new version of DeNovoGUI and unzip it to, for example, your desktop (or another location were you know you have write access). That way you should hopefully not experience any of the issues above.

Best regards, Harald
