Issue with displaying results in GUI in MP v. 2.5.1. #92

Closed GlassLabGT closed 7 years ago

GlassLabGT commented 8 years ago

Thanks very much for your hard work to make this software publicly available & for free. I have finally had a chance to run some of our genome assemblies through the pipeline. The run was successful, but I'm having problems visualizing the results in the MP results viewer. (This is really what I was hoping to use it for, as I was excited to have the annotations, phylogeny and contig viewer all together in one app.) I can get the DB file to open in the Pathway Tools software, but was hoping to use MP instead, as it appears to be a bit more user friendly. My view of the Results tab looks the same as the wiki (a blank page with no options to select anything for "Single-sample"). I can navigate to the output folder, but no choices appear in the "Select Samples" button. Thanks for your advice on how to get this working.

Hello, I am assuming you're referencing the documentation given at https://github.com/hallamlab/mp_tutorial/wiki/MetaPathways-v2.0-Installation-and-Usage-Instructions, and this picture specifically. Have you placed the formatted databases required for displaying results in the folder structure specified in the steps?

GlassLabGT commented 8 years ago

Thanks for your fast response! Yes, that is the documentation I am referring to. Sorry, but I'm a bit confused. In version 2.5.1, I have "metapathways2-master" as the MP2 directory and "MetaPathways_DBs" as the database directory. I see the correct folders in the correct structure under "MetaPathways_DBs", but I don't see a "blastDB" folder anywhere. I am simply using the databases that came with the program (COG and MetaCyc for "functional", and LSURef for "taxonomic"). I will update them and add more databases later, but I wanted to make sure I could get it running first. I understand that since I haven't loaded KEGG, CAZY and SEED DBs, those results won't show, but shouldn't I be able to see the COG and MetaCyc tabs with the settings as they are?

If memory serves me correct, the release does not contain fully formatted database files. The database files we released were mostly for example, as at the time, they were in the tens of gigabytes when formatted locally. You would need to download and format the database and place them into their respective folders as required by the example.

Hi Thanks for your comments. I will upload a video of how to use it in a couple of days. I realized that this would help everyone out.

Regards Kishori

Thanks Kishori, that would be greatly appreciated! I'm not sure if I'm using the correct DB files. They don't seem to be automatically formatting correctly, so I'm stuck now until I can add the DBs correctly (I was trying to use MetaCyc v20.0 and Silva SSU v123). Much appreciated!

Here is my set-up ( I have a lot of extra files but your should look similar. First here is where MP is looking:

Now here is what my file structure looks like inside
