input fastq.gz error #67

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
>cutadapt -a TGGAATTCT input.fastq.gz > output.fastq

If applicable, please provide a minimal example, such as the sequence of a
single read that was not trimmed correctly.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
No reads were read! Either your input file is empty or you used the wrong 
-f/--format parameter. 

???What is the correct -f or other setting to use fastq.gz Illumina input?

That command line should work exactly as you wrote it, no -f setting is 
necessary. Is output.fastq really empty as the message indicates?

What does the command "zcat input.fastq.gz | head" give you?
