LTR_Retriever RMBlast not installed #58

Closed RadeshNMP closed 4 years ago

RadeshNMP commented 4 years ago

Dear Shujun,

I am trying to run the LTR_Retriever to generate the LAI for a plant genome. When I tried to run the LTR_Retriever using the input of the LTR_harvest, I got the below error message regarding the RMblast.

Parameters: -genome /work/lianglab/wgs/lavender/LA_genome_final.fa -inharvest ../LA_ltrharvest_output -v

Wed Nov 6 15:04:36 EST 2019 Dependency checking: The RMblast engine is not installed in RepeatMasker!

I have run RepeatMasker before and I did not have any issues with it. Please let me know your thoughts and suggestions to get past this issue.

Thank you, Radesh

Hi Radesh,

Sorry for the delay reply. This tells that the RepeatMasker does not have the -engine ncbi installed, which is RMblast. You may want to reinstall RepeatMasker or provide a version that has RMblast installed. The conda version v4.0.9_p2 works for me.

Best, Shujun
