Description

I have two sample to detect orfs. One is done but another gets following bug.

What I Did


ribotricer detect-orfs --bam ${file} --ribotricer_index ${ribotricer_index_tsv} --prefix ${file/bam/} --report_all --phase_score_cutoff 0
Sep 14 10:25:03 ..... started ribotricer detect-orfs

Sep 14 10:25:07 ... started reading bam file

Sep 14 10:25:10 ... started calculating metagene profiles. This may take a long time...

Sep 14 10:25:10 ... started plotting metagene profiles
Sep 14 10:25:10 ... started inferring P-site offsets
WARNING: no periodic read length found... using cutoff 0.0

The difference between the two files is not significant, but read counts of successful one is more than another one. image image

Is this an error caused by the read counts?

This is not a bug. Ribotricer could not find evidence for periodicity in any of the read lengths. You can lower the periodicity threshold and see if that helps.
