Help : Counting K-mers from multiple files

[Srividhya-Sainath]

Hi Team,

I am working on a project wherein I have to count k-mers from genome assemblies. I, therefore, have to run this across multiple files. As per the documentation (txt: A plain text file with one path per line. This way, multiple input files can be processed at once.), I created a .txt file as instructed and ran the code ./gerbil -k31 -ofasta Input_Gerbil.txt build output.

I get a segmentation error. The code runs fine for a single .fasta file though.

I am relatively new in this field, could you please suggest what or where am I going wrong

Thank you

Hi,

I think there must be spaces between the parameters and the associated options. Please try the command ./gerbil -k 31 -o fasta Input_Gerbil.txt build output.

If the error still occurs, try to specify absolute paths in the Input_Gerbil.txt file.

Best regards!
