What tabix options should I use to create the same tbi file as made by rvtest? #58

Hello,

I have both MetaScore.assoc.gz and MetaCov.assoc.gz files that are identical to the ones generated by rvtest. Now I want to create their corresponding tbi files that should also be identical to the ones generated by rvtest. I tried "tabix -p vcf myfile.MetaScore.assoc.gz" but the resulted myfile.MetaScore.assoc.gz.tbi are not identical to the one generated by rvtest. I guess it was because I used the wrong options/parameters to run tabix. Would you please show me the correct way to run tabix to get the tbi files? Thank you!

I have similar request. I used rvtest to create MetaScore.assoc.gz file but I cannot view its content. The associated tbi file is only 1kb. I tried recreating it but also realise there is no preset for MetaScore.assoc.gz

Is it possible to recreate tbi file for MetaScore.assoc.gz files?

@dajiangliu tabix can do that. Can you paste the command?
