Hi.
I'm trying to use tabix for downloading variants from specific genomic regions, from the recently submitted phase 3 1000 genomes vcf files, here:
ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/1000gen...ease/20130502/
for example, I tried:
tabix –h ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/1000gen...notypes.vcf.gz 3:43407818-43663560 > myfile.vcf
but it did not work. I got:
[tabix] the index file either does not exist or is older than the vcf file. Please reindex.
of course, the ftp site contains the index file, and its date is later from the vcf file.
This is the first time I'm trying to use tabix, and I don't know why it doesn't work?
Thanks in advance.
