  • why I have a velvetg blank script?

    Hey there,
    I came across this really odd situation and have no idea about what to do. I’ve just installed Velvet-1.2.10 and realized that the “velvetg” script is actually in blank!

    ~/velvet_1.2.10
    more velvet*
    ::::::::::::::
    velvetg
    ::::::::::::::

    ******** velveth: Not a text file ********

    ./velvetg = return nothing
    ./velveth = return usage/help

    I installed velvet following the manual.
    I’ve just run the velveth and no error was reported.

    ./velveth out_name 31 -fastq.gz ~/read_1_PAIRED.fq.gz ~/read_2_PAIRED.fq.gz

    But, running the following return “-bash: ./velvetg: Text file busy”

    ./velvetg out_name -cov_cutoff 4 > ./velvetg out_name -min_contig_lgth 100

    Could anyone help me? I believe I am missing something but I could not realize what.
    Thanks

    Are you sure that velveth produced the expected output?
    What files did you get in the output directory after velveth ran?

    If you think it didn't install properly the first time, you could download it again
    and repeat the installation.

    After compiling with 'make', you should have a directory named bin, with binary files named velveth and velvetg if make is successful.

      Hi mastal, thanks for replying.
      velveth produced the correct files: Log Roadmaps Sequences

      I am installing it again to see what happens. Interestingly (maybe because of the version) there is no velvet/bin/ directory and the velveth and velvetg are inside velvet/ alongside other files and directories.

        Now working!

        Cloned from Github Reinstalled and it is working.
        git clone https://github.com/dzerbino/velvet.git
        cd velvet
        make ’CATEGORIES=300’ ’MAXKMERLENGTH=57’ ’OPENMP=1’
        ./velveth
        ./velvetg --> both running and binaries as velvetg was empty before. Also no “-bash: ./velvetg: Text file busy” error.

        Thanks

          Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
          by seqadmin


          Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
