Has anyone out there used MetAmos with a single read fastq file? I've downloaded the binary with Blast DBs and tried using initPipeline -q -1 myfile.fastq which seems to work, but then when I do runPipeline it errors out at the MapReads step with Bowtie2 giving an error that sounds like it's looking for paired data. Am I missing a parameter somewhere?

I'm using single reads, so the -m is for specifying mate-paired reads, and the -i parameter is for insert size - I can't give an insert size as that only applies to paired reads... right?
I believe my problem has to do with the binary download. I have had *slightly* more luck getting some of the pipeline running with the version 1.3 download, but there are several parts of the pipeline that I cannot get installed and working on my system (Ubuntu 12.04), with Glimmer-MG, Kraken and MetaPhyler all giving me fits, never installing all the way. It seems like to get a lot of this working right you have to be an expert in ALL of the languages used... shell scripting, R, Perl, Python, java, c++.

Ah, I see now you mentioned that. I've been trying off and on with folks to get the 1.2 binary to work, but it has had several problems, including the one you mentioned. The most recent was that it was referencing a path that didn't exist.
Anyway, I've been a little out of the loop the last few weeks, but I see that a 1.3 frozen binary is now available. This at least will make your set up a little easier...

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...-
