BLAT CALL FAILED! (New problem for existing issue) about aligngraph HOT 9 OPEN

Hi,

I believe this is due to the file format. AlignGraph requires FASTA format, but looks like your file is in FASTQ format.

Hi there, I am having the same issue on fasta files:
AlignGraph --read1 ../S25_R1_trimmed.fasta --read2 ../S25_R2_trimmed.fasta --contig scaffold.fa --genome reference_sequence_20150113.fsa --distanceLow 35 --distanceHigh 1150 --extendedContig extended_scaffold.fa --remainingContig rmaining_scaffold.fa

but nothing more than this message as a result:
"By Ergude Bao, CS Department, UC-Riverside. All Rights Reserved

BLAT CALL FAILED!"

which is rather uninformative.
my BLAT installation works fine by itself.
is there a log that can be checked somewhere? what could be the issue?

Hi,

Sorry for reply late. Please use BLAT version v34 instead.

@baoe , please, remake AlignGraph, there is no way to recompile blat v34, man! 2022!

@cistarsa , do you have binary blat v34? Could you make a shared link to us??

from aligngraph.

alas, I do not have a blat binary as I no longer have access to the workstation I was using then....here's a repo of older blats

from aligngraph.

@cistarsa , yes, thank you, but it is not compiling... I think new versions of kernel, gcc, build-essentials, etc using here.. that is the problem. Much work to do in blat v34 code to be compiled. Then, a new version of AlignGraph would be the best to do.

Updating:

I've got it! Three things to compile blast v34:

1. In blastSrc/inc/common.mk:

Remove or comment from "# Stronger warning checks, and warnings-->errors, for libraries and CGIs:" to "endif # Apply the stronger checks to all code on our development machine:"

2. Type command line MACHTYPE=x86_64 ; export $MACHTYPE

3. Type command line mkdir ~/bin/$MACHTYPE ; cd blastSrc && make ; make MACHTYPE=$MACHTYPE

If any permission denied errors appears during cd blastSrc && make, just jump to make MACHTYPE=$MACHTYPE
