Re: [Mauve-users] stripsubsetLCBs error

[Aaron D. <aar...@ut...>]

Hi Susan, what operating system are you using, and what operating system
was the alignment done with?
Have you tried moving the sequence files, alignment file, and .bbcols to
be located in the same directory?
If done carefully, it should be possible to do a total search & replace
on pathnames to strip them out of the XMFA (e.g. to replace the
directory name with nothing), which might help if there are some
troublesome characters in the path names. It might also help us help you
if you were to copy & paste the paths involved into the next email.

The suggestion to improve the error message about which file failed to
open is a good one, I agree it's unfortunately generic and vague.
Chances are high that it's failing on the first sequence file in your
alignment.

One last question, did you run the original alignment from a single
multifasta, or with each genome sequence in its own file?

Best,
-Aaron
