In the December 2011 version of MacQIIME (MacQIIME_1.4.0-20111216), there was an error in split_libraries.py. This error was fixed in the SVN code for QIIME, and since it's a big bug I made a fix in MacQIIME as well. If you have MacQIIME version 1.4.0-20111216 installed, you can fix it as follows. The latest download on this site, MacQIIME_1.4.0a-20120108, already includes this fix. If you have this latest version, you don't need to do anything. 1. Download the fixDownload FixSplitLibraries_MacQIIME1.4.0.tgz into your Downloads folder (Do not open it with the Archive Utility graphical tool -- we'll unzip it in the command line).2. Unzipping the filesOpen the Terminal and cd into the downloads folder:cd ~/Downloads/ and untar the file: tar -xvf FixSplitLibraries_MacQIIME1.4.0.tgz and cd into the new directory: cd FixSplitLibraries_MacQIIME1.4.0 3. Run the fix-it scriptRun the script. It will ask you for your administrative password. You have to have sudo privileges to successfully run the script../FixSplitLibraries_MacQIIME.s That should do it! It just replaced two libraries, and the test script for split_libraries.py. |
