[maker-devel] Private message regarding: MAKER run error

The issue is with Berkley DB. BioPerl is using perl’s DB_File module to index the fastas. 

1. Make sure you do not have an extremely large number of reads in the fasta files (i.e. mRNA-seq data which cannot be used directly as input to MAKER, you must assemble it first into transcriptome contigs)
2. Reinstall perl and compile against the newly installed BerkleyDB libraries.
3. Remove the brew installed BerkleyDB and use perl’s precompiled DB_File module.

You can count reads in your fasta input using this command (replace file.fasta)

grep -c “>” file.fasta

If your counts are really high (i.e. higher than a few hundred thousand maximum), then you have a data issue. You are either giving too much data or the wrong data as input.

MAKER can’t handle raw data. You must first assemble it using using like Trinity for example for mRNA.
