Since I’m using your output, no external tools are called, it just parses the reports already written in the directory and finishes.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This suggests that any issue is either with your version of Perl or a component MAKER is using (such as BioPerl). I am using Perl 5.16.3 and BioPerl 1.007002 (the CPAN version).</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Note if you are using BioPerl live or the GitHub release it still shows version 1.007002 but will not necessarily match the CPAN version as the GitHub version counter does not get iterated with each commit. So make sure you are not accidentally using BioPerl live from GitHub (only use CPAN or let MAKER do the install of BioPerl if it’s not system wide). Also you are using Exonerate 2.4 instead of the stable 2.2 release. That shouldn’t make any difference since I am just parsing your output that is already in the folder and not running exonerate. But it may be worth an off chance look.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Finally what you may want to do is download a new version of Perl, then install that and run MAKER with that version just to make sure Perl or something installed inside your Perl is not generating thee issue.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I would try the current stable release of perl (since it comes all ready to go - no compiling needed). Alternatively you can also try perlbrew to get a specific version (but it will have to compile against local libraries).</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">—Carson</div><div class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Apr 17, 2018, at 6:54 AM, Jacques Dainat <<a href="mailto:jacques.dainat@nbis.se" class="">jacques.dainat@nbis.se</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class="">I tried with the last version 3.01.02-beta, still the same error.<div class=""><br class=""><div class="">I agree that it could be something wrong with the input GFF3 file, but I don’t find what it could be.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I have loaded the whole folder as user guest_5602.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I’m looking forward to hearing from you.</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
