Hi everyone,
I want to use rnammer with my favorite annotation pipeline prokka (as a supposedly more sensitive option than the default-tool barnap). The prokka documentation states that rnammer needs hmmer version 2 (NOT the current version 3), so I want to install it on my system.
The Installation-instructions seem pretty straightforward (unpack--> "make check"-->"./configure"-->"make install").
However when I run "make check", I get the message :
make: *** No rule to make target 'check';. Stop.
when I run "./configure --prefix=/home/me/test" the script seems to run without error, but when i follow up with "make install" I get the message:
mkdir -p /home/me/test/bin
mkdir -p /home/me/test/man/man1
for file in hmmalign hmmbuild hmmcalibrate hmmconvert hmmemit hmmfetch hmmindex hmmpfam hmmsearch
do
cp src/$file /home/me/test/bin/
done
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmalign': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmbuild': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmcalibrate': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmconvert': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmemit': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmfetch': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmindex': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmpfam': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'src/hmmsearch': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
This happens with or without the configure-option '--prefix' and with or without admin rights.
Any hints on what to do?
Hi,
I see the installation instructions go:
curl -O ftp://selab.janelia.org/pub/software/hmmer/2.3.2/hmmer-2.3.2.tar.gz tar -xzf hmmer-2.3.2.tar.gz cd hmmer-2.3.2 ./configure make make check
That should work, it does for me.
Yes, that was it!
I had went with the instructions for the binary version by mistake. So no wonder it did not work (Stupid me!).
Your instructions (for the src-version) work perfectly.
Thanks!

Sorry, wasn't sure how this worked. I had already upvoted your answer and thought closing the thread as "solved" would be the thing to do.
I marked your answer as accepted now.
Thank you. Yeah, moderation --> close is for when you wanna bypass the Q&A workflow and mark a question outside the scope of the forum. The usual workflow is ask --> choose one or more of the answers as the accepted answer(s). Can be kinda confusing at times, I guess.
