FrameDP installation issue

Has anyone ever encountered issues installing FrameDP on a local computer? I followed installation instructions, ran the FrameDP_check_install.pl script, and received the following errors:

FrameDP (and even all of its subdirectories) were set in my $PATH. I cannot figure out what I need to do to get this to run properly.

Unable to read /usr/local/framedp/bin/../test/check_install.37245/HuSep2007Test.refdb.blastx

Error is clear based on that message.

I get that's part of the problem, and yet, it's there, so I don't know why this is an issue.

But is it readable by whichever account you are running this from?

Meaning a permissions issue? I changed permissions for the entire FrameDP directory at the very beginning.

Correct. Read permissions. What does ls -l /usr/local/framedp/bin/../test/check_install.37245/HuSep2007Test.refdb.blastx show?

using chmod 777:

-rwxrwxrwx  1 Forthman  admin  0 Jun 20 11:14 /usr/local/framedp/bin/../test/check_install.37245/HuSep2007Test.refdb.blastx

I also looked at FrameDP_train.pl line 772 referenced below this particular error message and here is what the line looks like:

my $f_blast = new IO::File($blastresultfile,"r") or Carp::croak("Unable to read >$blastresultfile<\n");

You shouldn't need 777 (neither should you use those as a good practice when not needed). It is possible that one of the directories higher up in the hierarchy may not have the necessary permissions.

But if I applied this to the FrameDP directory itself, should this not have taken care of that issue? EDIT: I've just checked the permissions for files within several subdirectories and all are readable.

It everything is 777 from that point on it should. Are you running this validation as account Forthman?

Yes and yes. I noticed that each time I attempted check_install, it would look for a test/check_install.[some_random_number] directory, with the blastx file, though with the extension .txt. I edited the script to remove that random number and eliminated the .txt entension. It is now able to read the blastx file.

But...now I am running into other issues. The first one is

I've even cd to the directory formatdb is in and tried to execute it manually by typing ./formatdb, as well as without ./, but it states "cannot execute binary file".

DId you download FrameDP from this link? That looks like a linux only install and will not work on OS X.

What do you see if you do file formatdb ? I have a feeling that you are trying to use the software (at least parts of it like blast) on wrong OS.

ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.4.1, not stripped

It must because I am using OS X

As I suspected this is not going to work. At a minimum you could try to download the OS X blast executables but you may run into some other issue with other programs that are needed.

Time to look for an alternative software.
