Hi,

I am a newbie to RNA seq and differential gene expression and I'm struggling with stringtie.

After merging all my stringtie outputs into a reference .gtf I've got same error messages for every sample.

samopen] no @SQ lines in the header.
[sam_read1] missing header? Abort!

I've used the following command:

stringtie -e -B -p 4 -G /merged_gtf_location/stringie_merged.gtf -o stringtie_out.gtf sample1.gtf --rf

When I converted my hisat2 outputs into .bam files I checked for headers and also running stringtie the first time didn't give me that error. I guess it's just a very stupid mistake but I really can't figure it out on my own and I'd be really happy for any help.

Apparently I didn't. Wow, that's embarrassing! I've checked my command so many times and it really didn't occur to me... Thank you!

Umm, where in that command line are you telling StringTie where your bam is?
