Hi all,

I am trying to set up a pipeline to analyse my small RNA seq and I'm having trouble with the trimming part using Kraken. I understand that it has to be something with the geometry/configuration files but I can't seem to fix it. Do you have any suggestions?

Using Sequence Imp pipeline

~/bin/seqimp-17-087/bin/imp_commandline.pl --step=organise --description=<Description file> \
 --user-configuration=<Configuration_SeqImp_default.txt> --dataDir=data

I get this...

Pipeline version:   17-087

This is the configuration file selected: /Users/Benoah/WDirectory/20190506_Kraken/seqimp/Configuration_SeqImp_default.txt

With the configuration file as follow

Name    File     Geometry   Barcodes     3p_ad  3p_seq_insert

And if I just use reaper,

reaper -i RDVJ272.fastq.gz -basename ../reaper/RDVJ272.out.fastq.gz -meta ../reaper/barcodes -geom 3p-bc

I get this
