Doesn't that suggest that something didn't work correctly? Are you absolutely sure that there is a file by that name in that location?

hi haddadfatiha62 ,

I added (code) markup to your post for increased readability. You can do this by selecting the text and clicking the 101010 button. When you compose or edit a post that button is in your toolbar, see image below:

Its not finding the adapter sequence file TruSeq3-PE.fa. Adapter sequence files are in the adapters folder within the Trimmomatic folder. You should provide the correct path to that adapter .fa file in your command as shown below.

ILLUMINACLIP: path to your trimmomatic folder/adapters/TruSeq3-PE.fa
