Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Unknown trimmer

Hi!

I'm trying to run trimmomatic:

java -jar /home/usr/program/Trimmomatic-0.39/trimmomatic-0.39.jar SE file_input.fastq.gz file_output.fastq.gz LLUMINACLIP:TruSeq3-SE.fa:2:30:10

and running into the following error:

TrimmomaticSE: Started with arguments: hepg_1.fastq.gz h_1.fastq.gz LLUMINACLIP:TruSeq3-SE.fa:2:30:1
Automatically using 1 threads **Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Unknown trimmer: LLUMINACLIP** at org.usadellab.trimmomatic.trim.TrimmerFactory.makeTrimmer(TrimmerFactory.java:73)
    at org.usadellab.trimmomatic.Trimmomatic.createTrimmers(Trimmomatic.java:59)
    at org.usadellab.trimmomatic.TrimmomaticSE.run(TrimmomaticSE.java:318)
    at org.usadellab.trimmomatic.Trimmomatic.main(Trimmomatic.java:85)

How do I fix this? Or you can explain me what does trimmer mean?

Thanks in advance!
