Hi all,

I'm trying to use the varianteffectpredictor.pl to analyse the content of a VCF file produced by mpileup/bcftools.

It raised an error when a insertion was submitted. My minimal input raising an error is:

echo -e 'chr1\t10000\t.\tT\tTA' | ./variant_effect_predictor.pl --format vcf

-------------------- EXCEPTION --------------------
MSG: Start must be less than or equal to end+1

STACK toplevel ./variant_effect_predictor.pl:309
Ensembl API version = 61
---------------------------------------------------

what's the problem ? Should I remove all the indels from the VCF ?

Thanks,

Pierre
