What Does The Plink Error: "Could Not Place Marker For Left Window Edge" Mean?

Hi,

I keep getting the following error message from plink:

Does anyone know what does this error means?

Thanks in advance

Can you add the command you are trying to run?

Maybe there are no SNPs in that region? There are also options for Mb, Kb --from-kb, --from-mb.

Can i do something about this? tell plink to ignore this for example? As I would like to keep my window range small.

How do you mean "ignore"? Maybe --silent

As far as i know, plink not always report results from snps. How can i make it to report association results even if there is no snp?

If there are no SNPs in that region, you still want association results based only on covariates? I don't think this can be done in plink.
