multiqc could not find my files

Hi everyone, I was running MultiQC in my current directory where my fastp report files are located but could not get any result (No analysis results found. Cleaning up..). do you have any solutions?enter image description here

multiqc

Multiqc looks for specific file names. Is fastp results there? Can you show a tree of your files or show the fastp files with find -type -f -name "*fastp.json"

Hi barslmn, there are only fastp report files.

tree
.
├── report_SRR*44.json
├── report_SRR*45.json
├── report_SRR*46.json
├── report_SRR*47.json
├── report_SRR*48.json
├── report_SRR*49.json
├── report_SRR*50.json

These file names should end with "*fastp.json". Try renaming and running the multiqc again.

You can see the search patterns for every MultiQC module in the docs. The Fastp module searches for filenames ending in fastp.json (see docs)

Either rename your files, or create a config file for MultiQC where you overwrite this search pattern (see docs).

it work well. Thank you all.

Great! Please mark as the answer then (green tick).
