error about the remove.seqs

mothur bugs
1

I am a freshman about using this software, thus maybe my question is very amateur.
I have download the example data from the website. But now I was stopped with the remove.seqs


mothur > remove.seqs(fasta=stability.trim.contigs.good.unique.good.filter.unique.precluster.fasta, accnos=stability.trim.contigs.good.unique.good.filter.unique.precluster.denovo.uchime.accnos) then, I got this result: unable to open stability .trim.contigs.good.unique.good.filter.unique.precluster.denovo.uchime [ERROR]:did not complete remove.seqs

Please help me and thank you very much. I am confused about this for 2 days.

Hi!

Are those the exact commands and error messages that you are entering? Because they don’t seem to go together. Could you perhaps post a screen shot? Your error message suggests you have a space in your file name and are excluding the “.accnos” part of the file name.
