sub.sample won't write names file

Hi All,

Using latest mothur version (1.26.0) on OS X mountain lion). While trying to create a normalized data set (after cleaning up sequences according to SOP+removing singletons), I’ve tryind running sub.sample on fasta, name, group and shared. Mothur has been able to write all files, except names. Any idea why? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Gil

** - it seems to be trying to run a rename command, and there is a syntax error… ?

Hi again,

I guess this is a known issue - I couldn’t find the executable for 1.25 for Mac (hoping it’ll work well with 10.8).

Thanks
Gil

This is fixed in version 1.27.0, releasing today.

Thanks! works well.
