Great work! Under what license is this code being released here?

When trying to use RaptorX on WSL (Windows Subsystem Linux Ubuntu) -
it gives an error at line 95 in RaptorX_Property_Fast/util/SS8_Predict/bin/run_raptorx-ss8.pl

" open fhCNFOutput,"<$FNTMPRST" or die $!; "

The CNF results file was not previously generated ( $FNTMPRST="$jobtmpdir/cnfsseight.$jobid.result"; )

This file was supposed to be generated by:
RaptorX_Property_Fast/util/SS8_Predict/bin/bcnf_mpitp

Which is a ELF 32-bit executable, and apparently on WSL Ubuntu precompiled 32bit binaries don't run, only recompiled ones. ( even with i386 libraries - more details: https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/266908-command-prompt-console-bash-on-ubuntu-on-windo/suggestions/13377507-please-add-32-bit-elf-support-to-the-kernel ).

And I couldn't find the source for bcnf_mpitp in the repository to recompile it ...

This problem seems to appear only on WSL Ubuntu, as tested on a native Ubuntu 16.04 bcnf_mpitp works fine ...

Thanks,

During runtime several tmp folders are created in root installation folder. This is not very convenient, could you make it so you could specify tmp folder yourself?

I get a Segmentation fault at hhblits (RaptorX_Property_Fast/Fast_TGT.sh line 120-138), simillar with the problem described at link below:
soedinglab/hh-suite#42

However, it seems to work well after I use hhblits from https://github.com/soedinglab/hh-suite , instead of the RaptorX_Property_Fast/hhsuite-2.0.16-linux-x86_64/bin/hhblits.

Also, there is the same problem when using hhmake from RaptorX_Property_Fast/util/hhmake ( RaptorX_Property_Fast/util/genMAIN.sh line 26 ) but the problem seems to be solved when using the hhmake from HH-suite newly installed from soedinglab.

Hi,

In line 3 of run_raptorx-ss8.pl RaptorX-Property is assumed to be in the home directory:
$raptorx=$ENV{"HOME"}."/RaptorX_Property_Fast";
If it's not (e.g. in a network filesystem) this will make it crash with the error "Failed to generate TGT file". This might be related to issue #6.

When I try to install the RaptorX on WSL Ubuntu 18.04, I got the following error:

root@linqin-GF63-8RD:/home/linqin/RaptorX_Property_Fast-master/source_code# make

--- A3M_To_TGT ----

What's problem with the installation?
Thanks,

I ran:

cd source_code/
make
cd ../
./setup.pl
./oneline_command.sh example/T0530.fasta tmp 1 1

But I got the error message:

Running Fast_TGT to generate TGT file for sequence T0530
Failed in generating TGT file for sequence T0530

Was there an update changed something (since I followed the README instructions exactly)?
