When that is done, you should be okai. Regarding 'proper' use of the wizard/gui, try of of the examples in the example directory. Running those shuold give you a feeling of what needs to be done. The examples should work. Most parameter fields have an associated info string that explains briefly what is expected. HTH Peter

How to use phenix for SAD data
by pramod＠cdfd.org.in 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi all i am using the Phenix-GUI first time ,for solving the sad data. I processed my raw data with the mosflm.Further output of the mosflm were used for getting other information or working through this data.so, i started with the strteiges of solve through mad. after setinmg up all the anamolous parameters ,this is always displaying red in the very first in the setup anamolous data gui with the information that format error.i used the format ccp4 unmerged i.e the direct output of the mosflm after integration.i also used the conversion of mtz file into hkl through ccp4 scaling and merging intensities-in which one option i used is the get output as unmerged intensities but, that also didnot worked. suggestions will be appreciated and also i want the deatiled information about how to use the phenix gui properly. with regards Pramod Kumar Junior Research Fellow c/o-Dr.Shekher C Mande Center for DNA Fingerprinting and Diognostics ECIL road Nacharam Hyderabad-76 -

Problem on Running Phenix
by 崔中利 06 Jul '06

06 Jul '06

Dear All, I have just installed phenix 1.24.1b and tested my data on this version of Phenix. I tried Autosol. There should be 4 windows to finish the parameter setup according to the documents. But I met a problem after setting the pathway of file of protein sequence (2nd window). The window didn't change to green after I set the pathway and pressed Continue. But from the CPU indicator I knew it was running (100% CPU occupation). And from the log file, I found the program set the resolution automaticlly (3rd window). But after serveral hours' running, I get nothing. What's more, the running sequence was a bit different to the online document of Phenix. The setup window (1st window) appeared first, then the Autosol program window. I don't know what wrong happened to my running, problem of software or my computer. Zhongli

AUTOBUILD CC
by Noinaj 06 Jul '06

06 Jul '06

Hi, I am new to PHENIX and would like to get a bit of guidance. I am helping a friend with her structure using SAD phasing. She has 4 Se/molecule with 4 mol/ASU. We used Solve to find her sites with nice occupancy, and then ran AUTOBUILD, just to see how it did. It is returning map correlation coeff, Z-scores, etc. What are good numbers for these parameters? Thanks in advance. Cheers, Nick

Re: [phenixbb] problem when installing phenix 1.24.1b

This most likely means you have downloaded the binairies that do not match your machine architecture. See the readme file: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------- Currently, the following Redhat Linux platforms are tested, and therefore supported for the distribution: - Redhat 8.0 - Redhat 9.0 - Redhat Enterprise Workstation 3 [+/- x86_64] - Redhat Enterprise Server 4.2 [+/- x86_64] - Fedora Core 3 [+/- x86_64] - Fedora Core 5 [+/- x86_64] Redhat versions prior to 8.0 are not supported. PHENIX should also install on other Linux platforms such as Mandrake, or SuSe. There are 4 different Linux installations available, based on the version of the kernel (2.4 or 2.6) and the CPU type (ix86 or x86_64). If it isn't clear which you need then type this command on the machine in question: % uname -rm The first item is the kernel version, the second is the machine hardware. Please download the appropriate installer based on this table: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - | hardware \ kernel | 2.4 | 2.6 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - | ix86 | intel-linux-2.4 | intel-linux-2.6 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - | x86_64 | intel-linux-2.4-x86_64| intel-linux-2.6- x86_64| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Currently, the following other Unix platforms are tested, and therefore supported for the distribution: - Compaq Tru64 5.1 - SGI Irix 6.5[*] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------ i.e., check if if you have a 2.4 or 2.6 linux kernel and what your cpu type is. for me, I get this: 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp i686 i.e, i need the 2.6 , ix86 version. HTH Peter Hi, I met a problem when installing the phenix 1.24.1a. The installer gave me an error information "neither source nor binary availabe, exiting installation". What's wrong with my installation? Zhongli _______________________________________________ phenixbb mailing list phenixbb(a)phenix-online.org http://www.phenix-online.org/mailman/listinfo/phenixbb

run phenix in vitue linux environment
by 崔中利 05 Jul '06

05 Jul '06

I installed phenix 1.1a in a virtue Fedora Core 3 machine with VMware workstation 5 under windows XP on a IBM X31 notebook. When I run autosol (sad) to solve my protein, the system gave me error information "the connection to strategy disrupted" after all parameters are set, but it seems that the program is still running (for the window is still green) . However, the Autosol is showed as Finished in Job control window. Even if I leave the program running overnight, there is no solution produced. Can anyome give me some comments? Zhongli
