Hi there, Apologies if this has been reported before, but the autobuild job I tried to run last night failed after a short while... The job was started from the command line using: phenix.autobuild data=../mydata_free.mtz seq_file=../protein.fasta map_file=../ccp4i/protein_phaser.1_parrot2.mtz input_map_labels='parrot.F_phi.F parrot.F_phi.phi None' And it got to the point where it was trying to submit the three jobs before it died as follows: Splitting work into 3 jobs and running with 1 processors using sh background=False in /home/stepheng/Projects/my_protein/autobuild/AutoBuild_run_3_/TEMP0 Starting job 1...Log will be: /home/stepheng/Projects/my_protein/autobuild/AutoBuild_run_3_/TEMP0/RUN_FILE_1.log *************ERROR ENDING ******************* ******************************************************************************** Failed to carry out AutoBuild_build_cycle: child process stderr output: command: 'sh /home/stepheng/Projects/my_protein/autobuild/AutoBuild_run_3_/TEMP0/RUN_FILE_1' /home/stepheng/Projects/my_protein/autobuild/AutoBuild_run_3_/TEMP0/RUN_FILE_1.sh: 5: Syntax error: Bad fd number ******************************************************************************** *************ERROR ENDING ******************* I think the problem might be that the RUN_FILE_1.sh script seems to use a bash command/redirection that is not implemented in plain old 'sh' spec, and thus not supported by dash (the lean version of sh that ships with ubuntu)? If I change the #! line of RUN_FILE_1.sh to call /bin/bash rather than /bin/sh the script seems to run to completion... Is there any easy way to change the script template to use /bin/bash or remove the offending command? I'm running phenix dev-550 on an x86 ubuntu 10.10 machine. Thanks, Stephen P.S. The reason I'm trying to run autobuild from the command line rather from the GUI is that the GUI seems to crash every time I give autobuild a sequence file in either the FASTA or PIR format. Is there another format I should be using? -- Dr Stephen Graham 1851 Research Fellow Cambridge Institute for Medical Research Wellcome Trust/MRC Building Addenbrooke's Hospital, Hills Road Cambridge, CB2 0XY, UK Phone: +44 1223 762 638
