Hello,

I am a researcher at CSIR-Central Drug Research Institute, Lucknow, India and for one of my studies I have been using GSEA windows 64-bit application for a year now and performing GSEA analysis on my Transcriptomics data. But, this time I am getting the same error message despite the fact that I am using the same input files that I used for previous analysis.

Expression file is not getting uploaded.

Here is the error message that I am getting:
<Error Details>

The file that I am trying to upload is attached below in.txt format. Please help me with the issue. I have prepared this file myself as I used to prepare earlier. I am not able to figure out what is the mistake that I am committing or there is some software issue. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software.

Thanks

MOIN

Hi Moin,

I took a look at the file you sent to the gsea-team address, it looks like the issue here is that you've used the .txt file extension instead of the .gct extension. The wrong extension has caused GSEA to attempt to read the file using the incorrect parsing method. Changing the file extension to .gct should allow the file to load.

Let me know if you have additional questions after attempting this fix
