Hi!

I have previously used your tool with great succes, but when I tried to upload the same data today (paired-end fastq files), I repeatedly get the same error message:

Error: File upload stopped by extension

I have tried with both zipped (.gz) and unzipped files, but no succes. Could you please advice me on how to proceed? Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Mette

I just ran two files through Prinseq as paired end.  And it worked fine. They were named "one.fastq" and "two.fastq".

I also gzipped them and they became "one.fastq.gz" and "two.fastq.gz" and this also worked.

I also renamed them to "one.fq" and two.fq" and this extension also worked.

It even ran when I [mis] labeled them as ".fasta"

What are the names of your fiiles?
