Persistent ERROR:001 on Job 719498: Passed all strict terminal formatting checks

[陈华东]

Dear Tanya and the FUMA Team,

I am writing to seek your help regarding a persistent ERROR:001 I am encountering with my GWAS summary statistics upload.

I have carefully read the tutorial and the troubleshooting guidelines, and I have rigorously checked my file in the Linux terminal. Here are the specific checks I have already performed:

1. Strictly 9 columns: I verified using awk '{print NF}' that every single row has exactly 9 columns.

2. No illegal characters: I confirmed there are absolutely no quotes ("), commas (,), or missing values (NA) in the file.

3. Valid Chromosomes & P-values: The CHR column only contains numbers 1-22, and the P column contains valid numbers (no 0s, no values > 1).

4. Valid rsIDs & Coordinates: The file uses GRCh37 (hg19) coordinates, and SNP column contains standard rsIDs.

To completely rule out any internet connection timeout or large file upload corruption, I created a 10,000-row mini subset of my data and submitted it (Job ID: 719498). Unfortunately, it still failed instantly with ERROR:001.

Since the file format strictly follows the requirements on my end, could you please kindly check the backend server logs for Job ID 719498? I would greatly appreciate it if you could point out the specific parsing error the system is throwing.

Below are the header and the first 4 lines of my input file for your reference (Tab-delimited):

Thank you very much for your time and assistance!

Hi Huadong, 

These jobs 719498 and 719498 were already removed so I can't check what went wrong. 
You can send  your input file to fuma....@gmail.com so I can take a look.
