Dear colleagues,

I am strugling with dating a phylogenetic tree. I tried two options:
1) iqtree2 -s ALN_FILE --date DATE_FILE
this approach gave nonsense values at the tree nodes like
-3321021-09-06, -1234427-11-10 etc
2) if I tried to date an existing contree from the same alignment
iqtree2 -s ALN_FILE --date DATE_FILE -te TREE_FILE
 I received:
"ERROR: Tree taxon XXX does not appear in the alignment" 
for a number of taxa. I am used the same alignment, so where is the problem?
Any advice is appreciated.

Regards,
Alexander

Hi Alexander,
If it's possible, could you send me the data so I can inspect?
Cheers,
Hien
