Invalid meta/single genome type specified.

[Emma Timmins-Schiffman]

I'm trying to do an anonymous prediction on some metagenomic data I have, but I keep on getting the error "Invalid meta/single genome type specified."  I followed the instructions in the wiki exactly, the only difference being that my .fna file is in a different directory so I entered the file path after the -i argument.

Emma$ prodigal -i [file path to file.fna] -o coords.gbk -a proteins.faa -p anon

Hi,

The wiki currently references a future version of Prodigal (3.0), which will use that syntax.  For the current version, "-p meta" is still the way to specify metagenomic mode.  (Sorry for this confusion; when I began to write the wiki, it was under the assumption 3.0 would be out soon, but this did not turn out to be the case).

regards,

doug
