Hi!

I'm trying to install RAxML to make a gene tree, but I'm having trouble setting it up. I followed the instructions on the website:

http://sco.h-its.org/exelixis/web/software/raxml/hands_on.html

My directory is: C:\Users\grads\Documents\RAxML\Standard-RAxML-master

When i try to type make -fMakefile.gcc i get the message "'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." How can I fix this?

P.S. I also have Cygwin installed if that helps with anything.

Thanks!

Either you do not have the necessary tools to compile software in that computer, or it is not in a directory where Windows searches for programs. Sorry, I do not know Windows, but some googling of how to compile in Windows should help you.

Also, I remember hearing that someone here in this list has pre-compiled Windows executables recently and made them available, so if you search the list you might find that.

Good luck
J

Hey,

you can install already pre-compiled raxml program. Install files are also located at github as well. That tutorial is not for windows compiling.

Hello,

Actually, you don't need install it. What you need to do is just download the windows Executables edition, unpack it  and put your data files(*.phy) in the same folder. Also you need create a batch file with the notepad in your windows, type the following scripts(the red letters) into the batch file and save. Doubleclick the batch file to run it.

for standard bootstrapping: 
raxmlHPC -m GTRGAMMA -p 12345 -# 1000 -s primates.phy -n T13
raxmlHPC -m GTRGAMMA -p 12345 -b 12345 -# 1000 -s primates.phy -n T14
raxmlHPC -m GTRCAT -p 12345 -f b -t RAxML_bestTree.T13 -z RAxML_bootstrap.T14 -n T15 -o Tarsius_syrichta,Lemur_catta

for rapid bootstrapping:
raxmlHPC -f a -m GTRGAMMA -p 12345 -x 12345 -# 1000 -s primates.phy -n T20 -o Tarsius_syrichta,Lemur_catta
