Dear JWangLu,
This message would come up when the software tool attempts to read the mzML file that is referenced by the pepXML file.
It appears that your input pepXML file is not correctly referencing the mzML data file. Perhaps the issue is with the file paths, I am not sure without looking at the file.
If you can check the pepXML file for msms_run_summary tags and verify they are pointing to existing files.
For example, for files:
c:\TPP\data\class\Yeast\data\OR20080317_S_SILAC-LH_1-1_01.mzML
c:\TPP\data\class\Yeast\data\OR20080320_S_SILAC-LH_1-1_11.mzML
msms_run_summary entries should look like this:
> grep "<msms_run_summary" interact.pep.xml
<msms_run_summary base_name="c:\TPP\data\class\Yeast\data\OR20080317_S_SILAC-LH_1-1_01" msManufacturer="UNKNOWN" msModel="UNKNOWN" raw_data_type="raw" raw_data=".mzML">
<msms_run_summary base_name="c:\TPP\data\class\Yeast\data\OR20080320_S_SILAC-LH_1-1_11" msManufacturer="UNKNOWN" msModel="UNKNOWN" raw_data_type="raw" raw_data=".mzML">
Cheers,
