not able to specify parfname with genscan for Ab initio prediction

Question

[chrisclarkson100]

Trying to Ab initio annotate a sequence with "Genscan", having the following problems:

None of the manuals on genscan detail how to specify the "parfname". I know that I'm supposed to specify the file pathway but when I try the following code (specifying the directory/subdirectory/filename and then the name of the file in accordance with the "seqname"):

genscan /home/practical/fungalgenome fungalgenome
reading sequence file fungalgenome...  12532 bp
Error : matrix file /home/practical/fungalgenome could not be opened

It returns the following error. If it's something wrong with the file it's just a ".tfa" file that I stored in the "practical directory.

Any tips?
