mirDeep-P file needed for plant miRNA prediction

Question

[polag01]

Please does anyone have a working and complete copy of mirDeep-P. The link on sourceforge is not getting any file

Although I found one here Here, but it is corrupt and not successfully extracting. Thanks for your help

Although extracting from the downloaded file does indeed results in an error message, it seems the scripts are there?

tar -xzf miRDP1.3.tar.gz

gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error
gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--length error
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
  

ls -ls miRDP1.3/

Yes, I am able to get the three scripts and the same error message but the number of scripts in mirDeep-P should be around nine (9) So, all the scripts are not extracted

I finally found a way out.

This might be useful to someone too

Instead of extracting on Linux, I found a way to extract using WinRAR on Windows. Two levels of nested extraction have to be done to recover all the files (10 files actually).

Thanks
