Hi All,
I am trying to compile STAR on my PC lab top. I am using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I have the STAR source code on the computer. Trying to run
landrjos@DESKTOP-GDG318A:/mnt/c/Program Files/Bioinformatics/STAR-2.7.7a/source$ make STAR
and I get the following error....
make -C htslib lib-static make[1]: Entering directory '/mnt/c/Program Files/Bioinformatics/STAR-2.7.7a/source/htslib' cc -g -Wall -O2 -I. -DSAMTOOLS=1 -c -o kfunc.o kfunc.c make[1]: cc: Command not found make[1]: * [Makefile:99: kfunc.o] Error 127 make[1]: Leaving directory '/mnt/c/Program Files/Bioinformatics/STAR-2.7.7a/source/htslib' Makefile:111: Depend.list: No such file or directory make: * [Makefile:121: htslib/libhts.a] Error 2
Any suggestions???
I tried the following...
sudo apt install gcc sudo apt install build-essential sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libz-dev
still get the same error....
Why not use the binary ?
You can also try installing via conda to resolve dependencies:
conda install -c bioconda star
