I found great the RNAspace tool, so great that we decided to use in our workflow.
But when I try to install it I got several problems, starting from the point of how to locate the multiple dependencies it has, and how to configure it.
The help page is not really helpful to run it locally and the installation file in the source code helped but not to the point of running the application.
Has anyone installed it in their servers to run it locally?
After 22 days I give up. It is focus to the web, and not to the command line run. But I found the following problems to install locally:
Lack of a clear manual to follow to install.
Incoherences between the information provided. There are three files for user, the "rnaspace_cli_user_guide", the "install_documentation" and the "development_documentation".
Incoherences between the code provided and the manuals.
Lacks of a consistent test to check if it is well installed. It didn't provide the fasta sample with which the test was performed and new versions are now available.
Few information to solve the errors of the software and of the output.
Multiple dependencies which make it difficult to find where is originally the error raised. (not the classic Trackback)
For this reasons, we will use the programs alone and integrate them ourselves.
Thank you for sharing this information and your thoughts. Hopefully the authors of the package will see this post and do something to improve the installation process.
