I am trying to do a second round of maker genome annotation with ab initio prediction by snap.

The error I am getting is as follows:

error: unknown command "genome.hmm", see 'snap help'. ERROR: Snap failed --> rank=NA, hostname=bioinformatics ERROR: Failed while preparing ab-inits ERROR: Chunk failed at level:0, tier_type:2 FAILED CONTIG:tig00000009

For every single contig.

Running snap standalone with the same hmm file works fine, with this command:

snap genome.hmm genome.fa

I made the hmm file with the following commands: ../maker2zff -d genome_index.log

fathom genome.ann genome.dna -gene-stats > gene-stats.log 2>&1

fathom genome.ann genome.dna -validate > validate.log 2>&1

fathom genome.ann genome.dna -categorize 1000 > categorize.log 2>&1

fathom uni.ann uni.dna -export 1000 -plus > uni-plus.log 2>&1

mkdir params/

cd params/

forge ../export.ann ../export.dna > ../forge.log 2>&1

cd ..

../snap/SNAP/hmm-assembler.pl genome params > genome.hmm

This is what the top of the hmm file looks like:

-----Other Annotation Feature Types (features MAKER doesn't recognize)

I'm honestly losing my mind I've been struggling with this error for two days.

What does your maker_exe.ctl look like? It could be that the path to SNAP isn't set correctly

This is the location of the snap executable

I think this is your problem in maker_exe.ctl - try setting this to the absolute path of snap, something like /usr/bin/snap, not snap/SNAP/snap. It could be that the error you're seeing in SNAP is not due to your hmm file being wrong, but due to MAKER failing to start SNAP in the first place.

Amazingly when I tried this last night it did not work, yet as I desperately tried again this morning it appears to be running smoothly. Thank you!
