A file ending in .txt may not be a HMM file, so that would cause a problem. Assuming that it is a HMM file, there are possible solutions here and here.

I suggest that you search Biostars before posting your questions. Very few problems are truly unique, and most questions have been answered - some of them literally hundreds of times.

It is true. Thanks a lot, Mensur. Now it is working well

All the best Alex
