Problems indexing Silva Database

Issue #75 new
Former user created an issue

Good morning,

We are trying to run KMA using SILVA database but, after indexing our fasta file, we get all the files and the *.comp.b has a size of 0Kb, what makes kma to show this error: Reading error. # Collecting k-mer scores.

We've used the common indexing instruction, just with -i and -o modifyers.

Originally, Silva has this header format for each sequence:

KF848653.1.566 Eukaryota; Amorphea; Obazoa; Opisthokonta; Nucletmycea; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Pezizomycotina; Sordariomycetes; Hypocreales; Nectriaceae; Fusarium; Cytosporaceratosperma

And, trying to adapt it to KMA and CCmetagen, we've changed it for:

KF848653.1.566|Eukaryota;Amorphea;Obazoa;Opisthokonta;Nucletmycea;Fungi;Dikarya;Ascomycota;Pezizomycotina;Sordariomycetes;Hypocreales;Nectriaceae;Fusarium;Cytospora ceratosperma

We don't know how to adapt our silva file to kma format to be propperly indexed. could you please help us?

Thanks in advance. Regards
