Error in making result file

[Rhia15]

Hi,

I have been trying to use find_enrichment.py to perform an enrichment analysis. I originally tried it with my study but it did not work so I tried it with the data provided on the github page as well as the command line example but seem to receive the same error message. It doesnt produce a results file either. Is there something else which i need to do before?

(enrichment) [mbxrs14@login001(Augusta) enrichment]$ find_enrichment.py small_study.txt small_population.txt small_association.txt --pval=0.05 --method=fdr_bh --pval_field=fdr_bh --outfile=results_id2gos.xlsx

Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you!

@Rhia15

Can you check to see if most of the genes in your study (38 genes) is a subset of the population (2000 genes)?
The population can be the entire protein set in the genome of interest.

Hi, thank you for the reply! the input in the example is the txt files I downloaded from this github page in test/data to check if there was anything wrong with the environment or any dependencies. I think it is a subset of the population. It looks like I get the the same warnings about DAG with any data I try though. Could there be something wrong with the DAG? but I have checked the permissions for go-basic.obo and if the IDs are present and everything seems okay, so I am not sure what to do :/

@Rhia15

I just tested with the test files in this repo, it seems to run fine. Have you checked if you have the latest version?
