Re: [phenixbb] Autobuild error - bash/dash/sh

Hi Stephen, Thanks very much again for pointing out this problem! I have changed this so that all versions of phenix starting now should run on your machine with '2>&1' instead of '>&' for redirecting stderr to the output file. Let me know if this doesn't do it!

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the info. I think the command is the '>&' redirect of stdout and stderr on line 5 of the generated script. If my sh memory is correct, the same should be achievable with:

phenix.autobuild /path/to/TEMP0/PARAMS_1.eff write_run_directory_to_file=/path/to/TEMP0/INFO_FILE_1 > /path/to/TEMP0/RUN_FILE_1.log 2>&1

i.e. redirect stdout to the RUN_FILE_1.log, and then redirect stderr to the same place using '2>&1'

I've done a quick test and this seems to give the expected behaviour.

Cheers,

Stephen

Hi Stephen, I'm sorry about the problem! I put in the "sh" with a bash system as you guessed, and I must have used a non-generic command. I will have to check this out on an ubuntu system.

No, unfortunately there is no easy way to get rid of the sh completely (this is all there because I was trying to get rid of csh which is not in ubuntu at all). You can however go back to the last release version of phenix (which used csh), then download csh and you should be in business.

On the sequence file, both fasta and pir should work...but try just a plain sequence of letters, no headers, and that might solve the gui part of this.

All the best, Tom T

Hi there,

Apologies if this has been reported before, but the autobuild job I tried to run last night failed after a short while...

The job was started from the command line using:

phenix.autobuild data=../mydata_free.mtz seq_file=../protein.fasta map_file=../ccp4i/protein_phaser.1_parrot2.mtz input_map_labels='parrot.F_phi.F parrot.F_phi.phi None'

And it got to the point where it was trying to submit the three jobs before it died as follows:

Splitting work into 3 jobs and running with 1 processors using sh background=False in /home/stepheng/Projects/my_protein/autobuild/AutoBuild_run_3_/TEMP0

Starting job 1...Log will be: /home/stepheng/Projects/my_protein/autobuild/AutoBuild_run_3_/TEMP0/RUN_FILE_1.log *************ERROR ENDING *******************

******************************************************************************** Failed to carry out AutoBuild_build_cycle:

*************ERROR ENDING *******************

I think the problem might be that the RUN_FILE_1.sh script seems to use a bash command/redirection that is not implemented in plain old 'sh' spec, and thus not supported by dash (the lean version of sh that ships with ubuntu)? If I change the #! line of RUN_FILE_1.sh to call /bin/bash rather than /bin/sh the script seems to run to completion...

Is there any easy way to change the script template to use /bin/bash or remove the offending command? I'm running phenix dev-550 on an x86 ubuntu 10.10 machine.

Thanks,

Stephen

P.S. The reason I'm trying to run autobuild from the command line rather from the GUI is that the GUI seems to crash every time I give autobuild a sequence file in either the FASTA or PIR format. Is there another format I should be using?
