Cygwin - cannot execute binary file
Hey all, I am using Cygwin on a machine running windows 7 64bits. I am about to use the following command: Code:
$ faToTwoBit in.fa out.2bit In the manual on sourceforge it mentioned: "Download blat and faToTwoBit and set the blat_bin and fatotwobit_bin entries in config.txt to the fully qualified paths of the blat and faToTwoBit binaries." SourceForge.net: Comrad 0.1.0 - fusioncomrad I downloaded blat and faToTwoBit and put them in /Usr/bin But when I try to run the command I see this error: Code:
-bash: /usr/bin/faToTwoBit: cannot execute binary file BTW, I checked the file that I downloaded and it is an ELF 64-bit LSB executable. Code:
$ file /usr/bin/faToTwoBit /usr/bin/faToTwoBit: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, stripped Anyone can help me?! :| Tnx |

Thanks jlliagre. What you're saying makes me worried! :\ And well.. it seems it's true! It's bin a while that I am using cygwin to run the unix commands and it worked perfectly so far! So, do you have any suggestion for this problem?
Tnx |

As already suggested, recompile from source. In that specific case, that would be Comrad - Browse /0.1 at SourceForge.net

You need faToTwoBit compiled in Windows exe (PE) format but against cygwin1.dll not the native windows dll. You can't run native ELF binaries on Cygwin.
As fas as I know, the faToTwoBit application hasn't been ported yet to cygwin. You can take a look here: samtools installation - SEQanswers SAMtools installation - SEQanswers Seems to be problematic to compile under cygwin. |
