error when training classifier

Dear QIIME2 User Support team:

I downloaded the greengene database gg_13_8_otus.tar.gz and got error message when running the following step saying

"Plugin error from feature-classifier:

No matches found"

qiime feature-classifier extract-reads \

--i-sequences 99_otus.qza
--p-f-primer GTGCCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA
--p-r-primer GGACTACHVGGGTWTCTAAT
--p-trunc-len 170
--p-min-length 100
--p-max-length 400
--o-reads ref-seqs.qza

Could you please help me to find out how to solve this error message?

Thanks,

Jia

Hi @Jia,
The error seems to indicate there were no matches based on those primers on the ref database you provided. Which greengenes file (99_otus.qza) exactly are you using? By chance you used the aligned rep_set one by mistake?

Hi Mehrbod,

You are right. I used the 99_otus.qza generated from the fasta file from the aligned rep_set folder by mistake. I tried the other rep_set folder and it’s working now.

Thanks,

Jia
