Issue Tracker

Despite our efforts at enforcing good practices in our work, like every software, DeNovoGUI might crash, fail to cover specific use cases, not perform as well as expected. We apologize for any inconvenience and will try to fix things to the best of our capabilities. We welcome bug reports, suggestions of improvements, and contributions via our issue tracker.

Troubleshooting

Note that PepNovo+ is not supported on Linux 32 bit, pNovo+ is only supported on Windows, and that DirectTag is currently not supported on Mac (support is in development).

If you get problems running PepNovo+ on Linux (or OSX), please try the following: (1) install dos2unix, (2) run the following two commands inside the resources/PepNovo folder: dos2unix Models/*.* and dos2unix Models/*/*.*.

For problems related to Java, memory or startup issues, please see: Java Troubleshooting.
