can not find Ne2-1.exe

[ezcn]

Hi,

I am trying to use calc_ne and i get this error message:

Error in calc_ne(dat, NeEstimator_path = "/usr/bin/Ne2-1.exe") :
NeEstimator executable not found at provided path.

I searched for Ne2-1.exe in your repo to be able to specify a path but I could not find it
Can you help on that ?
thanks!

Hey @ezcn!

This argument is looking for a path to the executable for NeEstimator on your computer. NeEstimator is an external program that is called by snpR to calculate Ne. You'll need to download this, then provide the path to the executable to the NeEstimator_path argument.

Note that this issue also has some calc_ne recommendations, and that the path to your NeEstimator file probably needs to be a standard one (e.g. no spaces, etc--I believe a recent change should mostly work around this but I'm not positive that it'll work in all cases).

Let me know if you have any issues or need additional help!
