Hi everyone,

I am running yn00 to analyze around 35000 alignments. My codon alignments were generated by pal2nal in PAML input format. When I run the yn00, dn,ds is calculated only for around 300 alignments but not for the rest ~34000 alignments. I tried running these alignments one by one and I get the same error for all of them.

Error in sequence data file: E at 3 seq 1. Make sure to separate the sequence from its name by 2 or more spaces

I have checked my alignments and they seem to be fine, as in , in multiples of three. It's very confusing as ~200 of them seem to not have this problem although they were all generated by pal2nal. I am attaching a few alignments that did not run. Please help me figure this out. Thank you.

I believe that your sequence name exceeds the max. of 30 characters.

Please show also the headers of the alignments which "are fine" to see if the problem is header length.

I had this error when my input phylip file had between sequence name and sequence tab instead of two spaces. Replacing the tab by two spaces (e.g. in bash via sed 's/\t/ /') fixed the problem - that might be another thing to check.
