Hi everyone!

I have used rasflow in the past to process and analyze RNA-sequencing data in human and mouse cells, but now I am trying to do the same with a viral genome and seem to be running into issues with the annotation file.

the genome and annotation I'm using is available here, and the gff looks as below

##gff-version 3
#!gff-spec-version 1.21
#!processor NCBI annotwriter
#!genome-build ASM629838v1

When I run rasflow, I get the following error

I've tried using gff read to convert it to a gtf, and get the same error. This is what the converted file looks like

I've figured out how to fix this, and I want to put the solution down here for future readers who may have a similar issue.

I've gone into the align_count_genomes.rules file in workflow, and changed "exon" to CDS in the featurecounts area, so it now reads

rule featureCount:
    input:
        sort = intermediate_path + "/bamFileSort/{sample}.sort.bam",
        annotation = config["ANNOTATION"]
    output:
        count = final_path + "/countFile/{sample}_count.tsv",
        count_summary = final_path + "/countFile/{sample}_count.tsv.summary"
    run:
        if config["COUNTER"]=="featureCounts":
            if config["END"]=="pair":
                shell("featureCounts -p -T {config[NCORE]} -t CDS -g {config[ATTRIBUTE]} -a {input.annotation} -o {output.count} {input.sort} && tail -n +3 {output.count} | cut -f1,7 > temp.{wildcards.sample} && mv temp.{wildcards.sample} {output.count}")
            else:
                shell("featureCounts  -T {config[NCORE]} -t CDS -g {config[ATTRIBUTE]} -a {input.annotation} -o {output.count} {input.sort} && tail -n +3 {output.count} | cut -f1,7 > temp.{wildcards.sample} && mv temp.{wildcards.sample} {output.count}")
        elif config["COUNTER"]=="htseq-count":
            shell("htseq-count -f bam -i {config[ATTRIBUTE]} -s no -t CDS {input.sort} {input.annotation} | sed '/^__/ d' > {output.count}")

Based on the mouse gtf file ive used in the past, I am guessing the original was giving an error because the third column of the mouse gtf has "exon" while this one has only CDS or transcript. I think changing the code in the rules file fixed this. I was also able to just use the original gff file
