HI all, I know that there have been previous posts about this error but here is my encounter with it. Is there something specific between HTSEq-Count output to EdgeR?

When I use HTSEQ-output for EdgeR I get following error "Fatal error: Exit code 1 () Error in row.names<-.data.frame(tmp, value = c("X0", "X4", "X4", : duplicate 'row.names' are not allowed Calls: row.names<- -> row.names<-.data.frame Warning message: non-unique values when setting 'row.names': ‘X0’," however, when i use the same HTSEQ-out for DSEQ2 i do not get any errors in addition, if I use featurecount output for EdgeR or DSEQ2, i do not get any errors either. I also tried not using annotation file for EdgeR, i still get that duplicate row name error.

help me out please!

Hello,

The problem is a missing header line. You can add this in yourself, or use FeatureCounts instead of HTseq-count.

Thanks! Jen, Galaxy team

Thanks Jen. Any idea why HTSEq2-count output (despite having no header) is compatible with DSEq2 but not EdgeR? Can anything be done with EdgeR wrapper in Galaxy? just asking. I am dealing with dataset collection with a lot of replicates, hence downloading all HTSEq2-count files and adding a header reuploading them! Is there any other way of doing this?

Best wishes.

For your case, I would suggest running the collection through Featurecounts instead of HTseq-count. This is the intended count data to be input to the tool (both are from the same tool authors). For more details, review the help on the EdgeR tool form (scroll down to find it).

Deseq2 has an option to specify whether the data has a header or not. I'm not exactly sure why EdgeR does not have this option but will ask the developers if it would be possible to include it.
