Hi,

I tried to use DEPICT in two computers with the same error as below

Writing DEPICT loci
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "src/python/depict.py", line 114, in

raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

I used chmod to change the permission for depict.py, depict_library.py, subprocess.py, Plink and java, and also tried to use sudo to execute. But none of these work. I wonder where the problem might be?

Thank you very much!

Problem solved.

The "plink_executable: " should put the executable file. I put the directory.
