Hello Jerzy,

The MACS wrapper in Galaxy currently supports version 1.3, which explains the problems with 1.4. Tool dependencies are noted on this wiki:
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Tools/Tool%20Dependencies

For the other errors, are you trying to run MACS on the command line or within Galaxy? For command line, some environment variables need to be set up, the MACS documentation has the details:

Hopefully this helps,

Jen

Hello,

I cannot run MACS on the local Galaxy. When I install MACS version 1.4.,
it gives error something like "cannot find macs". When I install version
1.3.7.1 it gives error "/line 34, in <module> from MACS.OptValidator
import opt_validate ImportError: No module named MACS.OptValidator"/
I sourced PATH to the directory with this module. Any ideas?

best regards,

Jerzy
