Subprocess fails to catch the standard output
- by user343934
I am trying to generate tree with fasta file input and Alignment with MuscleCommandline
import sys,os, subprocess
from Bio import AlignIO
from Bio.Align.Applications import MuscleCommandline
cline = MuscleCommandline(input="c:\Python26\opuntia.fasta")
child= subprocess.Popen(str(cline),
stdout = subprocess.PIPE,
stderr=subprocess.PIPE,
shell=(sys.platform!="win32"))
align=AlignIO.read(child.stdout,"fasta")
outfile=open('c:\Python26\opuntia.phy','w')
AlignIO.write([align],outfile,'phylip')
outfile.close()
I always encounter with these problems
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 244, in run_nodebug
