My apologies, it works now. I just hadn't the latest version of tabix installed. followed again the instruction, everything works.
I just have one additional question: when roll over the variant with the mouse, in your multisample VCF file (visibility=pack) I can see a yellow box popping up with name and additional features. in mine, which is single sample, I can only see the allele numbers. is there any way to configure what information should appear when rolling over the variant with the mouse? thanks, Francesco Begin forwarded message: From: "Lescai, Francesco" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: VCF custom tracks empty Date: 19 June 2012 12:40:20 GMT+01:00 To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Hi there, I tried to follow precisely the instructions in http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/vcf.html but my tracks are always empty. I thought it might be the missing "chr" but then I saw your example file is on ENSEMBL format, i.e. without "chr" http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/examples/vcfExample.vcf.gz I was trying to pass single sample VCFs while the example is multi-sample, so I tried a multi-sample one but the browser was empty again. My file are bgzipped and indexed with tabix, I don't receive any error message. I checked with a zcat the file to contain data. They have been generated with GATK, and the file format is v4.1 which I understand should be supported. the track line I'm using is track type=vcfTabix name=PE1Variants db=hg19 visibility=pack maxWindowToDraw=200000 bigDataUrl=https://myurl/P E1/PE1.noref.vcf.ucsc.vcf.gz I'm attaching here one of these files. Any clue of what I must be missing? thanks for your help, Francesco --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Francesco Lescai, PhD, EDBT Senior Research Associate in Genome Analysis University College London Faculty of Population Health Sciences Dept.
