Hello Peter, There could be several things causing this.
1. incomplete or corrupted iProphet pepXML. Can you check the file sizes and the closing tags to make sure that you files are complete? 2. system limitation on the length of the command. You can use InteractParser with -W flag to combine your iProphet pepXMLs into one huge pepXML file. 3. unknown bug Can you check each of your iProphet pepXMLs to make sure that they are complete first and check for any upstream error messages from your iProphet runs? Also iProphet works well when combining PeptideProphet results, can you perhaps combine your PeptideProphet runs into a smaller number of iProphet pepXMLs by grouping more of your PeptideProphet pepXMLs together in iProphet before you run ProteinProphet?
