Error matching m/z values in older documents liisa arike  2018-11-30 07:06
 
Hi!

I am getting a following error when opening older processed Skyline files:
---------------------------

The file contains an error on line 1897 at column 7.

Title: Errror
Can you send us the file "Crosslinking_human chymotrp_MS562_01_25.sky"?
The file that you attached is the .sky.view file, which is not the file that we need to fix. You should send us the .sky file.

I believe that many errors like this are caused by bugs that we had in older versions of Skyline in terms of calculating the mass of molecules or fragments. When those bugs were fixed in the current version of Skyline it sometimes resulted in errors like this when you tried to open older documents.
That error also might indicate a bug in the current version of Skyline.
If you send us that .sky file, we will be able to either fix the .sky file or figure out whether there is a current bug in Skyline.

I'm sorry, I thought I sent everything. Thank you very much for responding so fast.

Best,
Liisa

No problem, Lisa. Our file naming can be confusing on systems that don't show file extensions. On such a system our names come out looking like:

filename
filename.sky
filename

When the full extension view would be:

filename.sky
filename.sky.view
filename.skyd

Because we usually work on systems where we show extensions (one of the first things I change in a default Windows installation), I think we often forget this. Maybe we should be thinking about ways of improving this.

Thanks for reporting your issue.

Hi, Liisa,

When the current version of Skyline tries to open a document that was created in version 3.7, Skyline tries to guess whether the transition m/z values refer to the ion mass with or without protons. We have a bug in this code, and the logic does not work correctly for transitions whose charge is not 1.

We will try to fix this soon.
I have attached a modified version of the .sky file that you gave me, which should fix this problem.

If you have other Skyline documents that you need fixed, you can fix them by opening them in a text editor (such as Notepad) and doing a search and replace.
You need to replace every occurrence of:
product_charge="2"
with
product_charge="2" ion_formula="[M+2]"

I hope this works for you, and let us know if you have any more troubles with your Skyline documents.

Thanks a lot, this solved the problem.
