format error in the input file, --fastBAT gene-set GWAS,

[wangxu1990]

For the --fastBAT, it is written in the official webpage "The input file test.ma has columns including SNP ID, the effect allele, the other allele, frequency of the effect allele, effect size, standard error, p-value and sample size“, but I only have two columns, one SNP, one P value. Does it come from the missing the other columns? but I did find that someone work well with the only two columns?

Thank you!

I am also getting the same error when using the following format:

SNP A1 A2 freq BETA SE P N
rs144155419 A G 0.0105148 0.0184197527119345 0.0532524074964082 0.73 384695

I have also tried using whitespace rather than tab delimited, but I receive the same issue.
Additionally, removing the header row gives the same error message.

I am having the same issue. Did you find a solution? Thanks!!

I just tried using a newer version of GCTA and it is reading the --fastBAT input file. The error was generated when using version 1.93, and it is working fine on version 1.94.
