• Describe the issue or question:

I am using DIA_DIA-Umpire_SpecLib_Quant process to analyze the data, and I have only DIA and no DDA type in my data, and the following error message is reported

Found 0 test set PSMs with q<0.01.
No targets found with q<0.01

Split 1:	Selected feature 7 as initial direction. Could separate 95 training set positives with q<0.01 in that direction.
Split 2:	Selected feature 4 as initial direction. Could separate 65 training set positives with q<0.01 in that direction.
Split 3:	Selected feature 6 as initial direction. Could separate 74 training set positives with q<0.01 in that direction.

Not sure if this helps, but I also encountered an error when using peptideprophet

Regarding the PeptideProphet error, the FragPipe executable files have been corrupted. Please download a new one and start from scratch.

I am also having the same issues running the DIA_DIA-Umpire_SpecLib_Quant workflow. (I have also tried this without the workflow loaded but individually selected the tabs with the same parameters). This is a recent issue, where the same samples (small subset) I have successfully ran previously are suddenly terminating at the percolator step:

No targets found with q<0.01

Any help with this would be very appreciated, although I note that the crosslinked post to percolator has not gotten any replies since this issue was first raised. Could the program have somehow become

@BaylorSci , thanks for the feedback. We are still waiting for the Percolator to reply the ticket percolator/percolator#375. They normally replies promptly. Maybe they are busy. I guess we'd better wait a little longer.

Any update on this issue? Newest run example with fail outlined above:

Seems to be caused by something missing in the pepXML file (not sure what). I systematically removed samples until I got it to complete (removing samples below a certain size threshold, for me below 600 kb)
