TypeError: object.__new__(BlockManager) is not safe, use BlockManager.__new__()

[jdwinkler-lanzatech]

Hi,

I'm suddenly getting a type error when analyzing an assembly:

Traceback (most recent call last):
	File "/usr/local/bin/phigaro", line 5, in <module>
	from phigaro.cli.batch import main
	File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/phigaro/cli/batch.py", line 20, in <module>

	File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/subprocess.py", line 363, in check_call
	raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd)

I'm not sure exactly what stage the program is failing at, but it looks like the HTML output preprocessing stage. I am actually specifying gff and tsv outputs only though using the following command:

phigaro -c config.yml -f assembly.fasta -e gff tsv --delete-shorts -o /tmp/tmpwbar6v85 -t 2

If you have any suggestions on a workaround or fix, please let me know. I am running phigaro 2.3.0 in a docker container based upon python 3.7 with all the prereqs installed.

[PollyTikhonova]

I am so sorry, I've lost your message before, and bumped into it just now. If you are still interested, please, send me the files assembly.fasta and /tmp/tmpwbar6v85 to my email tikhonova.polly@mail.ru and I'll figure out the problem.

[jdwinkler-lanzatech]

No worries! Let me see if I can reproduce a minimal example and send you more details early next week.

Thank you! will waait

When I execute the following command：
phigaro - F test_ data/Bacillus_ anthracis_ str_ ames.fna -o test_ data/Bacillus_ anthracis_ str_ The Ames - P -- not open

I encountered a mistake：
Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: object.new(BlockManager) is not safe, use BlockManager.new()

How can I solve this problem？

[PollyTikhonova]

Hello,
Please try to update pickle and/or copyreg lib
If it still doesn't work, please send the result of pip freeze command

Hello,
I have almost the same error message after installing and configuring phigaro.
The phigaro-setup command gives me the help menu while thephigaro -h command gives me this error message :

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: object.new(BlockManager) is not safe, use BlockManager.new()

Do you have a suggestion to help me solve this problem?
Thank you for your understanding

[WuJiaWei121]

Hello,
I installed phigaro with pip and then this error occurred.
After uninstalling phigaro, I used conda to install it to solve this problem.
the command is：
conda install -c bioconda phigaro

[ATCHON]

Thanks for your help.
It is OK for me after installing with: conda install -c bioconda phigaro

[jdwinkler-lanzatech]

The conda distribution also works for me.

I have the same issue when installing with pip. I think it's related to recent versions of pandas (I have no issue when I use pandas 1.2.0).

If I'm correct, phigaro unpickles 2 files:

• the family related to some pVOGs (file pvogs_taxonomy.pickle)
• the description of some pVOGS (file to_html/pvogs_annotations.pickle)

I think that using pickle to load those data is not a goad idea: it's simple tabular data so could be put in two CSV files (which are easier to work with) or even merged into one. Also I was wondering if those files should be put alongside the HMM models and downloaded upon installation.

Hi!, in my case still getting the same error.
I tried conda installation but I have no luck:

conda install -c bioconda phigaro

I tried pip and repo installation but still getting the same error about BlockManager, what can I do?

[PollyTikhonova]

Hi @Sanrrone, would you please try and create a new fresh environment with python 3.7 and try install phigaro to this environment?
I would also appretiate if you could send me specification of your current conda environment, so that I could troubleshoot the issue.
But clean environment with older python version should help for now

[Sanrrone]

Hi!, a new conda enviroment using python3.7 as you suggest worked at the end. Is a longer workaround for my scripts since my other software uses newer python versions but, finally I can continue!
thanks you very much

[oliverdrechsel]

Hi @PollyTikhonova ,

unfortunately, i do get the same error message. Phigaro doesn't even start after a fresh install to show help.

$ mamba env create -f environment.yml -p ../phigaro_env
$ phigaro-setup

$ phigaro
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/scratch.../phigaro_env/bin/phigaro", line 5, in <module>

    from phigaro.batch.task.run_phigaro import RunPhigaroTask
  File "/scratch.../phigaro_env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/phigaro/batch/task/run_phigaro.py", line 21, in <module>

    annotations = pickle.load(f)

    obj = object.__new__(cls)
TypeError: object.__new__(BlockManager) is not safe, use BlockManager.__new__()

The same error message keeps popping up even if I setup a fresh python3.7.12 conda environment and install phigaro with pip.

Do you have any idea what i could be doing wrong?

thanks a lot

[PollyTikhonova]

Thanks everyone for contributing to this topic!
In phigaro 2.4.0 we finally got rid of the .pickle files and fixed other compatibility issues. So, now the installation installation of v2.4.0 should not encounter into BlockManager error and hopefully neither into any others.
