[Eric Pettersen]

There is a second problem in the log which is why I cc'ed Greg:

Failed to subscribed paul.gouguet@… to the ChimeraX announcements list:
HTTP Error 404: Not Found

[Tom Goddard]

The command to run an alphafold prediction

alphafold predict B

is not what you want. I think you meant to predict for chain B which would be

alphafold predict /B

Without the slash it tried to interpret the "B" as a sequence. But B is not a 1-letter code for an amino acid, so it gets a zero length sequence. I'm amazed the code does not catch this and give an error, but in my test it tries to run AlphaFold on a zero length sequence.

I don't get the error you got when I try this. But the error you got means the predicted model has no chains, in other words is empty.

I'll put in an error check that does not try to predict 0 length sequences.

Reassigning to Greg to look into the Registration error
