address@hidden:/home/cj35$ wc -l snpdb/illumina_cj35.fg_40101.map
620902 snpdb/illumina_cj35.fg_40101.map
address@hidden:/home/cj35$ wc -l /home/cj35/snpdb/illumina_cj35.fg_40101.map
wc:  /home/cj35/snpdb/illumina_cj35.fg_40101.map: No such file or directory

It's unlikely this has anything to do with wc, as it simply operates on the supplied filenames. To narrow down the cause of the problem I'd suggest examining the directory name itself (use "/bin/pwd") and then try to identify which path component is non-existent (use "ls -ld").


Cheers,
Phil
