sqlite3.DataError: string or blob too big

[arslan9732]

I am trying to run fine_tuning for a new plant. But during the conversion of the gff3 output by HelixerPost to Helixer's training data format I got this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/mnt/data/arslan/tool/miniconda3/lib/python3.11/site-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 1910, in _execute_context

    cursor.execute(statement, parameters)
sqlite3.DataError: string or blob too big

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Here is the command that I used:

python GeenuFF/import2geenuff.py --fasta genome.fa --gff3 genome.hlx.gff \
  --db-path Vfaba.sqlite3 --log-file my_genome_import.log \
  --species my_genome

Ah, do you have a single chromosome that is longer than $2^{31}-1$ i.e. 2147483647?

If so, this number is unfortunately a limitation of our current implementation.

@arslan9732 As a work around and only for the sake of fine tuning, you could split or truncate any chromosomes longer than the above numbers, but run the final inference (once you have the tuned model) on the original full-length sequences.
