Error running simulation using custom genomes

[CassandraHjo]

I am attempting to execute CAMISIM using custom genomes, but I get this error message:

This is my config file:

This is my genome_to_id.tsv:

This is my metadata.tsv:

My primary interest lies in the sequenced reads generated by CAMISIM, rather than the gold standard or assembly outputs.

I attempted to replace the genome specified in line 3 of the genome_to_id file with an alternate genome, but this gives the same error as above. My input genomes are MAGs in .fasta format. Although the MAGs do not represent complete genomes, the sequences within the .fasta files are contiguous. (I have checked that the simulation runs with the default files).

The issue with the 'genome_to_id.tsv' file originated from an incorrect formatting where tabs were inadvertently replaced with spaces. Upon rectifying this by reinstating tabs as the delimiter the simulation executed flawlessly without any errors.
