The order of unmapped paired-end reads are not consistent #1933

Using the version STAR 2.5.2a to align paired-end reads to the human reference genome. Find out the order of the unmapped mates is not consistent, but the number of two unmapped files is consistent. I have no idea why some of my fastq files got the error. (Re-run the same command might go well).

Please switch to a recent version of STAR: https://github.com/alexdobin/STAR/releases/tag/2.7.11a If it still gives an error, please send me the Log.out file.
