[E::idx_find_and_load] Could not retrieve index file for '.1712579023.8525763.bam'

[ptranvan]

Hi,

Hi have this issue:

[E::idx_find_and_load] Could not retrieve index file for '.1712579023.8525763.bam' My command line is :

singularity exec tetranscripts.sif TEtranscripts -t 1.bam 2.bam -c 3.bam 4.bam --GTF Homo_sapiens-GCA_009914755.4-2022_07-genes.gtf --TE T2T-CHM13v2_rmsk_TE.nochr.centromere.gtf --stranded reverse --sortByPos --mode multi

And I set 100GB of memory.

any solutions ?

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in the software. Do you have TEtranscripts_out.cntTable and/or TEtranscripts_out_sigdiff_gene_TE.txt as your output? If so, the run should have completed successfully. If what you posted is the only warning message, then there is no impact on your run (See also #82). This is an known issue with htslib throwing this warning despite not requiring the index. We hope to suppress this warning in future TEtranscripts releases.

Thanks.

Thanks for your prompt answer. Now I have an other issue do you know how to fix it ?

Hi,

Based on the message, it looks like you ran out of disk space:

samtools sort: failed writing to ".1712671194.444845.bam": No space left on device

Because you're using the --sortByPos flag, TEtranscripts need to re-sort the file based on read name, and thus would need disk space for it.

Thanks

That's strange because I have plenty of space.

I have ve set the --outdir parameter and for singularity the -W in the singularity exec command. Is there any default directory when I run the command I am not aware of ?

[olivertam]

Hi,

I'm afraid I have limited experience with Singularity. Are you running the singularity module in a different disk mount to your -W location (e.g. you're running Singularity on $HOME, but your data mount is elsewhere? I'm also assuming you're using -W (workdir) and not -w (writable) by accident. You can try this and see if the container is full (for some reason):

singularity exec -W [your workdir] tetranscripts.sif df

If so, maybe re-pull the container (though I don't know why it would fill up unless it was made writable) Sorry if this does not help.

Thanks

I have solved the issue.

I re-sorted my .bam manually using samtools sort -n

and used TEtranscripts without --sortByPos
