Hey Christina, it seems that error indicates insufficient memory. Could you try increasing the memory of the NOTEBOOK process? You can do that by saving the following code to a notebook.config
file and then providing this file to the pipeline when calling it like so:
nextflow run nf-core/differentialabundance -r 1.4.0 -profile test,docker --outdir output -resume -c path/to/notebook.config
This is the file content:
process {
withName: RMARKDOWNNOTEBOOK {
memory = { 16.GB * task.attempt}
}
}
I suppose this is limited by the memory that is available on your computer which I think is around 17GB? If this trick does not work, I'm not sure if the dataset you are trying to analyze might not simply be too big to be run on your mac...
@WackerO is correct- memory will be the issue here, though pandoc is unhelpfully cryptic. See similar issues like this one.
Closing the issue for now, feel free to reopen if increasing resources doesn't help.
Hello! I am having the same error as above but with a slight difference: Fontconfig error: No writable cache directories
I still end up with the same "Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 9"
I'm running on an Amazon EC2 instance (m4.4xlarge, 16 vCPU 64 GiB memory) so memory doesn't seem to be the issue.
(Above discussed on Slack, it was still a memory error)
Description of the bug
When running the differential abundance pipeline test run, the pipeline fails on the RMARKDOWNNOTEBOOK process citing a pandoc conversion failure.
Has anyone encountered this error before? It should be noted that I'm running the pipeline on the ARM apple silicon architecture which is known to have some compatibility problems with docker.
