Could not retrieve index file #40

Closed Nuwah12 closed 1 year ago

Nuwah12 commented 2 years ago

Hi all,

I have 11 bam files in total that are all being made into snap files with snaptools snap-pre. I followed the specifications for formatting the bam files (which are originally from CellRanger, but went through some processing), but am getting this error thrown: `[E::idx_find_and_load] Could not retrieve index file for 'snapatac_input.bam''

This is the exact command that I am running: snaptools snap-pre --input-file=snapatac_input.bam --output-snap=snapatac_output.snap --genome-name=hg38 --genome-size=hg38.chrom.sizes

Has anyone else faced a similar issue? Obviously, I am unable to index the bam files via samtools index because the bam files are sorted by read name and not position - that is why this issue has been stumping me so bad.

Any help is appreciated!
