There was one similar error here https://github.com/samtools/bcftools/issues/1353, but that was with an older version of htslib and that bug is fixed.
Is there any chance you could narrow it down to a small reproducible test case? Unfortunately, the backtrace does not help much in debugging the problem.
hi @pd3
Thank you so much for the pointer, it was super useful and I was actually having the same issue. I filtered out non PASS positions and bcftools merge
worked smoothly!
I am glad you found a way around it. I would be still keen on having a small test case and fixing the problem. The program should not be crashing like this.
I'll try to debug it in more depth!
Hi,
First of all, thank you so much for putting together and maintaining such an amazing package!!
As I am trying to merge 75 VCF files from human chromosome X I keep getting this error:
Sample of list of files
Command running:
Error:
When I run it with a subset ~35 samples it works no problem, the issue comes when I increase the number of samples.
All the
.vcf.gz
files are very small <3.5Mb so my guess is it is not a total memory usage problem. Do you have any advice on how to go abou this?Thank you so much!
