Hi there,

I am having trouble with abyss-pe failing during a run.  Perhaps this is a memory issue? (Although I am working on a 64 core processor with 512 MB RAM). Or perhaps a writing permissions issue?

Thanks in advance,
Andrea

Code:
nohup ~/abyss-pe np=10 k=64 name=SAF099abyss in='SAF099.1.fq SAF099.2.fq'

Here is the begin and end of the nohup.out file:

/usr/bin/mpirun -np 10 ABYSS-P -k64 -q3    --coverage-hist=coverage.hist -s abyss-bubbles.fa  -o abyss-1.fa SAF099.1.fq SAF099.2.fq 
ABySS 2.0.2
ABYSS-P -k64 -q3 --coverage-hist=coverage.hist -s abyss-bubbles.fa -o abyss-1.fa SAF099.1.fq SAF099.2.fq

Hi, Andrea. I'm afraid I don't see an error message in there that suggests why your job failed. If you're running on a HPC scheduler, my best guess would be that exceed either your memory or time limits and the job was killed by the scheduler. To trouble shoot, you'll want to find out why the process `ABYSS-P` died, was it killed by a signal, and what was its exit status. It's odd that there's no error message from `mpirun` as I would expect. Can you please post the entire log using gist.github.com ?

Cheers,
Shaun

I added the file to gist. I was able to run abyss on the same files again using 8 cores. Seems like a memory issue.  I also just ran into another issue and posted the file there as well.

Hi Andrea,

Can you post the link to your gist?

I don't think changing the number of cores would change the memory usage much.  (Regardless, it is loading the full k-mer set from the reads into memory.)
