Hello,
I've been using Qiime for a while now without any issues. However, I've recently run into some problems with a specific dataset using the script pick_open_reference_otus.py. When I run the command for the samples individually, all works fine, however, when I concatenate the sequences together into a single file, then run the script on it, the following error occurs:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I've checked that usearch is up to date, and it works with other datasets (and with these samples, individually). Below are my specifications and attached are the log files generated. The only thing i can think of is a memory issue, which I'm not sure how to circumvent (i'm running this on a pretty large shared server, which hasn't had problems with larger data sets, and i've tried turning off pick_otus:enable_rev_strand_match ).

There seem to be similar reports in the forums with this error line, but mine has stalled at the first step, whereas others seem to have gotten further. The same error occurs if I attempt to run the script pick_otus.py on the dataset:
