    Tophat running error message

    Dear all,

    I'm having the error message while running Tophat with the following command:
    Code:
    tophat -o tophat_run --bowtie1 -p 15 -G hg_19.gtf -r 250 --library_type fr-unstranded -M hg19 1.fastq 2.fastq > run_log 2> run_error_log
    Code:
    [2012-08-17 15:11:17] Reporting output tracks
    	[FAILED]

    Loaded 288111 junctions
    My input data is human transcriptome, Illumina pair-end read with 14Gb of left and right read each, total input file size is 24Gb, insert size is 250.
    My server got 128Gb RAM, 1Tb free space to run tophat and 64 cpu.

    I just not sure how this error will occur
    My command work perfectly nice for small set of data and test sequence.

    Thanks and looking forward to hear from everybody.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
