    Cuffmerge Error Allocating Memory

    Hi,

    I am encountering error during Cuffmerge execution. The command I executed is:

    ./cuffmerge -s /extdata1/soft/TOPHAT2/hg19.fa -g UCSC-Ensembl.gtf assemblies.txt

    Assemblies.txt contains two lines:
    SAMPLE1/transcripts.gtf
    SAMPLE2/transcripts.gtf

    After running it gave me this error:

    [15:16:59] Assembling transcripts and estimating abundances.

    chr21:38435145-45747259 Warning: Skipping large bundle.
    Processed 33389 loci.
    [Sun May 27 16:57:47 2012] Comparing against reference file UCSC-Ensembl.gtf
    Warning: Could not connect to update server to verify current version. Please check at the Cufflinks website (http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu).
    Error allocating memory.
    [FAILED]

    Error: could not execute cuffcompare
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "./cuffmerge", line 576, in ?
    sys.exit(main())
    File "./cuffmerge", line 559, in main
    compare_meta_asm_against_ref(params.ref_gtf, params.fasta, output_dir+"/transcripts.gtf")
    File "./cuffmerge", line 406, in compare_meta_asm_against_ref
    tmap = compare_to_reference(gtf_input_file, ref_gtf, fasta_file)
    File "./cuffmerge", line 342, in compare_to_reference
    exit(1)
    TypeError: 'str' object is not callable


    It also gave me many warnings regarding the version of cufflinks (I think, It is ignorable).

    I have enough memory in the server, I don't know why it is giving me this memory error. I am running two more processes of Tophat alternatively. Is that the reason it gave me this error?

    Thanking you!

    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

    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...
