Error while running ContEst

[ersgupta]

I am trying to run ContEst(http://www.broadinstitute.org/cancer/cga/contest)

Below is the command and options I used:

java -Xmx1200m -jar ContEst.jar \
-T Contamination \
-I test.bam \
-R hg19_GATK_Ref.fa \
-L target_bed_file.bed \
-Bop,vcf hg19_population_stratified_af_hapmap_3.3.with.chr.vcf \
-B:genotypes,vcf test.vcf \
-BTI genotypes \
-o test.vcf.contest.out.txt

Here is the error report:

It seems to be some issue with chr15 because I tried it with 3 different bams files and the reference used to generate those bams is also same(same as the one I used with ContEst).

I am unable to find any such issue reported by anyone else.

Anybody else having this issue or knows a way around ??

Even I had the same error while running ContEst exactly at chr14-15.
Try it out with smaller bam files it works!

Anybody solved this error?
