Tophat2: Error running bowtie:

[JonB]

I am trying to map illumina paired-end datasets using tophat2. Everything seems to work fine but I suddenly get an errormessage concerning bowtie:

Please look at the tophat.log file. Does it give you an error?

Thanks,
but I solved it. Ran out of memory...

Tophat2 error at the end

Hi dfhdfh:

I am newer in NGS analysis. I recently used tophat2 to align illumina PE RNA-seq. At the end of running, there is an error, I really don't know how to solve this problem. Please help, thanks.
I am using Oracle VM VirtualBox linux system.

Ouch. It is painful to get that error after running the analysis for 2 days!

So it did not make the "81MAGABXX_5PE" directory?

Thanks,
but I solved it. Ran out of memory...

can you please tell what is your system configuration and which genome are you using
