Did you solved your problem?
I met the same problem with you. If you have solved it, could you share it with me?
Thanks,

Same problem here...
I came across this while testing SSPACE with the provided tutorial, before trying my own data.

it runs smoothly if no extension is used, but using -x 1, I get:

=>Wed Aug 26 17:19:16 2015: Mapping reads to contigs with Bowtie
Thread 4 terminated abnormally: Can't open bwa output -- fatal
Thread 5 terminated abnormally: Can't open bwa output -- fatal
etc...

Silly question probably, but anyone know why is it that when the read aligner designated in the library file is bowtie, BWA is still mentioned during processing?

The processing seems to have had some errors, so now I'm not sure of what to do of the output...is it complete or not really?

Thanks in advance

I was running the SSPACE-STANDARD-3.0_linux-x86_64 in my computer and was getting that error, then I changed to the cloud and could chose another perl version (I was getting some perl errors, like this perl was not built to support threads or something like that), I don't remember which one worked for me, either 18 or 20 but I think I also needed to turn the -x flag from 1 to 0 and then it worked!!

Has there been any progress in the investigation into the issue with contig extension ( -x 1) using SSPACE version 3? I would like to try contig extension but am getting the same error as above:

I think you can simply ask for it.
If not, send me a private message I should have sspace version 2 on my computer...

Process 'extend/format contigs' failed on .....

Hi everyone,
As you guys previously discussed, I am getting following error,

Process 'extend/format contigs' failed on...

While using -x 1 option. -x 0 runs fine. If previous versions work fine, where do I get them?

I appreciate any kind of help.

Thanks

Finally! Upgrading perl and CPAN module helped me to solve the problem.

Thanks a ton!

looks like you need sudo rights, but it's odd that you need permission to write in your own home directory.

[AdrianP]

what about sudo make install?

[ramesh.8v]

CPAN installation failed. I downloaded the module and installed using Makefile.PL. 'make test' was successful.

[AdrianP]

was the installation successful? Or did it give errors? Are you using perlbrew by any chance?

[ramesh.8v]

Thank you!
I have tried, but still running into the same problem.

[AdrianP]

Hello, see if this helps:

sudo cpan
install Perl4::CoreLibs
