Dear,
I'm running on assembly on our universities HPC cluster but unfortunately it is not working very well. The process successfully reads in the data files but then it fails in one of the next steps with the following error:
ABYSS-P: ../Assembly/CoverageAlgorithm.h:80: void AssemblyAlgorithms::setCoverageParameters(const Histogram &): Assertion `histFile.good()' failed.
make: *** [Test1-1.fa] Error 134
As far as I can see, there is a coverage.hist file created but it remains empty.
Here is the cmdline I use to start the assembly:
abyss-pe name=Test1 k=64 np=3 in='C1J25ACXX_1_0_1.clean.fq.gz C1J25ACXX_1_0_2.clean.fq.gz' se='C1J25ACXX_1_0.singl.fq.gz'
/apps/software/impi/5.0.2.044-iccifort-2015.1.133-GCC-4.9.2/bin64/mpirun -np 3 \
ABYSS-P -k64 -q3 -v \
--coverage-hist=coverage.hist \
-s Test1-bubbles.fa \
-o Test1-1.fa \
C1J25ACXX_1_0_1.clean.fq.gz \
C1J25ACXX_1_0_2.clean.fq.gz \
C1J25ACXX_1_0.singl.fq.gz
After reading in the data I get the following message in my STDOUT file:
1: Read 123000000 reads. 1: Hash load: 2181361997 / 4294967296 = 0.508 using 75.7 GB

That's odd. I've never seen any ABySS job fail while attempting to write that file. Btw,
coverage.histis the first file that the assembly pipeline tries to create.The only thing I can guess is that you are running the assembly in a directory where you don't have write permissions or where you have exceeded your disk quota. To clarify the problem, you could perhaps try running a simple test job where you attempt to write "hello world" to a file, or something like that.
Hello lieven.sterck!
