Hello,

I just have a problem using bowtie2 (with paired-end files), and I don't know where to start to correct.

Error while flushing and closing output terminate called after throwing an instance of 'int'

(ERR): bowtie2-align died with signal 6 (ABRT) (core dumped)

I just compared the amount of the reads in the files and it's the same.

Thanks!

Have you checked the suggestions and solutions in this thread on SeqAnswers? A good first reflex is to google your error message. If you are using a common tool (such as bowtie2) the chance is big that someone else already came across the same issue.

Was there not enough room to complete writing results of the alignments to disk?

Signal 6 often indicates a memory issue. Please provide the full command and the specs of the machine you use.

Thanks for all the answers! I'm using a server with 16 Gb RAM and 2T of memory. The command line:

bowtie2  -x SalI -1 121_MSO_1.fastq -2 121_MSO_2.fastq -p 20 -D 20 -R 3 -N 1 -L 20 -i S,1,0.5 -S 121_unt.sam
