csaw - Htslib import errors and missing reads/chromosomes

I'm working through csaw for paired-end ATAC-seq data (see my other post for more background on my general workflow), and I don't think my BAM files are being properly read into R. I have used numerous files that are coordinate-sorted (also have tried name-sorted) and indexed (via either samtools or Rsamtools) and I keep getting these Htslib errors and warnings upon csaw::windowCounts or csaw::regionCounts:

[W::bam_hdr_read] bgzf_check_EOF: No such file or directory
[E::bgzf_read] Read block operation failed with error -1 after zd of zu bytes

As the command continues, the first warning appears many times. The files ultimately end up loading, but I believe they are only partially read, as none of my macs2 peaks on chr1 show up (0 counts across all samples) and chrX and chrY do not appear to be read at all.

Example for

> standard.chr <- paste0("chr", c(1:19, "X", "Y"))
> param <- readParam(max.frag=1000, pe="both", 
                     discard=blacklist, restrict=standard.chr)
> binned <- windowCounts(pe.bams, bin=TRUE, width=10000, param=param)
> binned@rowRanges@seqnames

factor-Rle of length 211698 with 19 runs

Levels(21): chr1 chr10 chr11 chr12 chr13 chr14 chr15 chr16 chr17 chr18 ... chr3 chr4 chr5 chr6 chr7 chr8 chr9 chrX chrY

As you can see, no 10kb bins were called for chrX or chrY, and only 4 were called for chr1.

I'm pretty certain the BAM file is not corrupted as the headers and EOF exist, and samtools quickcheck elicits no errors.

And here's an example read via samtools view file.sorted.bam | head:

NS500653:255:H2YWNAFXY:3:11506:4441:16945       99      chr1    3000222 27      75M     =       3000302 15 GTCTAGGAAGTTGTCCATTTCATCCAGGTTTTCCTGGTTTTTTTTTAGTATAGCCTTTCATAGTAGAATCTGATG    AAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAEEEEEEEEEEEE/EEEEEAEAEEEEAE/E<A<AAA6EEEEA    MD:Z:65A9       PG:Z:MarkDuplicates     XG:i:0  NM:i:1  XM:i:1  XN:i:0  XO:i:0  AS:i:-4 XS:i:-41        YS:i:-5YT:Z:CP

Any suggestions for how to fix these issues when loading BAMs into csaw? I'm working on Windows, so maybe it would help to try this out on the Centos cluster.

UPDATE: ANSWER

I have not exactly identified the cause of this Rhtslib error, but I tried many alternative and repeated methods to generating these BAMs from scratch to no avail. This was ultimately remedied by using csaw on a Centos cluster with >100 gb RAM.

I have not tried submitting this command as a job with specific RAM designations, but my working theory is that 8 or 16 gb of RAM (on my local Windows machines) was not sufficient to fully load this experiment. This is further supported by the fact that another, much smaller data set could be successfully loaded on my local machine.

In conclusion: make sure your machine has sufficient RAM to load large experiments in csaw.

I also have met this problem in Windows.

I think it was caused by the old version of Rhtslib, Because when I use R in Ubuntu , i did not meet this problem
