Trinity Error, thread exited with error/Thread 5 terminated abnormally

Question

Hi all,

I am attempting to run a trinity De novo assembly on some reads with the following command:

nice -2 Trinity --seqType fq --left 4t1_S15_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,4t2_S2_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,4t4_S11_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,4t5_S14_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,4t6_S5_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,5t1_S1_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,5t2_S9_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,5t4_S12_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,5t5_S3_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,5t6_S7_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,6t1_S6_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,6t2_S10_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,6t4_S13_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,6t5_S4_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz,6t6_S8_R1_001_val_1.fq.gz --right 4t1_S15_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,4t2_S2_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,4t4_S11_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,4t5_S14_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,4t6_S5_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,5t1_S1_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,5t2_S9_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,5t4_S12_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,5t5_S3_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,5t6_S7_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,6t1_S6_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,6t2_S10_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,6t4_S13_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,6t5_S4_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz,6t6_S8_R2_001_val_2.fq.gz --full_cleanup --CPU 8 --max_memory 100G --bflyCalculateCPU --output ~/run1/trinity

I have tried adjusting the memory allocation (and added the bflyCalculateCPU tag) with no luck. Everytime my Trinity run exits with some type of thread exited with error/Thread terminated abnormally issue. Here is the exact output I have experienced.

If anyone has some suggestions of what I could try to fix this issue, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
