Star Segmentation Fault

Question

[lkmklsmn]

Hi,
I am trying to run STAR RNAseq aligner to align reads to genome.
I have downloaded the genome from the STAR website so I think I can skip the genome generation steps.
This is what I get:
/../STAR --genomeDir /../STARgenomes/hg19_Gencode14.overhang75 --readFilesIn /../1.fastq /../2.fastq --runThreadN 8
Feb 05 13:37:04 ..... Started STAR run
Feb 05 13:39:19 ..... Started mapping

Any ideas?

How much RAM do you have? STAR needs a good bit of it.
