Is that "as much information as you can give us"? You've not told us what you've tried. Can you write a step-by-step process that can be followed by anyone to reproduce your issue?

I am done with my alignment of the .fasta file to my reference sequence.

I have a .sam file I want to convert to a.bam file.

after which I will use the same package for marking doubles.

I receive: Unable to access jarfile

Did you follow the 'environment variable' link and use the steps listed there to set the environment variable $PICARD to the right value? $PICARD should contain to the path to the Picard jar file. What is the output to echo $PICARD?
