Error index f8

[bioinfogit]

Hi
I am getting following error
pysam.utils.SamtoolsError: 'samtools returned with error 1: stdout=, stderr=[faidx] Could not build fai index ../path/tmp/f8_ref.fa.fai\n'
removing f8 from gene list works and I am using the latest version
paraphase --version
2.2.3

Hi @bioinfogit I'm not able to reproduce this error. Could you delete that tmp folder and try again?

Hello,
the version is 2.2.3
docker image quay.io/pacbio/paraphase:2.2.3_build2

I received an error message when I executed the command in the Docker environment. However, after checking the outdir, I could not locate the tmp file.

I now understand the issue. My ensembl reference file lacks "chr" string. Could you fix the problem here?

Hi @themkdemiiir, Paraphase assumes GRCh38 has "chr" in chromosome names. Could you realign to the UCSC/NCBI version and rerun Paraphase? For best performance with HiFi data, please remove ALT contigs from the reference genome before alignment. We do have a recommended version of reference genome (with download links) documented here.
