Hello, I don't know why I still have this problem.. I have run tophat2 with different dataset, sometimes it goes well but sometime I have this error. I run only one job at a time on a virtual machine with 8G memory without using galaxy plateform. I tried --no-coverage-search option but it changes nothing. Thanks.

[FAILED] Error: segment-based junction search failed with err =-9 Collecting potential splice sites in islands cp: cannot stat `/home/galaxy/galaxy- dist/database/job_working_directory/000/515/tophat_out/deletions.bed': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/database/job_working_directo ry/000/515/tophat_out/insertions.bed': No such file or directory I did some research on the internet and it seems to be a memory problem to me, is there any solution other than rerun these jobs on a more powerful machine? And why has Bowtie/Tophat discard different numbers of reads? What will be the impact? Does it means that if I don't have exact matches between the paired end input, it is still be possible to run the job? Thanks, Delong

Hi Delong, If you are mapping against a large reference genome and your datasets are large, 8G of memory may simply not be enough, even with omitting this paramater. Also, if you have set other TopHat parameters to be sensitive, then those can also be contributing to memory usage. Splitting the job up is still an option to try, as in the original post: http://gmod.827538.n3.nabble.com/Tophat-Error-segment-based-junction- search-failed-with-err-td4035978.html There are likely content differences between the datasets. A tool such as FastQC is a good one to use to investigate. Do you mean that the tool fails on the line command? Then it will also fail in Galaxy using the same resources, this is expected. If you do not want to split the job up, you could consider a Cloud Galaxy: http://usegalaxy.org/cloud Best, Jen Galaxy team -- Jennifer Hillman-Jackson http://galaxyproject.org
