Hi,
My operating system is Linux Ubuntu. First, after instalation I ran run_example.sh file and everything worked. When I tried use example data from SRA in fastq format I get always issue as below (always at 21% withous any comment):

Before this, I had problem with fastq format, but I resolved it like here:
#10

And after this I have this issue.

It will be great if you will take a look on this.

First thing to check is whether the input FASTQ files are complete.

  1. Do the R1 and R2 files have the same number of lines?
    If the files are uncompressed, check with a command like wc -l filename_R1.fastq
    "wc" is short for the "word count" utility, and the "-l" option counts lines.
    If files are compressed, use a command like zcat filename_R1.fastq.gz | wc -l
  2. Do the file formats look correct?
    Inspect the first few reads in both R1 and R2 files with a command like head -n 16 name_R1.fastq
    Also take a look at the last few reads with a command like tail -n 16 name_R1.fastq
    If files are compressed, use something like zcat name_R1.fastq.gz | tail -n 16

If there isn't something immediately unusual about the input files, then I would try rerunning shapemapper with the "--verbose" and "--serial" options to help pinpoint the problem.

Thank you for advices. I'll check all these things :)
I hope the problem doesn't appear again.

Indeed, this problem occured because of incomplete input FASTQ files :)

Thank you!!!
