Segmentation fault: 11

Hi there,
I got the following error message after running, how should i deal with it?
loaded bwt with 87963178 compressed values Segmentation fault: 11
Thank you!
yukicyk,
Sorry you're having this problem, can you provide the responses to the following questions so we can try to diagnose what may be happening?
-
Can you provide the command you used to run fmlrc?
-
It's possible that something went wrong during BWT construction. Can you post how you constructed your BWT beforehand? Additionally, posting the output of the following command will let me know if something is wrong with the BWT header:
hexdump -C comp_msbwt.npy | head -n 10
-
This is a bit of a hack, but can you try setting fmlrc to skip 1 read in your input FASTA file? You do this by including "-b 1" before any of the required files. If you can post the output from that command, I'll be able to verify whether fmlrc is having BWT loading issues or if it's something else.
Thanks!
Dear holtjma,
Thank you for your quick reply and help, really appreciate it.
- Can you provide the command you used to run fmlrc?
./fmlrc 835.npy -p 4 835.all.fa 835.all.fmlrc.fa
Indeed I had successfully ran fmlrc using the same BWT file before. The problem occurred when I ran it second time with a much larger long reads file.
- It's possible that something went wrong during BWT construction. Can you post how you constructed your BWT beforehand?
I constructed the BWT using the msbwt package (msbwt-0.3.0 pysam-0.9.1.4) using the command as followed:
msbwt cffq --uniform --compressed ./835bwt 835_1.fq 835_2.fq
Additionally, posting the output of the following command will let me know if something is wrong with the BWT header: hexdump -C comp_msbwt.npy | head -n 10
Here is the output:

If you can post the output from that command, I'll be able to verify whether fmlrc is having BWT loading issues or if it's something else.
Here's the output from the command:
OBs-iMac:fmlrc-0.1.2 OB$ ./fmlrc 835.npy -p 4 -b 1 835.all.fa 835.all.fmlrc.fa loaded bwt with 87963178 compressed values Finished processing reads [0, 0)
Now the Segmentation fault error is gone, but the run finished instantly without the output file and generated an empty file called "4".
Thank you so much!
Cheers,
yuki
yukicyk,
It looks like you might have some ordering incorrect with you command line. The normal usage for fmlrc is as follows:
fmlrc [options] <comp_msbwt.npy> <long_reads.fa> <corrected_reads.fa>
So try running your command with all options before all required inputs as follow:
./fmlrc -p 4 835.npy 835.all.fa 835.all.fmlrc.fa
I think this is likely the issue, but if not let me know and I'll try to help out further.
@holtjma,
Opps, the error still occur:
OBs-iMac:fmlrc-0.1.2 OB$ ./fmlrc -p 4 835.npy 835.all.fa 835.all.fmlrc.fa loaded bwt with 87963178 compressed values Segmentation fault: 11
So since you successfully ran fmlrc with this BWT before and your command line options are in order now, I suspect that something unexpected is happening with the input long read fasta file. This could unfortunately be a number of things and it is hard to debug without looking at the actual file. Given that, here are some possible things that might create a seg fault in fmlrc:
- non-standard fasta format; the code always expects "labels" to start on a new line with '>' and all other lines are "sequences"
- the only supported characters in the sequences are [A, C, G, N, T]. Generally, unsupported characters just get replaced with N, but characters like "$" will actually cause a seg fault like you're seeing because the generic BWT implementation supports that character
If nothing obvious pops out, you may want to see if you can get a subset of the reads to run by using parameters like "-b" and "-e" to restrict the program input or create a smaller fasta file to see if you can identify an issue. Alternatively, if you want me to look at the fasta file, I'm willing to do that as well.
