Description of the bug

When choosing to include the RSEQC analysis, an error is generated for most of the samples.
Below is an example of the error generated in the work directory for a failed sample: "SAMPLE.junction_annotation.log

[E::idx_find_and_load] Could not retrieve index file for 'SAMPLE_X.sorted.bam'

And here is the same log file from a successful sample:

The .command.log file for the failed shell script only contains the following:"total = 7365670", while for

the successful script:

null device 
          1 
null device 
          1 
total = 6648248

The error is puzzling as the process has completed for some of the input samples.

Moreover, the failure is occurring with files generated by the pipeline itself.

The only way I have overcome this is choosing to not run the problematic module, but this is not ideal.

Hoping someone may have insight to why this is occurring and how to resolve it :-)

Could you provide a reproducible example for this please, including some inputs (or just using the test profile if you can reproduce it there) and the exact command line and parameters used?
