Error message executing new tutorial

nassad · July 13, 2020, 1:59pm

Hi All! Really appreciate your work.

I am trying to run the SARS-CoV-2 tutorial using the sample dataset but come to the following error message:

Error in rule filter:
jobid: 103
output: results/filtered.fasta
log: logs/filtered.txt (check log file(s) for error message)
shell:

    augur filter             --sequences data/example_sequences.fasta             --metadata data/example_metadata.tsv             --include defaults/include.txt             --max-date 2020.52868852459             --exclude defaults/exclude.txt             --exclude-where division='USA' date='2020' date='2020-01-XX' date='2020-02-XX' date='2020-03-XX' date='2020-04-XX' date='2020-05-XX' date='2020-06-XX' date='2020-01' date='2020-02' date='2020-03' date='2020-04' date='2020-05' date='2020-06'            --min-length 27000             --output results/filtered.fasta 2>&1 | tee logs/filtered.txt
    
    (one of the commands exited with non-zero exit code; note that snakemake uses bash strict mode!)

Shutting down, this might take some time.
Exiting because a job execution failed. Look above for error message

Any advice? Please let me know if I can provide more context.

Thank you,
Nima

Hi @nassad! Could you share the exact Snakemake command you’re running to get this error and also the contents of the logs/filtered.txt file? The contents of the log file should help us track down the specific issue.

nassad · July 13, 2020, 5:07pm

Please note that I am not running in a Conda environment. I kept receiving permissions issues and am working on this.

snakemake --cores 12 --profile my_profiles/example -p

logs/filtered.txt:

It looks like maybe there is something unexpected with the augur installation. Can you share the output of the augur version command?

One way to ensure that you have the correct versions installed is to run the workflow with the --use-conda flag like so:

snakemake --use-conda --cores 12 --profile my_profiles/example -p

If you have miniconda installed, the command above should take care of creating the appropriate environment to run the workflow. This environment will be created in your ncov directory.

As an alternative to the conda-based approach, if you have permission to run Docker on your computer, you can install the Docker-based Nextstrain command line interface and run the example workflow like so from the ncov directory:

nextstrain build . --cores 12 --profile my_profiles/example -p

nassad · July 13, 2020, 7:04pm

$ augur --version

augur 9.0.0

I’m also getting errors trying to run the build from last night. I cloned GitHub ncov, uploaded most recent gisaid fused w/ our temp data. After fixing metadata (didn’t notice the two new columns) things ran until tree global. Was using default snakemake except, I added all of our samples to the “include.txt” list.

snakemake --core 16 --printshellcmds --reason

Because of this error, I added the files above to the exclude list and reran. When was getting errors that Wuhan 1 was not in the trees. Not really sure what is going on. I tried going back to some older builds, which also don’t make it through. However, I think this is because the Wuhan 1 files have been renamed.

I did notice that Wuhan-Hu-1/2019 is not in the GISAID build (but in the include.txt file) so I’m trying again w/ that line hashed out.

nassad · July 14, 2020, 2:42pm

My error ended up being on the part of my account permissions. The server manager was able to resolve it!

Thank you!
Nima

jlhudd · July 14, 2020, 4:01pm

@nassad That is excellent news! Let us know if you have other questions about the tutorial as you work through the content.

@oroak I have also encountered that Wuhan 1 error recently and I think I resolved it by re-downloading the GISAID sequences and running everything from scratch. Regarding the IQ-TREE errors, these may be related to characters in the strain names that IQ-TREE doesn’t like. We try to clean up those characters prior to tree building, but I’ll make a note too look into this more closely and confirm.

Regarding merging of your metadata with the curated GISAID data, how do you manage this merge now? Do you have a script that tries to handle matching of columns and de-duplication of strains, etc.? Or is this mostly a manual process right now?

oroak · July 14, 2020, 7:28pm

So I was able to get things to work on an older June build by adding reference w/ prior name. I just redownloaded as you’ve suggested. Wuhan-Hu-1/2019 is still not in the GISAID release. Will not having that break anything? Wuhan/Hu-1/2019 and Wuhan/WH01/2019 are available.

The metadata issues was just GISAID adding pangolin_lineage, GISAID_clade, & paper_url. We’ve just been following your template so didn’t notice the issue at first.

I didn’t see anything up w/ these names
Uganda/UG006/2020

thanks

oroak · July 15, 2020, 5:41pm

Getting a fresh, 2020-07-14 GISAID pull and commenting out those three samples led to a successful build.

nassad · July 16, 2020, 4:51pm

@jlhudd
I was able to run the sample data without issue. I am now attempting to run a similar build on 394 clinical sample from NYC. I have adjusted the division in builds.yaml and formatted the metadata to match the example. I have taken care to ensure the names matched the fasta headers and dates for each sample were formatted YYYY-MM-DD.

I receive the following error when running
