Could not repeat a CpG extraction with the same reference file and its index

[sttongjai]

Hello,

I was using MethylDackel via Conda to extract CpG from a BAM file created by bwa-meth. After my first attempt of extraction CpG which was successful, my second attempt, aiming at repeating the previous extraction, was not.

I received an error message telling that the program could neither load an index file of a reference genome (hg38 with no alternative chromosomes) nor build one for it. It also suggested that the reference genome file could be corrupted. However, the index file from the previous run was in the same directory as the reference genome.

Could you please let me know what's a solution to this problem.

Thank you very much,

Siripong

I am also facting the same issue. When the program was run separately for each file it was working but not using bash script
