BBMAP paired-end alignment problem

[Mark]

Hi All

I'm having a problem with aligning Illumina PE reads with BBMap version 35.92.

Execution of

bbmap.sh overwrite=t ref=Z.fasta in=R1_001_val_1.100.fq in2=R2_001_val_2.100.fq minid=0.25 mappedonly=true out=out.sam  outu=unaligned_reads.fa maxindel=100000

yields out.sam which contains only alignments of read1 even though the log info seems to suggest read2 reads were also aligned

As a test I then tried

bbmap.sh overwrite=t ref=Z.fasta in=R2_001_val_2.100.fq minid=0.25 mappedonly=true out=out.sam  outu=unaligned_reads.fa maxindel=100000

Here read2 reads were aligned.

Any ideas what is wrong with the first command line for the paired-end reads?

Thanks

Mark
