I used tophat to map my RNA seq reads against a reference geneset and it didn't finish.
The error message came after "Generating SAM header":

I am using tophat v2.0.0
I ran 20 sets of data and only one came back with this error message.
Could anyone help me figure out why and how to get over it?
Thanks a lot!
