Folks..!
I've been running tophat since a couple of weeks and I've seen no success so far
I have colorspace transcriptome data having 97 million reads. I've built Bowtie colorspace index as well. When I run tophat everything works fine, no error displays. The run completed perfectly all right; however, the output accepted_hits.bam file is COMPLETELY empty. The junctions.bed file is fine and is of 1.7 MB.
On the other hand if I take 500,000 reads dataset from this same data, there is no error at all and it gives bam file that too not empty..!! and I'm running it on cluster head node with 64GB RAM so it should not be a memory problem I guess.
Here is the command prompt and output display that tophat shows:
$ tophat -G refgene_main.gtf --color --quals /color_index/oceano_c Solid97M_F3.csfasta Solid97M_F3_QV.qual

Looks so good, isn't it?
the logs folder is fine except one file "accepted_hits_sam_to_bam.log" where it shows "fail to open "./tophat_out/tmp/accepted_hits.sam" for reading" even though the folder has chmod 777 permissions ???????
Any help please?
Any help is much appreciated
