  • Error during bowtie2-align run , (ERR): bowtie2-align exited with value 139

    I have a pipleline written in python that calls bowtie2-align. I am using bowtie2-align to align the same fastq.gz file against a set of amplicons.

    I am testing the run on three machines with the exact same data

    1) Linux box, Ubuntu 14.04 ,48 GB memory , everything works
    2) Linux box2 ozy,Ubuntu 14.04 , 32 GB memory , segfaults with err 139
    3) Macbook Pro, OSX 10.10.3 , 16 GB memory , everything works

    The details of the bowtie2 on the working and non-working Linux box ( both had the same one) are given below.
    On Linux box2 ozy, bowtie2-align crashes with the message:

    Code:
    Segmentation fault (core dumped)
    (ERR): bowtie2-align exited with value 139
    On this machine , I also tested with a compiled from source bowtie2 ( v 2.2.5 ) and it gave the same error (Value 139).

    The command I am using for bowtie2 in all cases is :

    Code:
    align_cmd = 'bowtie2 --very-sensitive -k 2 -x amplicons -1 %s -2 %s -S initial_aligns.sam' % (read1_fastq, read2_fastq)
    Can someone give me pointers on how to troubleshoot why the crash happens on only one machine and not the other two ?.

    Thanks
    Hari

    The only general way to debug this is to run bowtie2-align-s in a debugger (I think there's a bowtie2-align-debug-s or something like that that can be used for this purpose). I wonder if there's some quirky library on the "ozy" machine that's causing the segfault.

      Same issue...

      Hi harijay

      Were you able to resolve this issue?

      I'm having much the same problem. I have recently reinstalled my computer with Ubuntu 16.10 (Kubuntu) and installed Bowtie2 by running:
      sudo apt-get install bowtie2

      This works well and installs v. 2.2.9-4.

      When I try to do an alignment, however I get an error-message after a short while:
      Segmentation fault (core dumped)
      (ERR): bowtie2-align exited with value 139

      This also occurs when I try to rerun a previously made alignment using the same files and same command that worked on a previous installation, so it seems that something is wrong with the current installation. I have also downloaded the pre-compiled v. 2.3.0 but get the same message.

      There is actually generated a truncated sam file ending abruptly like this:
      ...
      @SQ SN:ENST00000557887.1 LN:2606
      @SQ SN:ENST00000564967.1 LN:2199

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
