text: user16419: as the title says I´m trying to run Bionanos HybridScaffolding from the command line rather than using their own software interface. This is commercial software to primarily to identify genomewide cancer analysis but also has options for genome assembly.
  I installed Perl and all the necessary packages to run the HybridScaffolding Perl script. According to their documentation I started the script with the correct parameters.
  After 2 minutes it stops giving me the following error:

  ERROR: Cannot open align0.stdout: No such file or directory
  
  For context: The HybridScaffolding script contains several scripts which are started automatically over time. One of these is the RefAligner script, which throws the error in this case.
  I have a folder called align0 which lies inside the directory that the script is running, therefore I guess this is not the casual "The path is missing" issue..
  Inside the Perl Script 'align0.stdout' appears two times:
  # error check
  if (errCheckRefAligner("align0.stdout", "END of output", "Initial alignment complete in $span.", "ERROR: Initial alignment cannot be completed.", 0) != 1)  {
      my $errMsg = "ERROR: Initial alignment cannot be completed.";
      printStatus(\*STATUS_FILE, "align0", $errMsg, 1);
  } else  {
      printStatus(\*STATUS_FILE, "align0", "Done", 0);
  } # RefAligner check
  errCheckRefAligner("align0.stdout", "END of output", "Initial alignment complete in $span.", "ERROR: Initial alignment cannot be completed.", 1);
  
  Sadly I don´t have any Perl knowledge at all. Does anyone have experience with Bionanos Software and/or knowledge of Perl and could explain to me what is happening inside this part of the script?
  
  user16419: I was able to spot the problem. I thought the Server I was working on had at least 256 RAM. Turns out it only had 64.
  I think HybridScaffolding needs at least 128 RAM. So when I ran the whole HybridScaffolding script on a stronger Server (1000 RAM) it worked just fine without any problems :)
  Edit: For the record, I also had to unzip the cmap.gz file because the RefAligner could not read it zipped.
