I am trying to write a counts file using vcftools. Whether the output file is actually written depends on the prefix that I supply in the --out option. The .log file, however, does get written. Below I am pasting the contents of two log files written after my command. They only differ in the name of the prefix that I supply. What am I doing wrong?
The version that does write output
