snakemake about rule all

I am trying snakemake for my mRNA-seq pipeline and I got stuck in a simple thing.

from os.path import join


RSEM_INDEX = "/app/ref/ensembl/human/idx/GRCh37"
SAMPLES, = glob_wildcards("Align/{sample}/Aligned.toTranscriptome.out.bam")

print("---Sample Names---")

for i in SAMPLES:
    print(i)

rule all:
    input:
        expand("Expression/{sample}/rsem.genes.results", sample=SAMPLES)


rule expression:
    input:
        bam = join("Align", "{wildcards.sample}}", "Aligned.toTranscriptome.out.bam")
    params:
        rsem_index = RSEM_INDEX
    output:
        join("Expression", "{wildcards.sample}", "rsem.genes.results")
    threads:
        8
    shell:
        """
        rsem-calculate-expression --estimate-rspd --bam --no-bam-output -p {threads} --paired-end Align/{sample}/Aligned.toTranscriptome.out.bam {params.rsem_index} Expression/{wildcards.sample}/rsem.genes.results >& Expression/{wildcards.sample}/rsem.log
        """

Here is an error I got

    MissingInputException in line 12 of /app/src/mRNAseq/TBD170049_20170320_RNAseq/quantify.snakemake:
Missing input files for rule all:

I thought rule all input for your final files you want to make, but it's looking for the final files that are not made yet. I would like to get some help. would you help me please? Thank you in advance!

I am sorry. I will keep that in mind. I will remove this post soon. Thank you for how to ask a question the community!

Gah, cross-posting on 3 sites is not cool. I happen to have seen this here first, so that's where I already posted an answer.
