samtools mpileup error - 1 samples in 1 input files

Hi All,

I have relatively new to bioinformatics and have encountered an issue when trying to generate an mpileup file with samtools. I have entered the following command

samtools mpileup  -f /home/path_to_reference/nCoV_Jan31.fa.fasta sorted_sample1.sam > sample.mpileup

The message returned is [mpileup] 1 samples in 1 input files, nothing more is generated from there.

For clarity sake, my bam file has been correctly sorted and indexed. Could anyone offer any suggestions?

Thanks,

samtools bam mpileup sam

Do you know how much time it is supposed to run if only a warning? It seems I have the same issue and the process won't finish, it runs already more than an hour. Thanks
