Hey all,

when running bwa mem from a python file using the subprocess module and capture_output=True, the log messages that bwa mem outputs while running are put into stderr resulting in an alleged error when checking if stderr is empty.

I've tried the -v option, but it hasn't changed anything. Does anyone have any tips on how to suppress the log messages or have them not go into stderr?

I'm studying bioinformatics, so this is my first time using these tools. Maybe I've just overlooked something.

Thanks in advance!
