BWA alignment/Samtools; Fail to read the header

Hello,

I have an issue with my alignment.

This is an error in my log file: fail to read the header from "-".

Here is my script:

bwa mem -t 8 -R "@RG\tID:$2\tSM:$3" ~/scratch/pt6/pt6.fa  ${1}_1.fastq.gz  ${1}_2.fastq.gz 2>log.bwa_new.$1 |samtools view -S -h -b - >$1.unsorted1.bam 2>>log.bwa_new.$1

Samtools version: 1.10; Bwa version: 0.7.17-r1188

I would very glad if you could help me!

Thank you!

It is the name of the fastq.gz file. It is not part of the file. My apologies. it just pops up when I run the bash script in prompt.

This is my command to run the script:

for f in `ls *i5_1.fastq.gz |cut -d"_" -f1`; do echo -ne "$f"; bash script_name $f HN AL5; done

Thank you so much!
