Error: Segmentation Fault in BCL2FASTQ
I need to convert my data from bcl to fastq, but I kept on getting Segmentation fault error. I use the command
bcl2fastq \
--input-dir /230810_MN01224_0003_A000H3C2HM/Data/Intensities/BaseCalls \
--output-dir /230810_MN01224_0003_A000H3C2HM/fastq_files \
--sample-sheet /230810_MN01224_0003_A000H3C2HM/SampleSheet.csv \
--no-lane-splitting
I tried a solution from BCL2FASTQ: Segmentation Fault Error (segfault) but I still get the same error.
I'm running bcl2fastq on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS using WSL. Not sure if this might be one of the reason why I get this error.
Any insights or suggestions you can provide to help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

That could very well be. Other thing to check is amount of RAM you have available for WSL2.
I think I do have enough. Are there any other options that I can try?
Do you get the segfault immediately or some time after the command starts running? Have you tried to capture/look at log files?
I get the error immediately. I am now using virtualbox to run redhat 9.3 to see if I will still get the error. Still in the process of downloading all my data.
I just hope that I have allotted enough memory and storage to run everything.
If you try bcl2fastq -h or -v, does it return help or version ?
Yes. The problem could be due to the use of WSL. I was finally able to convert all my files into fastq when I used rhel in virtualbox.
