I'm trying to run MaxBin2 on my contigs produced by IDBA-UD, but I run into a segfault error during the FragGeneScan step. Here is the command used and output:

run_MaxBin.pl -contig /Users/parfreylab/Desktop/lab_member_files/kevin/assembly/star/idba_ud_bb/cec_results/contig.cec.fa -out cec.contig.bin -reads /Users/parfreylab/Desktop/lab_member_files/kevin/assembly/star/idba_ud_bb/data/cec_reads.fa -thread 24 -plotmarker

MaxBin 2.2.4

=== Please make sure that you are running FragGeneScan 1.18 or above. ===
=== There are known bugs in v1.17 and before that will crash FragGeneScan program. ===

I tried running FragGeneScan (version 1.30) using the same commands found in the cec.contig.bin.contig.tmp.frag.out file, but this resulted in a segmentation fault. Could you please help me with this problem?

    This is a bit weird. May I ask if you have tried the simulated dataset like 20X, as posted on https://downloads.jbei.org/data/microbial_communities/MaxBin/MaxBin.html ? Thanks.

    Hi Yu-Wei, I was actually able to run MaxBin2 successfully on a Linux cluster (I was previously trying to run it locally on Mac OSX), so I will consider this issue closed. Thanks!
