Common Nextflow errors

1. Nextflow pipeline stickied on revision

If a new pipeline version was released you might get the following error:

Project `eresearchqut/ontvisc` is currently stickied on revision: dev -- you need to explicitly specify a revision with the option `-r` in order to use it

You have 2 options:

  • If you want to keep a copy of the old version that works in your assets then just add the -r parameter and specify the version you would like to run in your nextflow command

nextflow run eresearchqut/ontvisc -r dev
  • The other option is to delete the old version from your nextflow cache located under ~/.nextflow/assets.

rm -rf ~/.nextflow/assets/eresearchqut/ontvisc

2. Compilation error

This generally means there is a bug in the code included between the brackets for this process and it is unable to compile.

Check your code carefully for any typos.
