SRA fetch and preprocess of illumina with FASTP hangs about ngs-preprocess HOT 3 OPEN

Hi @0karl0 ,
Thanks for flagging this. I am going to investigate it further, however cannot commit on a deadline.
It is good to know that you could get your data with a workaround.

Once I have updates, I can update the ticket with them.

Cheers.

Hi @0karl0 ,
I figured it out the problem is that this particular study has technical reads. Thus, three files were being downloaded instead of only two what was expected since study is paired end.

What I can do is, provide a parameter to allow or not for technical reads and try to fix its processing.
Or make it always skip it.

What do you think would be preferable in this scenario?

I would probably vouch for skipping entirely the technical reads because they are more relevant for single cell data.

And I doubt people downloading single cell data would use an automation like this one.

But, would prefer to hear some inputs first.
