Dada2 unable to run

Hi, Thankyou so much for the patience for yet another silly question.

I am tired of running the below command:
qiime dada2 denoise-paired
--i-demultiplexed-seqs demux-paired-end.qza
--p-trunc-len-f 0
--p-trunc-len-r 0
-- max_ee 2
--p-n-threads 20
--o-table table.qza
--o-representative-sequences rep-seqs.qza
--o-denoising-stats denoising-stats.qza
--verbose

and the other command
qiime dada2 denoise-paired
--i-demultiplexed-seqs demux-paired-end.qza
--p-trim-left-f 0
--p-trunc-len-f 0
--p-trim-left-r 0
--p-trunc-len-r 0
--p-n-threads 10
--o-table table.qza
--o-representative-sequences rep-seqs.qza
--o-denoising-stats denoising-stats.qza
--verbose

My primers are already removed so i am not truncating or trimming my rreads. I guess Dada2 is unable to find the merge? The error is below:

classes)) tryInvokeRestart("muffleWarning"))

truncLen = c(truncLen, truncLenR), trimLeft = c(trimLeft,
trimLeftR), maxEE = c(maxEE,
maxEER),
truncQ = truncQ,
rm.phix = TRUE, multithread = multithread))

DADA2 in R (return code 1), please inspect stdout and stderr to learn more.

Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong? Also this is paired end data with CASAVA1.8 format. The symbolic links are all fine and alright and i was able to run the import an ddemux step.

I do not know how to add a picture to this question but I have the demux-paired-end.qzv output that shows the length of my forward and reverse reads

Hi @Ashoi_Dantra,
If you click the upload button (it looks like a bar with an arrow coming up from it, you can find it in-between the </> button and bullet point button above the text box where you write your reply) you should be able to upload your demux-paired-end.qzv for us to see. I think it will be helpful in determining where your dada2 run is going wrong!
