In the slurm file at the bottom there is this message:
There was a problem with the command:
(1/1) Invalid value for '--i-data': /home/areaume/Chapter1/16SCh1/rep-
seqs.qza does not exist.
There was an issue with loading the file Ch1Metadata_16S.tsv as metadata:
Metadata file path doesn't exist, or the path points to something other than a file. Please check that the path exists, has read permissions, and points to a regular file (not a directory): Ch1Metadata_16S.tsv
There may be more errors present in the metadata file. To get a full report, sample/feature metadata files can be validated with Keemei: https://keemei.qiime2.org
slurmstepd: error: Detected 909 oom-kill event(s) in StepId=428312.batch. Some of your processes may have been killed by the cgroup out-of-memory handler.
Let start at the top of this message which indicates that there was a problem loading the metadata, can you double check that all the file paths in your commands are correct and re run your commands again? If that doesn't work we can keep working through it!
