vg convert failes while converting gbz to xg with signal 6 error
1. What were you trying to do? I want to convert a gbz pangenome graph (created using cactus-pangenome) into xg format.
vg convert -x canidpg.gbz > canidpg.xg
2. What did you want to happen? The expectation was to get an xg graph file.
3. What actually happened? vg chrased with:
ERROR: Signal 6 occurred. VG has crashed.
4. If you got a line like Stack trace path: /somewhere/on/your/computer/stacktrace.txt, please copy-paste the contents of that file here:
vg: /public/home/anovak/build/vg/include/mmmultimap.hpp:242: void mmmulti::map<Key, Value>::sort(int) [with Key = long unsigned int; Value = std::tuple<long unsigned int, long unsigned int, long unsigned int>]: Assertion `false' failed.

5. What data and command can the vg dev team use to make the problem happen? I run vg convert on both the canidpg.gbz and canidpg.d2.gbz output files from cactus-pnagenome and in both cases vg crashed with the same error message.
6. What does running vg version say?
I got the same error using two different vg releases (v1.56.0 and v1.58.0)
vg version v1.56.0 "Collalto"
Compiled with g++ (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 11.4.0 on Linux
Linked against libstd++ 20230528

vg version v1.58.0 "Cartari"
Compiled with g++ (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 11.4.0 on Linux

Thank you, Lel
XG construction uses temporary files. The error message you got indicates that memory-mapping one of the files failed. The most likely reason is that you ran out of space in the temporary directory. You could try using another temporary directory to see if that solves the issue:
export TMPDIR=/somewhere/else
Thanks for the suggestion, @jltsiren.
Unfortunately, this is not a problem with not enough temporary storage. There is 6TB storage available for vg and the maximum it is using before the crash is below 100G.
It is neither a memory problem. At the time of the crash vg is only using 120GB of RAM out of the 300GB.
The gbz also seems to be valid, at least vg validate says that that is the case.
I am not sure how to proceed and what else to check to figure out what could be the problem.
I managed to build a full XG for the graph you sent. The *.node_path.mm file (which was the cause of the crash you reported) took 309 GB. The construction took several hours, and peak memory usage was ~300 GB, plus whatever was available for caching the memory-mapped file. The size of the final XG was 139 GB.
If you only need an XG with reference paths but no haplotype paths, you can build that by adding option --drop-haplotypes to the vg convert command. That should finish quickly, and the size of the XG should be around 16 GB.
