Hi,

I am having problems with loading and making TxDb objects. Both of the commands shown below give me an rsqlite database or disk full error. I believe everything is up to date. These files work fine on my desktop, but are not working on my server for some reason.

 exons <- exonsBy(gencode, by=c('gene'))

Error in sqliteFetch(rs, n = -1) : 

  rsqlite_query_fetch: failed: database or disk is full

> gencodeVM4 <- makeTranscriptDbFromGFF(file='gencode.vM4.annotation.gtf', format='gtf')

extracting transcript information

Estimating transcript ranges.

Extracting gene IDs

Processing splicing information for gtf file.

Deducing exon rank from relative coordinates provided

Prepare the 'metadata' data frame ... metadata: OK

Now generating chrominfo from available sequence names. No chromosome length information is available.

Error in sqliteSendQuery(con, statement, bind.data) : 

  rsqlite_query_send: could not execute: database or disk is full

Here is the sessionInfo

OK I have tried a few times to replicate this.  But with no success so far.  Running the latest version of R (release) I can run the commands here (using the file mentioned above):

library(GenomicFeatures)
gencodeVM4 <- makeTranscriptDbFromGFF(file='../gencode.vM4.annotation.gtf', format='gtf')
