BSmooth - Error in env[[as.character(i)]] <- value : wrong args for environment subassignment

[ciganche]

I'm coming across a problem while trying to analyze WGBS data from CD4 and CD8 T cells (3 vs 3 samples). I used the following code:

bsseq_obj  = BSseq(chr = chr, pos = position, M = M, Cov = C, sampleNames = sample_names)
replicate = c(seq(1,length(group1_sample_list)), seq(1,length(group2_sample_list)))
bsseq::pData(bsseq_obj) = data.frame(row.names = sample_names, replicate, tissue)
bsseq_obj = renameSeqlevels(bsseq_obj, mapSeqlevels(seqlevels(bsseq_obj), "UCSC"))
bsseq_obj = bsseq_obj[seqnames(bsseq_obj)=="chr19",]
bs.fit = BSmooth(bsseq_obj)

For testing purposes, I am only focusing on chr 19 with 1057376 CpG sites in total.
The error appears after calling BSmooth:

Error in env[[as.character(i)]] <- value : 
  wrong args for environment subassignment
In addition: Warning message:
In parallel::mccollect(wait = FALSE, timeout = 1) :
  1 parallel job did not deliver a result

BiocManager::valid() returns TRUE.

Thank you very much for your time.

The root cause is this:

In parallel::mccollect(wait = FALSE, timeout = 1) :
  1 parallel job did not deliver a result

which means that one of the parallel jobs failed.
This can sometimes happen on HPC due to a job being killed (e.g., exceeding memory limits or running time).
What was the value of BiocParallel::bpparam() when you ran this code (this would've been used as the default value of BPPARAM in your call to BSmooth())?
You might try BSmooth(bsseq_obj, BPPARAM = BiocParallel::SerialParam()) to see if the code works when run without parallelisation.

Could you call traceback() right after the error and send the output?
