Failed to evaluate input error when running pipeline

[kmualim]

Describe the bug

I can't seem to run the pipeline, it keeps saying Failed to evaluate input 'fastqs_rep1_R1' (reason 1 of 1): No coercion defined from '"/oak/stanford/groups/akundaje/kmualim/06062021_ChromModelling/fastq/ENCFF680HKS.fastq.gz"' of type 'spray.json.JsString' to 'Array[File]'.

OS/Platform

• OS/Platform: Stanford Sherlock
• Conda version: conda 4.10.3
• Pipeline version: v1.9.0
• Caper version: running caper --version takes forever for some reason.

Troubleshooting result

Unfortunately, because the Caper server dies, I am unable to use caper troubleshoot to diagnose. cromwell.out is empty since I'm assuming the workflow doesn't start due to the failure in evaluating the input above.

What is caper's version?

$ caper -v

[kmualim]

caper v1.6.3

[leepc12]

Please check your java version with module avail java.
You need Java >=11.
Btw I will be releasing new stable caper + new atac/chip pipelines soon by end of this week.
That will fix all dependency/singularity/slurm problems.
