./tax_class: option requires an argument

[chandni177]

Hello,

I have been using NCBI Tax Collector for a lot of my blast annotations. It runs great half the time, but a lot of times it gives these warnings/errors :

./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 't'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 'n'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 't'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 'n'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 't'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 'n'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 't'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 'n'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 't'
./tax_class: option requires an argument -- 'n'

a long, endless list. Can you please explain what this means? Does it make my result file inaccurate?

Also - I recently got another error -
*** glibc detected *** ./tax_class: double free or corruption (top): 0x000000000179e010 ***

And then it went to backtrace and laid out the memory map. Does this happen if there is not enough memory assigned, or is there some other reason?

Thanks a lot,
Chandni
