Racon cannot work with duplucates in paf file

[Oieswarya]

I have aligned contigs to longreads using Minimap2 and generated the paf file. I am trying to use racon to get a consensus of these.
The command I am using:
./racon PA_hifi.fa minimapConToHiFimapped_PA.paf minia_contigs_Pseudomonas.contigs.fa

and the error I am getting is:
[racon::Polisher::initialize] loaded target sequences 0.059568 s
[racon::Polisher::initialize] error: duplicate sequence 0 with unequal data

I know that minimap2 gives more than one position for a particular contig. Is that the reason I am getting this error?

But I am also having the same error with mashmap alignment where it is giving me one hit. I have checked by grep if my files have any duplicate sequences or not which it does not.

Hello,
do files PA_hifi.fa and minia_contigs_Pseudomonas.contigs.fa have a sequence with the same name but different data? Racon has error correction mode for which we included a check that if a sequence name appears in both files it should have the same length (which should imply the same contents).

Best regards,
Robert
