missing temporary bam files

[yeroslaviz]

When running talon with my three samples i get the following error:

$ talon --f Analysis/talon/FAT11673.config --db Analysis/talon/WBcel235_gtf_talon.db --build Cel.WBcel235 --threads 12 --o FAT11673
[ 2022-08-19 11:15:36 ] Started TALON run

pysam.utils.SamtoolsError: 'samtools returned with error 1: stdout=, stderr=samtools sort: can\'t open "talon_tmp/FAT11673_nanofilt_unsorted.bam": No such file or directory\n'

The config file looks like that

FAT11673_nanofilt,direct-RNA,Nanopore,Analysis/Nanopore_06.2022/talon/FAT11673_nanofilt_labeled.sam
FAT11673_porechop,direct-RNA,Nanopore,Analysis/Nanopore_06.2022/talon/FAT11673_porechop_labeled.sam
FAT11673_rawData,direct-RNA,Nanopore,Analysis/Nanopore_06.2022/talon/FAT11673_rawData_labeled.sam

CanI control the place where temporary files are written? Or how do I debug this problem?

thanks
