Could not run fq2bam_meth

The command I used to run the pipeline is
Copy code
module load singularity/3.11.0

nextflow run nf-core-methylseq_4.1.0/4_1_0 -profile singularity,gpu \
         -c nf-core-methylseq_4.1.0/4_1_0/conf/nf-core-slurm/nfcore_custom.config \

         --em_seq true
The mextflow version is 24.10.5 and methylseq version is 4.1.0. I checked the work dir and the file the command was looking for was not there (end with bwameth.c2t.bwt). I am not sure if this is an issue with bwa-mem2. Below is what the work dir contains:
