Tribble never saw the required #CHROM header, but it is there for the program GenomicsDBImport

    I'm having a similar problem (in my case, with the GenotypeGVCFs program). I've manually checked the VCF headers and it looks okay (There is a #CHROM header). I have also unzipped and gzipped, but I still get the same error. I'm using GATK 4.2.0.0

    I believe my issue was with the command line headers in the VCF. I attempted to merge the VCF files using CombineGVCFs and GenomicsDBImport, but received the above error when running GenotypeGVCFs. To resolve the issue, I added the following GATK command to GenomicsDBImport: "--add-output-vcf-command-line false". This resolved the error.
