    Hi

    Looks like your user account does not have permission to use the docker socket therefore script cannot execute. If you are using an infrastructure then you may need to get help from your local IT or you may modify the wdl file to use local GATK installation instead of docker images. This may take a few experimentation on your end since your paths will be your own. 

    Otherwise if you have a chance to add your user to docker usergroup then you should be able to call into docker socket therefore this script will run properly as is. 

    Regards.

    Thank you for your advice.

    As you mentioned, it seems that Docker is not allowed in my analysis environment. Singularity is available, but as indicated in other questions, this issue is not supported by GATK. I will consider using a different analysis environment or using GATK locally.

    Best regards.

    Mitochondria Variant calling workflow does not use too many resources and should be fairly easy to run on local environments.

    By "local environment," do you mean a local machine like a Mac rather than an HPC? Is it easy to run using Docker on a local machine?

    You can run it on any POSIX compatible environment including Intel Mac or Linux machines.

    If you have an Apple Silicon Mac, our intel gkl dependencies are not aarch64 compatible therefore you may experience unexpected behavior in some cases.
