I followed the example simulation 5.2 directional RNA-seq Protocol paramater file and usage ,the error that java nullpointerexception occurred.the java version is 1.8.2,and the environment variable is correct.

the command line code is  flux-simulator -t simulator -p hg19_stranded.par

error :

    Try this:

    On 3rd line (GEN_DIR) of par file, the directory genomes/hg19 on your machine must contain chromosome fasta files named as the first column of the GTF file hg19_RefSeq_fromUCSC100615_sorted_nuc.gtf (chr1.fa, chr2.fa, chr3.fa, etc).
