Hello,

The document about the command flag describes the flag ref_seq_choose_fail as this is set to true if something went wrong when trying to find the closest reference sequence within a cluster. Could you please tell me what does something went wrong means? Does this indicate the case when the closest reference sequence does not belong to the cluster, which is described in the ARIBA paper?

It could happen for many reasons, including when the closest ref seq does not belong to the cluster. In that case, you should see 'Closest reference is XYZ and does not belong to cluster' in the log. Otherwise something else happened, eg there were no matches between the assembly and the reference for whatever reason (like a bad assembly with short contigs).
