Hi,

We are trying to view a BAM file at UCSC, created by Bowtie followed by 
Samtools.  The file is visible on the web at

     http://noble.gs.washington.edu/~ymao/proj/s_6_1.bam

However, when we upload this to the mm9 genome in the custom track page, 
using this track line

track type=bam db=mm9 
bigDataUrl=http://noble.gs.washington.edu/~ymao/proj/s_6_1.bam

we don't actually see any data in the browser.  When we instead upload 
the file directly, using the "Browse..."/"Upload" option, we get an 
error message that says "*Error Can't read file: s_6_1.bam*".

Since BAM is not text-based, it's not easy to figure out how to debug 
this.  Can anyone help us figure out what's wrong with our file?

Bill
