Could we get more information please than "it doesn't work"?  Do you
get any more error messages?  Is the exit code zero? (to see, run
samtools-cmd; echo $?).  Is the output file blank, or does it contain
something?  If so, is it a valid BCF file?

I suspect you're outputting the textual mpileup and not BCF format (-g
option). Try looking at the recommended workflows for example usage:
