Changing K-mer size of Minia leads to final fasta of zero bits

[desmodus1984]

Hi,
I am trying to assemble a genome of ~2.5 GB with ~15X of Nanopore data and ~65X of 100bps short-read data.
I did one run of Abyss and I got a pretty bad result and then I learned that I used the wrong k-mer size, too far away from the optimum (95). Then, I found out that there is a software kmergenie to find the optimal k-mer size, and I did it for my short-read data and it is 63, MaSurca said it was 67. For Haslr, I did not tune up the first time, and use the default parameters, and with k=43 I got an assembly of 672 MB, but the BUSCO was very bad, 13.3% complete, [S:13.3%,D:0.0%], 3.4% fragmented, and 83.3% missing.
The configuration I used was:
haslr.py -t 48 --minia-kmer 43 -x nanopore plus the Nanopore dataset in fasta and the short-reads _1 and _2 in fq.gz

• Gave 600 Gb and 48 cores to run.
  Since Haslr, uses Minia, I looked in the manual for parameter optimization and I found this:
  kmer-size The k-mer length is the length of the nodes in the de Bruijn graph. It strongly depends on the input dataset. For proper assembly, we recommend that you use the Minia-pipeline that runs Minia multiple times, with an iterative multi-k algorithm. That way, you won't need to choose k. If you insist on running with a single k value, the KmerGenie software
  can automatically find the best k for your dataset.
  The configuration was:
  compared to the first one, I only changed the k-mer size from 43 to 63.

And so I did, and I used the kmer found in kmergenie, and the final file asm.final.fa was zero bites!

Could you help me explain why I ended up with a zero fasta file:
The log file of the first run, showed no problem
