It can also be that your temporary directory became full at one point or you set TMP= to a location that is not a local disk (i.e. set it to a network mounted storage location). The fasta index is based off of BerkleyDB which has issues if run of of network storage. In any case just restart, and it will probably get past the error on the retry.
