-sh: 171: /path/to/20191205.B-2744XJ_3_1.fastq.gz: Exec format error

I've been trying this command and receiving Exec format error. Can someone please help me on this matter?

I suspect there is a space or a cariage return in your original script. The shell tries to invoke the fastqs file if it was an executable.
