I have a bunch of paired files with unneeded barcode tags within the middle of the file
.
I need to get rid of the barcode (which varies throughout the files) without modifying identifiers at the beginning or end of the file.
I have tried writing a script myself from what I've read online, but it appears to be a relatively poor attempt (screenshot of script attached)

Here's the error message I get when I try to run it:

Note that there are two types of error messages, first one I get, but I don't have duplicate file names in this folder so not sure why the second one is coming up.
Ideally, my final file name would be, for example:
LIB008983_TRA00020136_L001_R1.fastq.gz
LIB008983_TRA00020136_L001_R2.fastq.gz
LIB008983_TRA00020137_L001_R1.fastq.gz
LIB008983_TRA00020137_L001_R2.fastq.gz
..
..
and so on
Any pointers on how to do this? Any help/links would be appreciated.
