GATK error

Hi,all; When I run the following command
/bin/java/jre1.7.0_55/bin/java -Xmx2G -Djava.io.tmpdir=./java_tmp -jar /bin/GenomeAnalysisTK-3.3-0/GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -T UnifiedGenotyper -R /Database/human_19/hg19_fasta_GATK/hg19.fasta \
-I ./results/sample1/sample1.sort.rmdup.bam \
-L /Database/CallVariantRegion/ex_region.sort.chr1.bed \
-B:dbsnp,VCF /Database/GATK_DB_HG19/dbsnp_132.hg19.vcf \
-o ./results/CK-TUM/GATK/snp/chr1.raw.snp.vcf \
-stand_call_conf 50 -stand_emit_conf 10.0 \
-A DepthOfCoverage -A RMSMappingQuality -baq CALCULATE_AS_NECESSARY && \
Then a error below happened, Please help me, thanks

You are using command line arguments that are very old. Please check the documentation for updated usage of the tools you want to use.
When I replace the Argument with name 'B' to 'D' ,then another error happened ,see the following meaning the usage of version
ERROR ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR A USER ERROR has occurred (version 3.3-0-g37228af):

ERROR This means that one or more arguments or inputs in your command are incorrect.

ERROR Please do NOT post this error to the GATK forum unless you have really tried to fix it yourself.
ERROR
ERROR MESSAGE: Annotation DepthOfCoverage is no longer available in the GATK; it has been deprecated since version 2.4 (renamed to Coverage)
ERROR ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right, so you need to replace -A DepthOfCoverage by -A Coverage.
Before,I have used the version 1.0.6076,but a error happened, see the following,thanks, I don't know what it means,
So I try to use the version GenomeAnalysisTK-3.3-0, but some paremeter have been deprecated

@JintuWang
Hi,
The error message you posted is from a very old version of GATK. We cannot help you with those errors. Please try using the latest version and let us know if there is still an error.
Thanks,
Sheila
OK, I have solved the problem. Thanks
