awk to split file using multiple deliminators

I am trying to use awk to split a input file using multiple delimiters :-|. The input file is just one field and the output is 6 tab-delimited fields.

The awk below does run and works as expected until I add the third delimiter |, which gives the current output below. I am not sure what is wrong. Thank you Smilie.

input
Code:
chr1:1013574-1013576|ISG15	
chr1:1013984-1014478|ISG15
chr1:1020163-1020383|AGRN

Code:
awk -F'[:-|]' '{print $1 "\t" $2 "\t" $3 "\t" $1 ":" $2 "-" $3 "\t" "." "\t" $4}' input

desired output
Code:
chr1	1013574	1013576	chr1:1013574-1013576	.	ISG15	
chr1	1013984	1014478	chr1:1013984-1014478	.	ISG15
chr1	1020163	1020383	chr1:1020163-1020383	.	AGRN

current output
Code:
	
	                .	1
			.	1
			.	1

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangExt - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangExt; $lext = code2langext('acm'); # $lext gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic' $code = langext2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm' @codes = all_langext_codes(); @names = all_langext_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangExt" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language extensions, such as those as defined in the IANA language registry. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language registry codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language extensions. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langext('acm','alpha'); $lext = code2langext('acm',LOCALE_LANGEXT_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'acm' for Mesopotamian Arabic. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
code2langext ( CODE [,CODESET] ) langext2code ( NAME [,CODESET] ) langext_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 ) all_langext_codes ( [CODESET] ) all_langext_names ( [CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext ( CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_alias ( NAME ,NEW_NAME ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_alias ( NAME ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext_code ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_code_alias ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_code_alias ( CODE [,CODESET] ) These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
