Dear all,

Humann3 fail to re-produce the pathabundance and pathcoverage like the toturial in my machine by following command while the genefamilies is right:

humann -i demo.fastq.gz -o functions --diamond …/…/ --thread 4

Hello, Thank you for the detailed post. I don’t see any errors in your run so I think it all looks okay. If you are using a different database type/version your results might differ slightly from those in the demo.

Thank you,  
Lauren
