Hello,
Thank you for your help in advance! I am new to coding and am trying to work with Metaphlan2. I believe I have downloaded metaphlan2 correctly and created a conda environment according my institution’s guidelines. I tried to run a job to analyze my data and I received the following error message:
Downloading https://bitbucket.org/biobakery/metaphlan2/downloads/mpa_latest
Warning: Unable to download https://bitbucket.org/biobakery/metaphlan2/downloads/mpa_latest
Traceback (most recent call last):

with open(os.path.join(bowtie2_db,‘mpa_latest’)) as mpa_latest:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘/rs1/researchers/d/dmfoster/work/env_met/bin/metaphlan_databases/mpa_latest’
It looks like the file “mpa_latest” cannot be found. It is not present in that path. Is this something I need to create or should it have been included in the download of metaphlan2?
Thank you so much for your help! I greatly appreciate it!
