HUMAnN (v3.6) a new db update issue - CHOCOPhlAnSGB_202103

[franzosa]

See here for some discussion on this error:

Humann3 running indefinitely!

I checked in with the MetaPhlAn developers about this and they informed me that MetaPhlAn has an --offline flag that will prevent this behavior when running in a grid context (for example). Adding that to your --metaphlan-options should solve this problem when MetaPhlAn is called inside of HUMAnN. We’ll likely make this a default in a future HUMAnN release to avoid users needing to know about it ahead of time.

That said, I’m not sure what you’re doing here will work even after this is resolved if you’re trying to use a nondefault database?
