We are trying to set up Metaphlan on an HPC computer that does not allow direct internet connection. We installed with conda via a proxy. However, any metaphlan command tries to download the database and gives an error.
I am trying to specify a local database with this --install --index command, but I still get the download/error.
How do I bypass the ‘check and install’ feature?
metaphlan --install --index mpa_v30_CHOCOPhlAn_201901 --bowtie2db /workgroups/bio/Data/Biobakery/ChocoPhlan/chocophlan/
(biobakery) [smbrow3@vnode170 ChocoPhlan]$ metaphlan --install --index mpa_v30_CHOCOPhlAn_201901 --bowtie2db /workgroups/bio/Data/Biobakery/ChocoPhlan/chocophlan/
