Which folder should I put phy_database in?

Hi,
I’ve been working on your tutorial recently

https://github.com/biobakery/MetaPhlAn/wiki/StrainPhlAn-3.0

StrainPhlAn: metagenomic strain-level population genomics

when I run step5, it says StrainPhlAn will call PhyloPhlAn to produce a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) to then build the phylogenetic tree. then I get an error

strainphlan -s consensus_markers/*.pkl -m db_markers/s__Bacteroides_caccae.fna -r reference_genomes/G000273725.fna.bz2 -o output -n 8 -c s__Bacteroides_caccae --phylophlan_mode accurate --mutation_rates

I can’t download databases from wget, then I download this database from chrome. So my question is

Which folder should I put this database in?

my metaphlan3 version is
MetaPhlAn version 3.0 (20 Mar 2020)

Hi, thanks for reporting this.

I think this should be under the StrainPhlAn category and most likely the best person to ask bout this is @aitor.blancomiguez who is developing StrainPhlAn.

Many thanks,
Francesco
