I am using a VirtualBox on Windows to access QIIME 2. I started having trouble when I updated to QIIME 2 v2019.1. Mostly, it was dealing with compatibility issues when I would use one version to perform a step and then I couldn’t use the other version to perform the next step.
Then I was trying to export files. I downloaded “biom” to transform files. Somehow in the process, I accidentally deleted “qiime taxonomy” from QIIME 2 v2019.1 and created a new “env” by following a list of codes on the internet and set it as default. So I have been using:
source activate /home/qiime2/miniconda/envs/qiime2-2018.6
source activate /home/qiime2/miniconda/envs/qiime2-2019.1
to jump around between different env. I deleted the other env, but I don’t know if that helped or broke things more. That was just for background.
The problem is that I cannot access anything that requires “qiime taxonomy” so I wanted to download the new qiime env so I could access all the features. However, I am getting the error message below:
conda env create -n qiime2-2019.4 --file qiime2-2019.4-py36-linux-conda.yml

I saw a post where you wanted the “conda -info” to help another person out so I will provide that below.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do, because I am honestly stuck at this point. Thank you for your help.
