After running demux command of moving pictures tutorial , I got an error saying path "sample-metadat.tsv " does not exist. I already have downloaded the sample metadata file as mentioned in the earlier step of tutorial. After downloading I pasted that file to qiime 2 tutorial folder… am I making any mistake?? Where exactly should this file be present ?
Hi @RENUKA,
Sorry to hear you are having trouble with the tutorial! Based on what you have written, it sounds like you typed in the command incorrectly — the filename should be “sample-metadata.tsv”, not “sample-metadat.tsv”. If in doubt, use tab completion or drag/drop the file from its directory into the terminal to enter the full filepath for that file when typing out the demux command.
If you are still receiving this error, please provide the full command that you used, and the full error traceback.
I hope that helps!
