Hello. I am trying to install QIIME2 2019.4 natively using conda on a Mac running on macOS Mojave version 10.14.4. Every time I try to install QIIME2 I receive the following error message when trying to create a new environment using these commands
wget https://data.qiime2.org/distro/core/qiime2-2019.4-py36-osx-conda.yml
conda env create -n qiime2-2019.4 --file qiime2-2019.4-py36-osx-conda.yml
Ah, looks like wget isn't downloading the env file: the error message there is showing that your .yml file is actually just a web redirect message, rather than the env file. Did you install wget through conda, as suggested in the install guide? Either way, you could just download the file from your browser and go from there - keep us posted!
It looks like I downloaded the file incorrectly first but then when I kept trying to download it I didn’t realize it was saving as the file name with a 1,2,3,…12 after it! So I just had to change the code I was following on the installation page to a new file name with the correct number after it. Thank you!
