Welcome aboard, @sree!
Some of these questions (e.g. your view.qiime2.org errors) likely belong in separate posts. We'll discuss your first question here. Please open separate topics for every unrelated question.

@sree

is there anyway to create a barcode.fastq.gz file with quality information, like the barcode.fastq.gz file mentioned in the tutorial.

I'm having some trouble understanding your situation. Please take a look at your data, and determine whether the suggestions in these posts (1, 2) apply to what you have. If not, please share sample data help us understand what you are working with. The filename and the first few lines of the file should do it.

NOTE: questions about how to perform analyses should be filed in General Discussion, not User Support. Please take a look at November’s Changes to the Forum before you re-post your other questions, as different categories may apply to each.

Thanks!
