Moving pictures tutorial problem

Hey guys, I have experienced an error in the command in the Moving Pictures tutorial. The command

qiime feature-table summarize \
  --i-table table.qza \
  --o-visualization table.qzv \
  --m-sample-metadata-file sample-metadata.tsv

gives me an error

bash: feature-table: not found

What next?

(Techy people please be gentle with the lingo, this is my 2nd day of trying to do anything that's not excel and graphpad prism)

Hi @coralgal! Sorry to hear things aren't going well. This error means that your shell (the "command line," as it is often referred to) is having a hard time parsing the command it was given. Did you remember to activate your QIIME 2 environment? This step needs to happen any time you open a new shell session, that way your computer know how to find all of QIIME 2's pieces and parts. Let me know if that does or doesn't work for you, we will get you moving in the right direction!! Thanks! :t_rex:
