QIIME2 2017.12 installation error

User Support

Hi,
I am trying to install QIIME2 2017.12 natively for Linux 64. I’ve download miniconda and used python3 as instructed. However, when I tried to create the environment, I got the following error:
CondaError: CondaHTTPError: HTTP 404 NOT FOUND for url https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge/linux-64/pip-9.0.1-py35_0.tar.bz2
Elapsed: 00:00.218108
CF-RAY: 3d6c1e84ea8f456c-TPE
I removed the environment, cleaned the conda cache and rerun it several times, but it all ended up at the same error.

I looked up to the conda-forge at conda-forge and found no pip-9.0.1-py35_0.tar.bz2.

I highly appreciate if you could help me overcome the problem.

I have been trying to install qiime 2 on linux but the same error keeps coming up.

Hey @oceanchou and @basilin_benson!

Looks like that package has moved on conda. I’ll work on correcting the issue on our end.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hi again!

I think we’ve fixed the issue. If you run the installation command again it should find a new pip package.

Let me know if that works!

P.S. Run this to delete your old environment:

conda env remove -n qiime2-2017.12

Hi,

I tried this again today it did not show that problem anymore but I ran into another problem.

Executing transaction: failed
ERROR conda.core.link:_execute(481): An error occurred while installing package ‘bioconda::bioconductor-genomeinfodbdata-1.0.0-r3.4.1_1’.

Attempting to roll back.

What should I do next? I removed everything and reinstall again but I still got the same thing.

Hi @Nguyen_Nguyen,

Could you try running conda clean --all, and then conda env remove -n qiime2-2017.12 before trying the install instructions again?

That should wipe out everything conda has cached. I do know that sometimes the genomeinfodbdata package dies from network failure. It is hopefully just the case that you have a bad download that is cached and corrupting everything. conda clean --all should fix that.

Let me know how that goes!

OMG Thank you for your help.

Finally, It runs smoother than ever!

Many Thanks
