Failed to create Conda environment

[Edward O'Neill]

I am trying to run a nexflow pipeline on some data via the Linux command line, but when I do so, it fails because it fails to create the Conda environment, and I have no idea why. Any help would be much appreciated. Here is the error message

Error executing process > 'my_process (1)'

Tough to say.  The --prefix argument instructs conda to install python to that location.  It could be that conda couldn't create the folder /my_file_path... due to no write privileges.

Suggest changing the prefix to a folder location that has write privileges or remove the --prefix argument (I personally don't use it).  Also, ensure the yml file exists.

Apologies, this issue has now been resolved. I needed to reorder the priority of channels that each program was being downloaded from with Conda.

Thanks anyway.
