Hi Dr. Chandni,
We have downloaded, decompressed, and run the sample test published in the website and works fine.
Could you please try to test the sample dataset following step by step the installation instructions described in
It should work with no problems, if not, please describe your environment (OS flavour, python version, ...). MetaTrans
was tested under Ubuntu 12.04/14.04. Unfortunately, so far, we can not provide further support for newer releases.
The error you get about "<INSTALLSHELLPATH>" is normally caused because you run "./config" more than once.
"./config" should be run only once. The first time is run it translates "<INSTALLSHELLPATH>" for the appropriate shell path
in your environment in the main scripts. Therefore, a second run will show up the error you describe.
Hope this helps,
Greetings
