Hi everyone


I'm trying to run a Nextflow-based pipeline, but I receive this message: "This workflow requires Nextflow version 0.26 or greater -- You are running

version 20.01.0"


I have tried two commands to install Nextflow on my system: wget -qO- https://get.nextflow.io | bash AND curl -fsSL get.nextflow.io | bash

?Both of them install version 20.01.0. What should I do to get version 0.26


Thank you for your help

You can grab the binary (nextflow-0.26.0-all) from: https://github.com/nextflow-io/nextflow/releases/tag/v0.26.0 

You can also run a specific version of Nextflow using "NXF_VERSION=0.26.0 nextflow run ...." and it will automatically pull the correct version of Nextflow

Just to add that on the provided link there are 2 files the nexflow that will download and self "compiled" and the nexflow-0.26.0-all that is ready. just rename that one to a simple nextflow and you are good to go.

Thank you Sayerskt and Theo for your responses

  Based on what I understood, I removed my last version of Nextflow, downloaded nextflow-0.26.0-all, renamed it to nextflow, and ran the pipeline by writing NXF_VERSION=0.26.0 nextflow run 

But again I got the same message. Have I done something wrong?

What is the output of the following command?: 

NXF_VERSION=0.26.0 nextflow info

 Just to add that I remember I had some .nx* leftovers that were forcing the nextflow to reupdate?
In addition to what Paolo asked for, doa ls -a and take a look at the output.

Also had something similar.

Best

Here it is:

Version: 20.01.0 build 5264


I just remembered that I had put Nextflow version 20.01.0 in my PATH, so I removed and replaced it by the downloaded version 0.26.0. But this time when I ran nextflow info command, I receive a new error:
 

readlink: illegal option -- f

usage: readlink [-n] [file ...]

ERROR: Cannot find Java or it's a wrong version -- please make sure that Java 8 is installed


I already have Java version 13.0.2. Do you think I need to install Version 8?

Thanks Thao

Interestingly, when I ran ls -a command in my Home directory, I had ten files named .nextflow.log, .nextflow.log.1, ..., .nextflow.log.9. Are these making a problem? How can I remove them?

That are log files for debugging purpose. 

You can remove at any time.
