Busco issues while running

Hey there! I am trying to run busco in protein mode, as I recently assembled a genome and now I’m working on it. However, no matter how I change the parameters, I always end up with the error:

|2025-02-04 11:24:30 ERROR:|Unable to run BUSCO in offline mode. Dataset /data/db/data_managers/busco/eukaryota+2024-03-23-082359/lineages/metazoa_odb10 does not exist.|

|2025-02-04 11:24:30 ERROR:|BUSCO analysis failed!|
|2025-02-04 11:24:30 ERROR:|Check the logs, read the user guide (User guide BUSCO v5.8.2), and check the BUSCO issue board on https://gitlab.com/ezlab/busco/issues|

I don’t understand why it gives me the option to select the lineages if it later fails to run successfully. I cannot run busco on my terminal, so it’s really a need to run it in galaxy. Thank you in advance!

Welcome, @Ines_G_Luque

Interesting. Maybe the server where you are working has a tool configuration problem.

If you want to try at a different server, I was able to use this same index in a simple test at UseGalaxy.eu.

Then if you could share the server URL where the error happened, we can investigate and report the issue to the administrators. You could also send in a bug report to them.

Hopefully this helps and let us know if this was enough! :slight_smile:
