I am getting error with whatever tool i use. The data files are provided by courseera, so there’s no problem with that. See the error ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/galaxy/original/2X/8/825d3ee70a49dd9d75f3ad8f4312d775e5739797.png) ---

**Update: Fixed!** If you or anyone else runs into this problem, the solution is to either correct the metadata directly as described below or to rerun the impacted jobs. Thanks to @nate for the quick fix! * * * @Abhilash_Tripathi Thanks for reporting the issue. We noticed it as well. Try clicking on the link, go to the Datatypes tab, and “Redetect” the datatype. You can also reassign the datatype directly. This will need to be done before inputting the data to downstream tools. We are working on a correction. More feedback soon. Thanks again!
