I always get error to run Quast in my metagenom assembly data. I don’t exactly the reason is. Can you help me to solve it? ![Screenshot (251)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/galaxy/original/2X/7/746d6df6137938e6ae24f266d3492332300a1a04.png) Thank you ---

Hi @Azmi_Zaki_Waliudin_A To start with, I would suggest checking the input to the tool (dataset 101?). Click into the collection to see the files inside it. As a guess: was an empty file input? You might need to rerun that prior step to produce a viable assembly. If you need more help, please share more details. If you are following a tutorial, what is the URL? You can also share your history and we can help to spot any adjustments that might be needed.
