Dear Galaxy community,

For both eggNOG 1.0.2 or 2.0.1 implemented in [usegalaxy.eu](http://usegalaxy.eu), the ‘Version of eggNOG Database’ cannot be changed (‘No options available’ is displayed as default), but upon ‘Execute’, this drop-down menu becomes highlighted in red with a ‘Please verify this parameter.’ being displayed, and eggNOG would not start.

Would be great if there was a way to get eggNOG started, and any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,  
Michael

Hi,

can you please try this again. I installed database 2.0.

Ciao,

Hi,

Thank you very much for your support - I have just tried this again: the drop-down menu is now working (with the only choice being database 2.0), and I was able to execute my job which is currently running.

Thanks,  
Michael
