Open AnthonyShea1 opened 7 months ago

AnthonyShea1 commented 7 months ago

I am having the same issue as described in #61 . Is the site currently down?

The mentioned #61 issue above reads:

I am trying to download a database and I get the following: NOTICE: Web-based checking to see whether ANNOVAR new version is available ... Failed NOTICE: Downloading annotation database http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/download/hg18_refGene.txt.gz ... Failed NOTICE: Downloading annotation database http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/download/hg18_refGeneMrna.fa.gz ... Failed NOTICE: Downloading annotation database http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/download/hg18_refGeneVersion.txt.gz ... Failed WARNING: Some files cannot be downloaded, including http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/download/hg18_refGeneVersion.txt.gz, http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/download/hg18_refGene.txt.gz, http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/download/hg18_refGeneMrna.fa.gz If I check directly in the browser www.openbioinformatics.org it also does not work so I wonder the whole website is down for a reason....

The only difference is that http://www.openbioinformatics.org/ redirects me to https://github.com/WGLab

Thanks, Anthony Shea.

It can be due to many reasons such as proxy error, or that your server blocks non-https traffic. You could try "wget" command to download these files manually, or even just download them in your web browser using the URL below. Also almost nobody uses hg18 today. I do not know why you need it, but most likely you forgot to include '-build hg38' or '-build hg19' arguments.
