Reference files for ascatNGS

[umasaxena]

This link doesnt seem to work any more - ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/cancer/support-files/CPIB/ascatNgs/Human/GRCh37/

Is there an alternative to get the supporting files ?

Thanks

Which browser are you using? A recent update to chrome may have disabled ftp links. Using Firefox it works fine.

Was using Chrom/Safari/Edge - even with enabling ftp links in the browser setting, none of them work

Currently installed and using firefox - (Hope to keep trying)

Btw is there an alternative to getting this file perhaps through git ?
