can't download reference genome/annotation #16

Open shoy91 opened 7 years ago

shoy91 commented 7 years ago

Hi!

I'm trying to run transvar config --download_ref --refversion hg19 and transvar config --download_anno --refversion hg19. It will create a download folder (.transvar.download) in my home directory but nothing is in it. I've also tried to change the transvar download directory by specifying a path to it in my env variable like you all had suggested (ie. export TRANSVAR_DOWNLOAD_DIR=/diskmnt/Software/bin/transvar.download). Nothing happens and it seems to still create a folder in my home directory. Can you help me with this?

Thanks! Sohini

I figured it out! nvm!

Hi @shoy91 , what did you do to get it to work?

zwdzwd commented 7 years ago

Hi @NitaH0321 see if you can access http://transvar.info/transvar_user/annotations/ This is currently where annotations were retrieved.

Hi @zwdzwd, do you by any chance have the CCDS transvardb files available for hg38 please?

Also for me the config seems to be unable to download the files (Mac OS 10.15). Looking at the config.py I see the above URL (transvar.info) is depracated and that http://zwdzwd.io/ is used. However, http://zwdzwd.io/transvar_user/annotations/uniprot.idmapping.txt.gz.idx or any of the URLs gives a status 404 response. Switching on the SSL layer (https) does the same. So if the URL has changed, what is it? Thanks

transvar.info is down too. Does anyone know an alternative download site?

I apologise that it's rather ungracious mentioning other tools, but as the databases are down, I ought to mention that I ended up using Backlocated —java based though.
