sratoolkit fastq-dump not working
Hi,
Can maybe someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I am trying to convert SRA to fastq files. SRAtoolkit version 2.8.2 I downloaded the files (here marked for convenience SRR1) and now trying to run the cmd:
fastq-dump --outdir fastq --gzip --split-files SRR1
I didn't get an error msg. I checked in top and the process is stalled (marked S) Nothing seems to happen... there are no process bars as described here (https://github.com/ncbi/sra-tools/wiki/HowTo:-fasterq-dump)
Can anyone shed any light? I checked other posts and didn't find a similar issue (as far as I can see at least) Thanks,

Do you have the correct
SRR#? I assume you just have a dummy entry above.Use EBI/ENA to get fastq where feasible: Fast download of FASTQ files from the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA)
