Snpeff run with downloaded genome database

Hi,

I am trying to run SnpEff (version 4.4) and I have already downloaded the hg38 database and kept it locally

java -Xmx4g -jar snpEff.jar -c snpEff.config hg38 test_chr22.vcf >test_chr22.ann.vcf

hg38 Genome has been downloaded and kept in a local path and is given in the snpEff.config file data.dir = /cluster/software/snpEff/data/hg38

However, snpEff is still trying to connect to internet to download the Genome database. I am running it some where I do not have access to internet and hence the genome database is downloaded.

Error shown below

Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx2g
00:00:00 ERROR while connecting to https://snpeff.blob.core.windows.net/databases/v5_1/snpEff_v5_1_hg38.zip

Add -nodownload -noLog to your command and see if that prevents the check.

It is working with the nodownload option along with, giving the path of local genome data repo in the config file

java -Xmx4g -jar snpEff.jar hg38 -nodownload test_chr22.vcf >test_chr22.ann.vcf
