I needed to download new databases for Kraken2, but kept running into the same error:
rsync_from_ncbi.pl: unexpected FTP path (new server?)for https://..
There were many different solutions online, but none of them worked, despite the fact that the code should be updated.
For a very long time, I felt like this...
But, after some time I figured it out by myself, and thought I would share the solution with you all :-)
You just simply need to edit line 46 in the file: rsync_from_ncbi.pl
from
if (! ($full_path =~ s#^ftp://${qm_server}${qm_server_path}/##)) {to
if (! ($full_path =~ s#^https://${qm_server}${qm_server_path}/##)) {
Thats it...
