Description of the bug

Hello,
Can you help with this error. It repeats when I try to run this command:
nextflow run nf-core/atacseq -profile conda --input ./ATAC_samples.csv --outdir ./results --genome GRCh38 --read_length 150 -r 2.1.2

What is the problem and can you recommend any solution?
Thanks in advance,
Kasia

Might be that you have a conflict in your conda environment, see this post. If you could run it using either singularity or docker I will recommend it.

Thank you Jose,
Using docker, it worked!
Great recommendation,
Cheers,
