Error while converting sra to fastq

Question

[gunavaran.15]

I have been trying to convert an 'sra' file to 'fastq' format using the SRA Toolkit. I used the following command

fastq-dump SRR8357214

I got the following error " fastq-dump.2.10.8 err: directory not found while opening manager within virtual file system module - failed SRR8357214"

Does anybody know a solution? Thank you so much in advance.

This has been asked many times before, please use google and the search function.

Alternatively try: Fast download of FASTQ files from the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA)

Have you checked the vdb-config (vdb-config -i) file?
