Bowtie2
Hello,
I'm also having trouble installing bowtie2 and its undoubtedly due to my own incompetence!
I'm using a mac and have downloaded the bowtie2 source file and used the make command to unpack it.
now here's where my issue is, i have tried to set the PATH as described in this thread but i still get 'command not found' when i try to run bowtie. I am new to command line and reading around there seems to be suggestions of changing either bash_profile or bashrc, but neither seem to make a difference.
If i navigate to the bowtie2 folder that was populated following the make command, and list the contents, i can see the full list of files and executables including bowtie2. if i type bowtie2 (or .bowtie2) from this folder, i still get the same error 'command not found'.
I presume its something trivial that ive done wrong. Does anyone have any ideas?
My mac is not a vanilla setup and was previously used by someone who's then removed all of their programs and files, is it possible something was removed that i need to reinstall?
