No command 'diamond' found Error

[Shawn.S]

Hi, installed diamond on to my linux server using the binary download method. however when attempting to run diamond makedb --in nr.faa -d nr or even diamond help. I receive the error No command diamond. I attempted compiling from the source but that didn't work as well. Any assistance or direction would be greatly appreciated.

For a local copy of diamond you need to prepend ./ to your call like this:

wget http://github.com/bbuchfink/diamond/releases/download/v0.9.24/diamond-linux64.tar.gz
tar xzf diamond-linux64.tar.gz
./diamond
