sqlite3.OperationalError: disk I/O error

However, the disk is enough，and the conda version is: conda 23.1.0
And I have no root right.

Much appreciate fir the reply and help!

Hi @xiongqian123456789, there may be multiple explanations for the disk I/O error (files system integrity to accessibility to storage space left on the device), but none of these are related to anvi'o :/ Sorry.

Maybe you can try the anvio-dev version, and if the problem persists, you can try it on a different machine just to make sure it is not about the disk.
