Were you able to successfully run the latest version of the workflow with the demo data?

no

Other demo data information

I also tried running with demo data, 

$ export NXF_SINGULARITY_CACHEDIR="${HOME}/singularity"
$ export DEMODATA="/rsrch3/scratch/reflib/REFLIB_data/wf-clone-validation-1.2.0"
 -- I downloaded demo data in above location.

$ date; nextflow run epi2me-labs/wf-clone-validation \

Thanks!

Hi, for help its just a double dash --help, and when you try to run it looks like a singularity issue. You might find this blog post useful https://labs.epi2me.io/singularity/ - Does singularity work for you independently of running the workflow?
