I'm new to Linux and I'm trying to activate “module load python2 samtools rseqc” but I'm running into Lmod version issues

Question

I keep receiving this error;

ERROR: rseqc/3.0.0 requires several additional modules. Run the following
commands to load all of the dependencies (including this module):

But when I try to load in python3 I get this error;

Lmod has detected the following error:  Cannot load module "python3/3.7.9" because these module(s) are loaded:
   anaconda3

Any ideas on what to do?

Answer 1

Try

module purge
module load python2 samtools rseqc

This unloads all loaded modules to prevent dependency conflicts when loading your desired modules.
