<p>Use the SRR accessions, not the sample-IDs you are using.</p>
<p>With entrez e-utils, I found the SRR of GSM2683458:</p>
<p><code>esearch -db sra -query GSM2683458 | efetch -format xml | xtract -pattern IDENTIFIERS -if PRIMARY_ID -contains SRR -element PRIMARY_ID</code> is <code>SRR5755657</code>.</p>
<p>For GSM3603268, using <code>esearch -db sra -query GSM3603268 | efetch -format xml | xtract -pattern IDENTIFIERS -if PRIMARY_ID -contains SRR -element PRIMARY_ID</code>, the SRR is: <code>SRR8571942</code></p>
<p>Then just do <code>fasterq-dump SRR5755657; fasterq-dump SRR8571942</code>.</p>

How are you running the script? What arguments are you giving it? What is `get_ngc`? What are the files you are copying (`cp "${file}" .`), what do they contain? And *why are you running this as root!?* Never run things as root unless it is absolutely necessary. Any minor error or bug could result in destroying your system if you run the wrong command as root!

to test it locally I i first start the container and then I copy the script inside the container and run using a single GSM id as input here the issue is for this particular series of GSM id none of them works

> **Comments:**
> **username_1**: How are you running the script? What arguments are you giving it? What is `get_ngc`? What are the files you are copying (`cp "${file}" .`), what do they contain? And *why are you running this as root!?* Never run things as root unless it is absolutely necessary. Any minor error or bug could result in destroying your system if you run the wrong command as root!  
> **username_0**: to test it locally I i first start the container and then I copy the script inside the container and run using a single GSM id as input here the issue is for this particular series of GSM id none of them works  
> **username_0**: 'and why are you running this as root!? Never run things as root unless it is absolutely necessary' im running it in a container

Use the SRR accessions, not the sample-IDs you are using.

With entrez e-utils, I found the SRR of GSM2683458:

`esearch -db sra -query GSM2683458 | efetch -format xml | xtract -pattern IDENTIFIERS -if PRIMARY_ID -contains SRR -element PRIMARY_ID` is `SRR5755657`.

For GSM3603268, using `esearch -db sra -query GSM3603268 | efetch -format xml | xtract -pattern IDENTIFIERS -if PRIMARY_ID -contains SRR -element PRIMARY_ID`, the SRR is: `SRR8571942`

Then just do `fasterq-dump SRR5755657; fasterq-dump SRR8571942`.
