Hello,
I have generated some biom files with make.biom and have problems to convert these files with the biom convert command. My biom files looks like this:
{
“id”:“C:\Users\afrontzek\Documents\Mothur_Daten\RV_Metabiom_V1V3_1\JHM0XVW01.shhh.trim.unique.good.filter.unique.precluster.pick.an.0.03.subsample.shared-0.03”,
“format”: “Biological Observation Matrix 0.9.1”,
“format_url”: “http://biom-format.org”,
“type”: “OTU table”,
“generated_by”: “mothur1.35.1”,
“date”: “Thu Jun 25 16:25:34 2015”,
“rows”:[
{“id”:“Otu0001”, “metadata”:{“taxonomy”:[“Bacteria”, “Bacteroidetes”, “Bacteroidia”, “Bacteroidales”, “Prevotellaceae”, “Prevotella”], “bootstrap”:[100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100]}},
{“id”:“Otu0002”, “metadata”:{“taxonomy”:[“Bacteria”, “Bacteroidetes”, “Bacteroidia”, “Bacteroidales”, “Prevotellaceae”, “Prevotella”], “bootstrap”:[100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100]}},
{“id”:“Otu0003”, “metadata”:{“taxonomy”:[“Bacteria”, “Firmicutes”, “Clostridia”, “Clostridiales”, “Ruminococcaceae”, “Faecalibacterium”],
],
“columns”:[

{“id”:“1515803”, “metadata”:null},
{“id”:“1515803d”, “metadata”:null}
],
“matrix_type”: “sparse”,
“matrix_element_type”: “int”,

[2,0,547],
[2,1,374],
[2,2,900],
[3,0,377],
}
The error message with the biom convert command is:
qiime@qiime-190-virtual-box:~$ biom convert -i Desktop/Shared_Folder/V3V5_Greengenes_OTU.BIOM -o V3V5_Greengenes_OTU.txt --to-tsv

Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
