Hi there,
I am trying to run makebastdb to create a new BLAST database. The program starts but cuts out abruptly with an Error:
Error: ncbi::s_FixBioseqDeltas() - Bioseq must have Seq-data or Delta containing only literals.
The input should be good. They are correctly formatted fasta files I pulled from Entrez.
The complete output is pasted below. I would appreciate any help or insight anyone can offer. Thank you!
$ makeblastdb -in Herpesviridae.fna -dbtype nucl -out Herpesviridae.db
