[Bioperl-l] RE: blastall + perl

presumably the environment variables that blast needs aren't set in your
soap environemnt and/or the .ncbirc file is not set, or your  client can't
write to the current directory.
Have your script print out the env variables
while( my ($key,$value) = each %ENV ) { print "$key=$value\n"; }

Perhaps to make things easier you might short circuit using
StandAloneBlast in the first place and just make sure the code can run
blast on a file in /tmp
`blastall -i /tmp/file.fa -d dtabase -o outfile ... `;
See what kind of warning you are getting to try and figure out what is
wrong with the environment.
