[Bioperl-l] GFF file and load_gff.pl

[Scott Cain]

Hi Richard,

Your mixing up two database schemas.  Do you want to use a BioSQL
database (bioperl-db) or a Bio::DB::GFF database?  I'm guessing that
you want the latter, so I'll answer that question (as it's the easier
one anyway).  You need to add the "-c" flag (for --create) to the
load_gff.pl command to create the Bio::DB::GFF schema.

If you really wanted a BioSQL database, you'll have to wait for help
from someone else more knowledgeable about it.

Scott
