Hello all,

I was trying Remote blast using Bioperl. My input data is a Trypanosoma
brucei sequence in Fasta format. When I was trying to submit to BLAST using
the step
$r=$factory->submit_blast($input)
It was not returning anything which I checked by debugging the code. It is
not blasting my input sequence even though I mentioned all the parameters.I
would paste the code below.

Please help me in solving put this problem. It is very urgent.

Regards
Roopa.
