[Bioperl-l] urgent help with AcePerl

[Todd Harris]

Badr - 

Which version of AcePerl are you running?  I believe newer versions use
sockets instead of RPC - perhaps the PPM is out-of-date as Paulo suggests.

You might also try building Aceperl from source which gives you the option
of building for rpc, sockets, or both.
