[Bioperl-l] needle parser in bioperl?

[neeti somaiya]

I ran needle like this

/usr/local/bin/./needle SEQ_1.REF seq_of_contig1 -aformat fasta 1.out

Please find the output attached.

When I run the following :-

use Bio::SearchIO;

my $io = Bio::SearchIO->new(-file   => "1.out",
                           -format => "fasta" );

while ( my $result = $io->next_result() )
{
       while( my $hit = $result->next_hit)
      {

               print "yes\n";
       }
}


It says :-

-------------------- WARNING ---------------------
MSG: unrecognized FASTA Family report file!
---------------------------------------------------

What should I do?
