[Bioperl-l] StandAloneBlastPlus

[Smithies, Russell]

If you want to continue using your current version, you could try to delete your old blast db first. 

if($checkbox eq 'yes'){
 unlink "mydb.*"; #or maybe `rm -f mydb.*`
 $fac = Bio::Tools::Run::StandAloneBlastPlus->new(
 -prog_dir => "/usr/local/ncbi/blast/bin",
 -db_name  => 'mydb',
 -db_data  => 'xxx.fa',
 -create   => 1);
}
 else{
 
 $fac = Bio::Tools::Run::StandAloneBlastPlus->new(
    -db_name => 'mydb');
}
