[Bioperl-l] no blast result

[Frank Schwach]

Peter: in BioPerl 1.6 the default executable name in Bio::Tools::Run
StandAloneBlast is still set to "blastall" - I'm not sure if it works
with blast+ too.

Manju: as I said previously, you need to check that you can run BLAST on
the command line, i.e. make sure it is actually installed on your
system. Have you done that?
You can also check the Bio::Tools::Run::StandAloneBlast docs to see how
you can manually set the path to your BLAST executable if it is not in
your path. You have to install BLAST fisrt before you can run this
module.
The other error you get from yuor code refers to something that is
outside of the code fragment you show here, so can't comment on that
one.
