[BioSQL-l] BioSQL Schema problem

The biosqldb-views-pg.sql is badly outdated I notice. Sorry about  
that. Are you sure you need it? (Most applications will not.)

I probably shouldn't just delete but try to update it. The offending  
seqfeature_key table has long been removed from the schema and you  
can safely delete the view definition from the file, but there may be  
a few more errors given its age.

I need to investigate the script's failure on inserting nodes - this  
is assuming that you put the file by hand in the right place.  
Apparently there is an alphanumerical value that gets parsed as the  
taxon id (which must be numeric indeed).

--download is a switch and hence does not take any arguments, -- 
download 0 does ask to download, which is why you see the error. I  
don't know why the download fails, maybe there's a problem with  
extended ftp mode (EPSV/EPRT commands) but I don't know off hand how  
you disable them in Net::FTP.
