Warning: Cannot open division file '<null>'

[Claude Bonnard]

Hello,

Trying to use a database indexed with dbiflat, I have the followind result:

> pepinfo swissprot:104K_THEPA
Plots simple amino acid properties in parallel
Warning: Cannot open division file '<null>' for database 'swissprot'
Warning: seqCdQry failed
Error: Unable to read sequence 'swissprot:104K_THEPA'

The formatting is made with those parameters
--------------------------------
dbiflat -idformat=SWISS -directory=/db/swiss-prot/ -dbname=swissprot \
        -release=$SW_RELEASE -date=$DATE \
        -filenames=swiss.dat -indexdirectory=/db/emboss/swissprot/$SW_RELEASE
--------------------------------


In emboss.default, this base is defined as:
----------------------------------
 DB swissprot [
         type: P
         comment: "SWISSPROT sequences"
         method: emblcd
         format: swiss
         dbalias: swissprot
         dir: /db/emboss/swissprot/40/
         file: swiss.dat
	 indexdir: /db/emboss/swissprot/40/
 ]
----------------------------------


The content of this directory is:
----------------------------------

lrwxrwxrwx   1 emboss   sib           24 Dec 16 15:17 swiss.dat ->

----------------------------------

Any idea?


Thanks
