Hi Luke and EMBOSS list

I've installed the EMBOSS GUI and for the most part, it's working pretty 
well.

However for some apps (mainly seems to be alignment type ones like water, 
needle, emma, but that may just be because I've tried more of them than 
any others), it always fails

Error: Unable to read sequence '&#39
Died: water terminated: Bad value for &#39-asequence&#39 with -auto 
defined
water exited with status 1...

or in the /var/www/html/EMBOSS/runs/ error log, 

Error: Unable to read sequence ''
Died: water terminated: Bad value for '-asequence' with -auto defined
water exited with status 1...

It doesn't seem to matter if it's sequence data pasted in, or uploaded 
from a file.

Some apps work fine, so  I'm guessing it's not a fundamental problem like 
permissions on a temp directory or something.

Are you able to point me at where to start lookng ?

Thanks,
Andrew
