[EMBOSS] dbxflat problem

[ajb at ebi.ac.uk]

Hi Aengus,

Are you saying that it's restricted to RHEL5 or that it's the only
platform you've tried it on.

Assuming it's not restricted to RHEL5 then first check your RES
definitions in your emboss.default (or .embossrc) to verify that
the field lengths are not set too small.

If they look OK then you'd need to post us:

  a) Your RES definitions
  b) A URL/site and specify where we can get exactly the source
     data you are trying to index. Tell us of any modifications
     made to the data.
  c) The command lines used (already given below), plus any responses
     to any further prompts.

We could then attempt to reproduce the error.

HTH
