[MOBY-dev] Dead services and how to figure them out

[Edward Kawas]

Hi Andreas,

If you go to http://moby.ucalgary.ca/cgi-bin/ServicePingerValidator and
enter the service details, you will see what the service tester sees.

The first service in your list seems to return a page that starts with
'syntax error ...'

Hi,

thanks for that it works....

one question i have about that - two of our services are marked as dead:

mpiz-koeln.mpg.de
	buildMultipleAlignmentWithMAFFT
	RPSBlast

and I'm wondering why ?

i tested them with the contract I know... giving an empty input should 
return an empty output.
They return an error message if no input is given - so this could be the 
reason, but all our other services do the same and they are not marked 
as dead ? so what is the base of this decision ?

now i'm also confused :D

Andreas
