Hi Syed,

I did the following:

Changed Web.pm line ~1850 to:
$result_string = "xxx";
open(my $result_buffer, '>', $result_string);

and it is working.
Nevertheless, it writes "xxx" on the browser below the UI.
Could you please elaborate what is the purpose of these lines when
there is no assignment of a string to result_string?

Should I leave it as "xxx" or something?
Thanks,
Etai

Hi Etai,
Try executing the following code as an independent perl script, and let
me know what you get.

#=====================================
use strict;
use warnings;
use English;
my $result_string = "";
open(my $result_buffer, '>', \$result_string);
print $result_buffer "\n ======= BIOMART ======== \n";

close($result_buffer);

print $result_string;

#=====================================

Regards
Syed
