Hi Allan et al, Thanks for your suggestion, I have gone ahead and tried to connect to an existing database which is known to work (Reactome database), and it does give the same error. If it is any consolation, my local Reactome website installation is working fine, and for the Biomart installation everything goes well up until this point. Are there other checks i could do to possibly identify the source of the problem? Thank you Kind Regards, Nelson
