Hi

I am having problems getting mpiBLAST running, I have formatted the database
using the following command:

/export/home/software/mpiblast/bin/mpiformatdb --nfrags=4
--config-file=/export/home/other/ol8/TraceDB/human/mpiblast/mpiblast.conf
--debug -i tracedb -o T -p F

Then submit the job the the sun grid engine:

mpisub 4x4 /export/home/software/mpiblast/bin/mpiblast -np 4 -p blastp -d
tracedb -i test.fasta -o test.out --debug=debug
--config-file=/export/home/other/ol8/.mpiblastrc

It seems to start the jobs okay and shows one job running on the master node
and 4 on slave nodes. However I left it running and it still hadn't
completed many hours later. This is only a small test database too.

Looking at the error output from mpiblast.sh.e38334 there is an error saying
it can't find the index files (see below) even though this database
definitely exists in the correct location. Below are the error logs, the
database .nal index file and also output from the debug mode of mpiblast.
Also my .ncbirc file - the Shared and Local directories are definitely
present and can be accessed by all nodes on the cluster so it's confusing as
to why it isn't finding the database indexes. I've even tried adding
the "--config-file"
switch when starting mpiblast to point it directly to the config file but
still get the same error.

If anyone has any clue as to what the problem is it would be much
appreciated! If any more information is needed to sort this out let me know.
Hope someone can help...
