Hi Achille,

This problem looks like have been fixed in CVS version of EMBOSS, as i
get reasonable output when i run CVS version of fneighbor with your
input file. This suggests current patches don't include the fixes I
thought they have. It is my fault that i didn't double check it before
returning you.

"-auto" is an emboss parameter which means EMBOSS should try runing an
application without asking further questions but using the
inputs/parameters available on the command line. We will consider
removing it from Soaplab job reports. "Standard error stream" is a term
used by Soaplab meaning "error output of the job", it looks like we can
improve its wording.

This is most probably related to memory used by your Taverna Java
process. I tested your 48 sequence alignment with all 3 workflows
attached, i didn't get any memory errors but i use a quite generous -Xmx
setting in my runme.sh file. You may try increasing the default -Xmx
setting in your taverna runme.sh file. Alternatively, as far as i know
memory used grows each time i run a new workflow in taverna, you may try
closing existing workflow run tabs before running a new workflow.

this was a good enough timeout limit previously, i think we can increase
it, let me discuss this with relevant people, if i execute the same
fproml job outside LSF it takes about 80 minutes which suggests a 2 hour
limit should allow your fproml jobs completed.

This is a bug in Soaplab (introduced by me), it should report the status
terminated, rather than completed successfully.
