Hi,
Im new to Biomart and Im having a bit of a problem. I am under the
impression that I do not fully understand how to work with the registry
files.
I have a large query batch that I would like to run using the perl api . but
when connecting through the URL using the following registry

<MartURLLocation
                    name         = "ensembl"
                    displayName  = "ensembl"
                    host         = "www.biomart.org"
                    port         = "80"
                    visible      = "1"
                    default      = ""
                     includeDatasets = "hsapiens_gene_ensembl"
                    martUser     = ""
/>


 I get a time out error . I understand that this may be due to the fact the
my query is very big ,I have a few thousand proteins that I want to query. I
read that one solution would be to connect to the Database directly and not
via the URL.
I tried the following registry

<MartDBLocation
                    name         = "ensembl"
                    displayName  = "ensembl"
                    databaseType = "mysql"
                    host         = "martdb.ensembl.org"
                    port         = "3306"
                    database     = "ensembl"
                    schema       = "ensembl"
                    user         = "anonymous"
                    password     = ""
                    visible      = "1"
                    default      = ""
                    includeDatasets = "hsapiens_gene_ensembl"
                    martUser     = ""
/>

but was unsuccessful to connect , in order to connect to the ensembl
database and use the human gene dataset. what am I doing wrong?
