Patrick,

i assume you have installed the biomart server locally using the registry file that points to biomart.org i-e you have no data locally, only the software/webserver. In this case, the API even if it talks to your server would eventually send the request over to biomart.org to retrieve the data. I guess thats whats happening ?

Best,
Syed

Biomart Community,

We have a local Biomart installation on a Linux server (lets say the
hostname is foobar.edu) and used the MartConfigurator tool to setup a
mart. The data source was:

Type: URL

Host: www.biomart.org <http://www.biomart.org>

Marts: snp

Datasets: hsapiens_snp

With the registry XML saved and the webserver started on port 9000, we
can successfully query the data source through the web GUI. We are now
attempting to replicate this query through the Java API using the same
identical registry XML file on the server foobar.edu. Executing the Java
API client causes network requests to be sent to www.biomart.org
<http://www.biomart.org> directly. This surprised our team as we though
the requests should be going to the Biomart server we have running at
foobar.edu:9000. Is there a way to have the Java API talk to a local
Biomart server?

Thank you,

-Patrick Duffy
