We downloaded a standalone blast web server from NCBI website last year.
It has been working fine until very recently. A few new datasets with long
names
were added into the directory where we have all the blastable datasets.
After that, blastn
works for some datasets and all other types of blast search don't work. If I
remove these long-name
datasets, everything would work. There are no strange characters in these
names except
a few have '+' sign in the name. The problem doesn't go away if I only
remove the ones with '+' sign.
These long-name datasets themselves work ok for blastn search. The problem
is that their existence interfere
with normal function of other datasets.
If you know the cause of this problem. Please help, many thanks.
