Dear all,
i am trying to format the non-redundant fasta database (nr) downloaded from the NCBI repository. I have initially formatted it with the program formatdb from blast 2.2.25 that i had installed on my machine and it worked fine
However i have just upgraded to the latest blast 2.2.29+ version and i read that formatdb should no longer be used but makeblastdb should be used instead. So i tried to format the database again
but i get the following error:
Error: (1431.1) FASTA-Reader: Warning: FASTA-Reader: Ignoring FASTA modifier(s) found because the input was not expected to have any.
I don't quite get the error and what could that be. Does anybody have any idea? Thanks
