I have an error when retrieving a large swissprot entry from the EBI SRS
server. I tried the same on the Sanger, Heidelberg, and Basel servers,
and there everything works fine. So I guess this will be system dependent
I run SRS4.04 on Alpha OSF1 rel 3.0.
Does anyone else have the same configuration?
In that case try
http://hostname/srs/srsc?[swissprot-id:insr_human]+-sf+embl
on your server
On my machine, this ends like
...
FT WITH INS-RES DIABETES MELLITUS).
FT VARIANT 762 762 R -> S (IN INS-RES ACANTHOSIS NIGRICANS).
FT VARIANT 1012 1012 V -> M (
Missing part of the feature table and all of the sequence
Observations
o Problem exists in SRS4_02 and SRS4_04
o Sometimes I get the error message "error parsing mark, bailing out"
on the controlling terminal. I have no idea where this comes from
o Changing the format to fasta/gcg/swissprot changes the position of the
truncation.
o Get the same problem with Netscape, Mosaic, lynx
Running Mosaic on Alpha with OSF1 3.0 or 3.2 or Decstation with Ultrix
does not change the problem.
o When running wgetz from the commandline, the full entry is retrieved.
Saving this to a file and loading in Mosaic, displays the full entry
o Commenting the SWISSPROT_FEATURE hyperlink in hyperlink.sdl does not
solve the problem. It even truncates the entry more.
o While tracing this problem, I found several other small bugs. I will
report the changes in a seperate post.
