hi all,
I am pretty new to bioperl. ,I had installed bioperl recently and I tried to run the basic program from the tutorial as under :
use Bio::Perl;
# this script will only work if you have an internet connection on the
# computer you're using, the databases you can get sequences from
# are 'swiss', 'genbank', 'genpept', 'embl', and 'refseq'
$seq_object = get_sequence('swiss',"ROA1_HUMAN");
write_sequence(">roa1.fasta",'fasta',$seq_object);
but I got the following exception:
------------- EXCEPTION -------------
MSG: WebDBSeqI Request Error:
