Hi all. I downloaded blast, and can make it work fine when I blast one data set against another (after formatting them) , but I can't seem to get the program to do a blast against the nr database that I downloaded and unpacked. My command lines is: blastn -query C:\Users\horvathd\Desktop\DREB.fa -db nr -out C:\Users\horvathd\Desktop\Dreb_vs_nr.txt -evalue 1e-5 -num_alignments 20 -outfmt 0 -num_descriptions 20
I get the following error
BLAST Database error: No alias or index file found for nucleotide database [nr]
in search path [C:\Program Files\NCBI\blast-2.2.24+\bin;;]
I unpacked the nr files in the "bin" folder. I can blast the DREB.fa file against other databases I have created with no problem. Any idea what I am doing wrong?
