InParanoid blastall and formatb ERROR

[Izal]

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to find protein orthologs between strains using InParanoid.
But when I execute it, I obtain errors in <formatdb> and <blast-all> phase.
Is this normal? Or am I doing something wrong? The command seems simple.
Thanks in advance!!!


Command:

$ perl inparanoid.pl strain1.fa strain2.fa

Here, a part of the Output with errors:
