Hi, I have been using Chimera for some time and lately I can't seem to blast my protein sequence. "BLAST Database error: No alias or index file found for protein database [/databases/mol/blast/db_current/pdbaa] in search path [/wynton-local/usr.local/opal25-tomcat7/webapps/ROOT/appBlastProtein2Service1597130953690-1008200060::]" This statement is generated when I try to blast my protein sequences. What could be the problem? and how can I fix it. Kind regards, Bernadette Kutima

Hi Bernadette, We were doing system maintenance, so it is likely things were temporarily broken. However, I tried running Blast Protein from Chimera just now and it worked fine, so I suggest just trying again. I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
