Question: An Error By Using Ncbi-Blast-2.2.30+ (On Windows)

Question

[gabreil.pagheh]

Hi all I downloaded blast+ software package (for windows), and installed.

Then, Error: NCBI C++ Exception:

To "..\..\..\..\..\scr\corelib\ncbireg.cpp", line 696: Error: NCBI: :IRWRegis try: : x_Read <> - Badly placed ,\ , in the registry value: , ROOT=C:\nASNLOAD=C:\users\jp\Desktop\BioEdit\tables\nDATA=C:\users\jp\Desktop\BioEdit\tables\, <M_Pos = 4>

How and where did you install BLAST+? It is usually a good idea to avoid using a folder name with spaces in it since they make life much more complicated at the command line, forcing either quoting of filenames, or "escaping" spaces as "\ " instead. This might explain the error about a badly placed "\ " in the registry.

I have the same issue - found no solution yet. No help from others either..tried reinstalling bioedit..made no difference.
