Support

You can email help requests to elastic-blast-support@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Please help the development team help you:

  • When reporting problems, please provide us with:

    • Your configuration file

    • The ElasticBLAST logfile (elastic-blast.log by default)

    • Your system’s information, i.e. the output of the commands below:

uname -a
python3 -m sysconfig
env
# For GCP only
gcloud info
# For AWS only
aws sts get-caller-identity
aws configure list
  • Always run ``elastic-blast delete`` after/before every ElasticBLAST search.

  • Always use the --loglevel DEBUG option (for now).

  • Consider using the unix screen (wikipedia, man page) tool to capture the output of your usage of ElasticBLAST and attaching the session log to your problem report.

Thanks! :)
