[ensembl-dev] VEP unable to connect to Ensembl Genomes

[Nikolai Adamski (JIC)]

Hi,

I used VEP on wheat data on Friday (5th of June) without problems (ensembl-tools-80)

perl variant_effect_predictor.pl -i input.vcf -o output.txt --cache --species triticum_aestivum --cache_version 26

I tried running more data today, but keep getting error message:

-------------------- WARNING ----------------------
MSG: triticum_aestivum is not a valid species name (check DB and API version)
FILE: Bio/EnsEMBL/Registry.pm LINE: 1198
CALLED BY: Bio/EnsEMBL/Registry.pm  LINE: 983
Date (localtime)    = Tue Jun  9 10:20:21 2015
Ensembl API version = 80
---------------------------------------------------

-------------------- EXCEPTION --------------------

---------------------------------------------------

Using the --genomes flag results in the same error message.
Is the server down?

Many thanks for your help
cheers
