[ensembl-dev] Error 500 using BioMart perl API

[Julien Fumey]

Dear ensembl team,

I'm trying to get data from Zv10 using the BioMart Perl API. When I try 
to build the registry, I obtain the following error.

Problems with the web server: 500 Server closed connection without 
sending any data back. No datasets available with given parameters for 
Location: ENSEMBL_MART_ENSEMBL

  Problems with the retrieval of dataset configuration
                Please check:
                that your mart Registry files contains correct 
connection params,
                that you are using the correct version on XML::Simple,
                that BioMart  databases contain a populated meta_conf 
tables and
                that you have set martUser correctly if you are running 
in restricted data
                access mode (populated meta_conf__user__dm)


I copy paste the registry from here : 
http://www.ensembl.org/biomart/martservice?type=registry

Is there a problem with the server ? Or maybe I did something wrong ?

Cheers,
