Blastdb not enough disk space #93

Closed drhoads closed 4 years ago

drhoads commented 4 years ago

In Win10 64bit with NCBI Blast installed but can't figure out how to get the Build BLAST database to run. The documentation says it will use the systemroot temp directory (which I have set to c:\temp. I have 100 Gb of free space on that disk but when I run the Build BLAST database I get: There was a problem building the BLAST database: Error: mdb_env_open: There is not enough space on the disk. I am assuming it is trying to write to a read_only folder some where. Any suggestions welcome. Tried setting environment variable BLASTDB=c:\temp and that didn't help

Found the solution in some previous cases: In windows you have to set a new environment variable: BLASTDB_LMDB_MAP_SIZE=1000000 Otherwise makeblastdb tries to steal way to much virtual space. It solved my problem.
