[Soaplab-users] Multiple input files with filelist

[Andrew E. <a.e...@ci...>]

Hi

I am having problems using the ACD filelist command to pass a variable 
number of input files to soaplab.

My ACD file is very simple:

======
appl: bioconductor [
    documentation: "Bioconductor example using affy expresso"
    version: "1.0"
    groups: "Microarrays"
    nonemboss: "Y"
    executable: affy-expresso.pl
]


filelist: templates [
   prompt: "CEL files"
   qualifier: "f"
]

outfile: result [
    additional:"Y"
    prompt: "Normalised affy output"
    qualifier: "o"
]

========

Using Taverna I get the following message,

Task failed due to problem invoking soaplab service
....
org.embl.ebi.SoaplabShare.Soaplab.Exception: CONFLICTING_INPUT. templates * 
(Parameter: (CORBA related problem) Unknown TypeCode Kind

While the soaplab.log gives me:

| Wrong or incomplete input (in JobAppLab): 1 exception(s)

I may be using Taverna wrongly but with just about every possible 
combination of inputs I get the same error. Any clues? Everything works 
perfectly with a well-defined number of inputs using ACD infile.

many thanks
Andy Emerson
