Hi

I sorted out the proxy problem with a rather embarassingly easy call to
Sys.putenv().

Anyway, now I have lots of KEGGSOAP functions working but I get the
following error:

> get.pathways.by.genes("stm:STM0002")
Error in xmlName(node[[1]]) : no applicable method for "xmlName"

I get this error for any gene I enter.  In fact, stm:STM0002 is in a
pathway, it's in "stm00260 Glycine, serine and threonine metabolism".

I also got lots of warnings from a previous call:

> get.genes.by.organism("stm",1,10)
Type: string  & length =  10 
 [1] "stm:STM0001" "stm:STM0002" "stm:STM0003" "stm:STM0004"
"stm:STM0005" "stm:STM0006"
 [7] "stm:STM0007" "stm:STM0008" "stm:STM0009" "stm:STM0010"

10: Don't understand the SOAP type `string' yet in: fromSOAP(x, root =

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Thanks
