Hi Zac,
The contig names you indicate shouldn't give any problems. And if you
changed the names of MITE.lib right after creation and before using it
downstream, it shouldn't be an issue.

Have you confirmed if the prior blastx output has any results?

Also, be sure you use the same version of makeblastdb and blastx/blastn. I
remember reading before running the protocol for first time that in some
cases, switching versions could give problems.
And be careful if you copy/paste from the wiki page, there are a few typos
and dashes instead of minus characters in the command line option flags,
all of which will result in errors

Xabi
