Blast progress monitor parsing problem

Hi !
Your script blast_progress_monitor.pl seemed interesting and I wanted to try it out. I made a small test that didn't work. Apparently some parsing is not working:

xapple@cluster test $ blast_progress_monitor.pl -o blast_hits.xml -i reads.fasta
====
DETECTED TABULAR OUTPUT FORMAT
FATAL AND EMBARRASSING ERROR - did not find lasthit <!DOCTYPE in query file reads.fasta
