	CopyDB.cgi is a script at the mascot server. It handles the setting and getting from a database. To write this script had two different reasons. First the function ''reduce_search_space'' [[ProDBWiki/DeveloperDocumentation/reduceSearchSpace]] from msanalysis.cgi needed to send a database to mascot, so that it can make a search against the database. Therefore you can use the function ''set_database''. Second, the search tool emowse needed to get the selected databases, from the search form, from mascot to submit his searches to the databases. For this problem you can use the function ''get_database''.		CopyDB.cgi is a script at the mascot server. It handles the setting and getting from a database.

	A request is send via HTTP to this script. To use one of the functions you need to set different attributes set = 1 for set_database and get = 1 for get_database.

It is important, that the attribute Content_Type in @request_data is "multipart/form-data". You need this to send a file. $file contains the path to the temporary database. After it is send, copyDB.cgi at first loads $file up and than saves it to /var/data/mascot/incoming/prodb-tmp_1.faa. From there the file is moved to /var/data/mascot/current where all databases from mascot are. If everything went fine, copyDB.cgi returns the path to the database, else it returns "Didn't work".

			To use this function you have to be sure that no one else is using it at the moment. Otherwise the file from the first user would be overwritten
