biomaRt error

Hi,

I am reporting a biomaRt error noted during some work.  The code did not return the flanking sequences of a SNP.

> getBM(attributes=c('refsnp_id', 'chr_name', 'chrom_start', 'allele', 'c57bl_6j', 'cast_eij',
'upstream_flank','downstream_flank'), filters=c("snp_filter"), values=( "rs6171921" ), mart = snpmart)->sps
  Variation Name Chromosome name Position on Chromosome (bp) Variant Alleles C57BL/6J CAST/EiJ
1      rs6171921               2                   157329549             G/A        G        A
Error in getBM(attributes = c("refsnp_id", "chr_name", "chrom_start",  : 
  The query to the BioMart webservice returned an invalid result: the number of columns in the result table
does not equal the number of attributes in the query. Please report this to the mailing list.
