Description

I've installed the databases in the MsaServer folder and run the startup and install script. It works fine, but the mmseqs-api does not detect the databases. The endpoint /databases or /databases/all return empty lists.
When we start the server, in the Databases.go script there is a line 229 that looks for "*.params" file. Where do we generate these from? I suspect since there is no params file in the database folder, it doesn't detect any.

Research direction

Start with Databases.go around line 229 and inspect how /databases and /databases/all discover *.params files. Trace the startup and install script alongside the MsaServer database layout to determine how the required files are produced; done means the endpoints return the installed databases.
