Dear all,
Thanks for your replies.
Gbrowse from memory adaptor is still not working fully. I get no graphics
(problems with GD, libgd; see below).
Gbrowse from mysql is not working. Originally I got this message:
====
Could not open database.
------------- EXCEPTION -------------
MSG: Unable to load mysql adaptor: Can't locate Bio/DB/GFF/Adaptor/mysql.pm

I was able to copy mysql.pm up one level in the directory hierarchy and as a
result no longer get this error. Now I get:
=====
An internal error has occurred
Could not open database.
Can't locate object method "new" via package "Bio::DB::GFF::Adaptor::mysql"
at /Library/Perl/5.8.1/Bio/DB/GFF.pm line 649.
Please contact this site's maintainer (you at example.com) for assistance.

This message, while deliciously ironic (last line) seems much less tractable
to me. Suggestions made include the possibility that the mysql header files
are not present. They are in fact present at:
fisher.tamu.edu [/usr/local/mysql/include] % ls
config-os2.h m_string.h my_dir.h my_sys.h
mysql_time.h sql_state.h
config.h md5.h my_getopt.h my_time.h

keycache.h my_config.h my_pthread.h mysql_com.h
sha1.h violite.h
m_ctype.h my_dbug.h my_semaphore.h mysql_embed.h
sql_common.h
So, my DBD problem is probably still a problem, but much less clear to me
now.
As far as the graphics issue is concerned, I thought I had identified the
problem(s). The problem with GD is that it could not find gd.h which was
not surprising since I could not get libgd to compile. It seemed that the
header file for fontconfig library was not part of my X11 installation
(Apple X11) which means libgd would not compile (I got this feedback from
correspondence with the author of gd at Boutell.com). After installing the
X11 SDK I can now compile lidgd AND GD!!! However, there were some warnings
during the compile of libgd and the upshot is I still can't get any
graphics:-( . Jason Stavich (I think) made the comment in an e-mail to me
that I had to be careful about the library versions for gd. When I compiled
gd I did get some warnings about library versions, but nothing fatal
happened. (see attachment for output from gd and GD compiles)
In the mean time, sorry to keep beating this horse, but it is not quite dead
yet. Any additional suggestions will be gratefully accepted.
Dave

There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government
