[DAS] Setting up DAS with ensembl plugin

[Jithesh M K]

Hi all, 

I am a newbie in this field. I would like to set up a DAS server with the 
ensembl plugin. I have tried configuring it but in vain. This is what I have 
tried. 

I downloaded the dazzle-1.00 source from the site and compiled it using the 
ant utility. It gave me errors in the file AbstractDataSource.java telling 
about the MatchType. So I used the DazzleDataSource.MatchType to remove this 
error. I got the jar file using the ant compile then. 

I got only one datasource ID test and the tss was giving errors. 

2004-08-03 15:57:51 Couldn't initialize datasource tss
org.biojava.servlets.dazzle.datasource.DataSourceException: 
java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access field 
org.biojava.servlets.dazzle.datasource.GFFAnnotationSource.REGION_PATTERN 
from class 
org.biojava.servlets.dazzle.datasource.GFFAnnotationSource$Handler
......
2004-08-03 15:57:51 DazzleServerMain: *** WARNING *** Lost a data source tss 

When I tried it with the test file provided with a client it also didn't 
give a proper output. I had followed the manual provided at the site. 

If anyone can assist me in setting up the server, I would definitely 
appreciate. 

Thanks in Advance
