[EMBOSS] A question about configure of pnddriver

[Ryan Golhar]

Xin,

We have a similar setup here at UMDNJ.  We prefer using EMBOSS-Explorer -
it's a very clean easy-to-use interface requiring the minimum of resources
and administrative overhead.

As for the graphics libraries, if they are in different directories, I
*think* you can specify them using "--with-pngdriver=my_d1
--with-pngdriver=my_d2 etc" or try "--with-pngdriver=my_d1;my_d2"

Subject: [EMBOSS] A question about configure of pnddriver


Hello there,

I am responsible to install the EMBOSS-4.1.0 on our supurcomputers in
Indiana University, I am not the administrator. I email them to ask for
where the png, z and gd librarys are installed on and found out there are on
the same directory. For the instruction file online, it states that "add the
new directory to your confiture line for  EMBOSS --with-pngdriver=my_dir
where the z,png, and gd libraries where eachinstalled using
--prefix=my_dir". 

I would like to know do they have to be together in my_dir, or I can state
seperately, for instance 

./configure --prefix=/miscapps/EMBOSS --with-pngdriver=my_d1
--with-pngdriver=my_d2 --with-pngdriver=my_d3
 
My second question is about Web interface of EMBOSS. As the policy of using
supurcomputer, I have to put the web interface and database on another two
seperate supurcomputers. I would like to know are there anyone sampled the
difference of the webinterface and know which one is better. Or I would
appreciate any suggestion for what I should pay attention to in this
situation.

Thanks a lots.

Xin
