This page collects solutions to problems that people sometimes encounter when installing JBrowse.
Contents
Installing prerequisites - libpng, zlib, libgd, etc
JBrowse requires a few fundamental prerequisites that it cannot install itself: these are libpng, zlib, libgd, make, a C compiler, and a C++ compiler.
Linux - Ubuntu / Debian
These commands, or similar, should install what you need:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libpng-dev zlib1g-dev libgd2-xpm-dev
Linux - Red Hat / Fedora / CentOS
These commands, or similar, should install what you need:
sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools" sudo yum install libpng-devel gd-devel zlib-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker
Mac OS X
Use MacPorts, Fink, Homebrew, or another package manager to install a C++ compiler, libpng development headers, GD development headers, and Zlib development headers.
Other Problems
If nothing on this page helps you, try emailing the JBrowse mailing list.
The setup script creates a file called setup.log, contains detailed information on your installation. Email gmod-ajax@lists.sourceforge.net with a request for support, and attach your setup.log file to the email. Please do not put the setup.log file directly in the email body.
As more users try setup.sh and report problems to the mailing list, this wiki will be updated with fixes for common problems they encounter.
