Zheng's installation notes
Back to Chado New Users

general information
There suppose to be an easy way and a hard way to install Chado database on Fedora:
the easy way: use an existing rpm package. I have not tried it. but you can find information at installation using an RPM
the hard way: install by source. But yum makes it easier. The following is my note on installation of Chado on Fedora 6.
before you start
you can be a superuser or you can sudo to install packages;
you have yum installed in your path;
you have cpan installed in your path;
you have cvs installed in your path;
you have read the chado INSTALL document
get chado schema from cvs
see Chado_From_CVS, issue cvs command at my home directory.
install prerequisites
install bioperl live
[zha@localhost ~]$ sudo cpan Password: cpan[1]> install S/SE/SENDU/bioperl-1.5.2_102
install go-dev
download and unpack the go-dev package since need to set the GO_ROOT environment variable. Although right now only a perl parser module for GO is needed.
- in .bash_profile add line
export GO_ROOT="$HOME/go-dev"
