Hello, I'm writing on behalf of BSRC Al. Fleming Institute's BioIT Unit.
We have developed an online database containing mouse related web resources called the Mouse Resource Browser a.k.a. MRB (http://bioit.fleming.gr/mrb). One of the recorded resources is UCSC's Genome Browser ( http://bioit.fleming.gr/mrb/Controller?workflow=ViewModel&eid=238). On the "Technical Tab" of your resource's view you'll notice a section entitled "Direct Database Access". Under that section MRB provides a tool called "wsGenerator" which parses a database's schema and generates Java SOAP API classes and schema descriptive XML and PNG files. In Genome Browser's case we provide links to mm5 and mm8 databases located @ genome-mysql.cse.ucsc.edu using genomep as username and password as password. wsGenerator can successfully parse the mm5 schema but fails to parse your mm8 schema. Even with various MySQL clients schema mm8 and mm9 seem not to be accessible. Is there a reason for that? Are schemas mm8 and mm9 not public? Also could you point out other databases on your publicly available server that might be of interest to bench scientists working with mice? Thank you in advance. Kind regards, Michael Zouberakis _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
