Hello Michael, I cannot tell you why your tools are not working for all databases, but I can point out a few things that may be helpful to you:
1. You should be able to access genome-mysql.cse.ucsc.edu without a password. Instructions are here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQdownloads.html#download29 2. The only mouse databases that are available in full on the public server are mm7, mm8 and mm9. Earlier mouse browsers have been archived (http://genome-archive.cse.ucsc.edu/) and are no longer available on the public mysql server, except for a single "chromInfo" table in the mm5 and mm6 databases. > Are schemas mm8 and mm9 not public? All of the data on genome-mysql.cse.ucsc.edu should be publicly accessible. I hope this information is helpful. If you have further questions, please feel free to write back to the mailing list at [email protected]. -- Brooke Rhead UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group On 10/29/09 01:06, Michael Zouberakis wrote: > Hello, > > I'm writing on behalf of BSRC Al.
