Good Morning Joseph: You will need at least a couple of files in the /gbdb/ directory. Please note: http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Minimal_Browser_Installation
And additional instructions about the browser mirror procedures in the source tree directory src/product/ and src/product/scripts/ http://genome-source.cse.ucsc.edu/gitweb/?p=kent.git;a=tree;f=src/product;hb=HEAD http://genome-source.cse.ucsc.edu/gitweb/?p=kent.git;a=tree;f=src/product/scripts;hb=HEAD http://genome-source.cse.ucsc.edu/gitweb/?p=kent.git;a=blob_plain;f=src/product/README.install;hb=HEAD You will load your hgcentral database from either the direct download of the MySQL binary files, or from the SQL text dump of the database. Either way is OK. Adding genbank refers to the download directory /gbdb/genbank/ You will need at least some of that directory. Note the discussion of how to fetch part of that directory in: http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Minimal_Browser_Installation The various Wiki pages can be helpful for your install. However, they are written at different times in the past by users with specific notes about the difficulties they encountered on their particular systems. The most up to date version of instructions can be found in the source treee directory src/product/ as mentioned above. --Hiram joseph hargitai wrote: > Hi, > > I have a few questions regarding a "Direct Sync" installation based on notes: > > http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Browser_Installation > > > a, > hg.conf references the location of the /gbdb directory, however the Direct > Sync installation does not require the download of assembly dumps.
