Dear Vanessa

 

Our IT staff is helping me install liftOver. He followed the instructions you 
provided and is still having a question below:

 

"I followed the directions here:

 

http://genome.ucsc.edu/admin/git.html

 

Which put everything in the "kent" directory in your home directory.

 

Now I'm following the README file in kent/src (I set MACHTYPE to x86_64).

Step 7 says "Go to the application you want to make and type make".

 

What application in kent/src has liftOver?"

 

Can you point me to the right directory?

 

Thanks

 

-Jianchao

Hi, Pauline

 

Thanks for getting back to me. I tried to add the directory of liftOver to my 
PATH but still got an error message:

 

>liftOver: /lib64/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required 

>by liftOver)

 

Our IT just told me that 

 

"GLIBC is a library which is an inherent part of the Linux kernel on all the 
HPCC nodes. It cannot be updated without a massive Linux upgrade of the entire 
cluster, which would break lots of installed software. That is not practical. 
Basically, we will need to upgrade by replacing the HPCC with a new system (we 
are trying to find funding).

 

This code was built/compiled for a newer Linux than the one we have, which is:

 

[r...@blade169 ~]# uname -r

2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp"

 

They suggested me to get the source code for liftOver to use the GLIBC we have. 

 

Could you help me on this? Thanks a lot!

 

-Jianchao

Hello Jianchao,

 

The error indicates that bash is not able to locate the liftOver program.  You 
can either add the location of liftOver to your bash PATH environment variable, 
or you can specify the path when you run it.  If you are in the directory where 
liftOver resides, type:

 

./liftOver

 

 

Hopefully this information was helpful and answers your question. If you have 
further questions or require clarification feel free to contact the mailing 
list at [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> .

 

Regards,
