Hi,

Unbelieveably, installing 0.6 under linux is proving more difficult for me than installing under Windows XP!

I am using a fairly old distibution of Redhat linux but neverthesless expect it should be OK. I have Perl 5.8 and have I think installed all dependencies. Installed Apache 2.2.4 and mod_perl 2.0.3 from source as described in the user docs. Apache runs when started with its own default httpd.conf file. I have a registry file that has been used succesfully in my Windows installation.

First problem:

perl  bin/configure.pl -r conf/defaultMartRegistry.xml

Do you want to install in API only mode [y/n] [n]: y

                API configure only checks dependencies for using API
Any additional switches supplied to this script will be ignored


Checking prerequisites ... please install the following modules:


... and that's all - there are no modules given.  This doesn't seem right.


Next problem: If I try stating Apache I get this:


Processing Cached Registry: /usr/local/BioMart-0.6/biomart-perl/conf/cachedRegistries/defaultMartRegistry.xml.cached



and the service doesn't start (no further messages but no process running with the PID in logs/httpd.pid).

How can I get some more detailed error messages??

Thanks,

Matthew
