[mart-dev] List based Filters not being displayed

[allank]

Hi all,
I have been having a problem having filters created as lists created in 
marteditor not been displayed in Biomart 0.6.
Am using Biomart 0.6 and Martj-0.6 (latest release obtained directly 
from CVS each day I've attempted to solve this puzzle) and PostgreSQL 8.1.4.
This is how I am creating the filters in a rather conservative way, let 
me explain. In marteditor, I copy a list filter that works (gets 
displayed just fine in Biomart) whose field in the DB is of the same 
type as that of the field on which I am creating the new list based 
filter on, I modify the name and the field name of the copied and now 
pasted control, next I select 'clear option' in it's context menu, then 
after I select 'make drop down' from the context menu. The control get's 
correctly populated with options which are based on unique data values 
of the underlying field and all seems well. I then export the entire 
configuration. I kill biomart process the recommended way, I 'cd' into 
the Biomart perl directory and run 'perl bin/configure.pl --clean -r 
conf/biomart3___postgresql.xml;' command, then I start biomart. Going to 
my webbrower, I click on new on the main menu, I select the dataset and 
so on till I get to select the 'filters' the new filter does not appear. 
What should I do?

Please advise.

Allan.
