OMERO.web using mod_python on Mac OS X 10.6.4
Posted: Tue Aug 24, 2010 1:08 amHi -
I've succeeded getting OMERO.server 4.2.0 running on a Mac running Server version of 10.6.4 but cannot quite get the OMERO.web to cooperate. I have followed the excellent instructions from Janek Claus/Kenneth Arcieri to compile all the pieces from source to try and avoid the 32 vs 64 bit problem.
After getting all the dependencies and installing them, I can start the server just fine (bin/omero admin start)
but following a hybrid of the the directions from http://www.openmicroscopy.org.uk/site/support/omero4/server/install_web and the OMERO.web section of the previously mentioned guide, I ran into trouble at the very end when trying to load the webadmin page.
I get the folloiwng error:
I know there is probably some simple thing I have done to get this wrong. Can somebody point me in the right direction? I am concerned about the library not found in /opt/Ice ? I compiled and installed Ice in the /Library/Ice directory with no mention of /opt/Ice.
Also I was a bit confused about the ownership of the log and database directories required for the mod_python version of the web server. I created the /omero_dist/var/lib and omero_dist/var/log/weblog directories and assigned them apache user and group ownership as per the instructions. But then when I try to run "bin/omero admin diagnostics" omero complains that it can't find "var/lib" a required file - presumably because it is now owned by the apache user and group and not writable/readable by the omero user. Could someone clarify the location and ownership of these files required by the OMERO.web?
I also quote the output of the diagnostics for more information.
and here is the section of the httpd.conf file that I modified:
Thanks for your help
