Troubles with OMERO server 4.4.1 installation on Ubuntu LTS

[mcebe]

Hallo,

Sorry that such a greenhorn is trying to install Omero.server. No ther choice. We'd like to use OMERO.

I guess I maneged to pass almost till the end but am not getting configs done.

First, there was no bin/omero directory for changing setting of the config, when I generated it manually, the message after:

$ bin/omero config set omero.db.name 'omero_database'

was

Error, bin/omero is directory.

There are no files in bin/omero directory. I have unpacked the zip file (not tar as mentioned in the guidelines to home/cebecauer/Desktop/OMERO using atool 'aunpack'.

Thanks in advance for your help.

best wishes,
Marek

If you unpacked into /home/cebecauer/Desktop/OMERO then you need to:

Code: Select all

cd /home/cebecauer/Desktop/OMERO
bin/omero config set omero.db.name 'omero_database'
...

Hallo,

Many thanks. It was actually even more complicated since aunpack generated a new folder OMERO.server ...

First two commands went through but I've got stuck on:

$ bin/omero config set omero.db.pass 'db_password'

getting the message $: command not found



Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

best Marek

You need to be in the the OMERO.server directory then. If you're getting stuck at this stage I'd strongly suggest you try to get some help from someone at your institution who has some UNIX experience. That will make things a lot less frustrating for you and you'll have a much better server setup as a result.
