Dear Nate,

Sorry for a lot of questions. To set up virtualenv, should I enter the root folder of "galaxy-dist" and run the commands for steps "a", "b" and "c"?

For step "b",
I only need to run "python virtualenv.py --no-site-packages galaxy_env
" from root folder of "galaxy-dist"(don't need to run "/usr/bin/python2.6 virtualenv.py --no-site-packages galaxy_env"), is it right?

You mentioned I need to run command from "/home/kangtu/data/tools"

/home/kangtu/Downloads/Galaxy-dist --> /home/kangtu/data/tools/galaxy-dist/

By the way, I found a folder called "galaxy_env" from root folder of "galaxy-dist" form the both folder, they are same (date, time, and size ), can I run step "b" directly from "/home/kangtu/Downloads/Galaxy-dist"?
drwxr-xr-x  5 kangtu admin 36864 2011-01-24 01:49 galaxy_env

For step "c",
is there a space in the beginning? I plan to run it from folder of "galaxy-dist"
". ./galaxy_env/bin/activate" or "../galaxy_env/bin/activate"

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best Wishes,

Yan

Dear Nate,

Thanks for your quick response, my colleagues of a small group are waiting for using galaxy, so it is better if we can restart it asap.

1. If I try to set up a virtualenv, do I need to recompile "bx-python"? I am not familiar with "Python", if we need to do it, could you please let me know how to do it step by step?

2. I checked your instruction you mentioned, will I follow the following steps (a, b, and c)? If it is, I will try immediately.

Okay, this should be fine.

You would need to recompile whatever depends on numpy, which in this
case is bx-python.  However, we provide our own version of numpy 1.3.
The reason that version is not being used is due to a bug in our
dependency management code which was just fixed.

There are two ways to solve this problem.  The first would be to set up
a virtualenv as suggested in my last email.

The second would be to pull our in-development code, but be aware that
this has undergone very little testing at this point.  You can pull the
most recent changes with:

 % hg pull -u http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/
