Genetic map viewer

[ramesh.8v]

Dear Friends,
I spent one complete week in installation of CMap in my Ubuntu system. Installation is successful, but, i couldn't able to open the maps. Clicking on maps resulting in "The requested URL /cmap/cgi-bin/cmap/viewer was not found on this server". I searched lot online and ended in vain after attempting all those tactics, i completely fed up this tool. After long a search i got Cview, but, my apache server is not compatible with this tool. Please refer me optimum tool to show markers on chromosomes for my database or help me to sort problems with CMap tool. Not only in CMap, i hope people also face same problem in Gbrowse. Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,

try Strudel -- http://bioinf.hutton.ac.uk/strudel/. It's easy to install as it comes with prebuilt installers for all major platforms. It uses its own data format, which will cost you a little bit of time at the start, but you can put together a datafile in a spreadsheet prgram fairly quickly, or write some code that outputs it it for you.

cheers
