Installation of Starterator Beta version Updates to Starterator are now available. This is currently a beta version that needs further testing prior to general release. The beta version has updates which have solved some of the issues which cause starterator to crash. Please post any problems with installation or subsequent use of the beta or alpha versions of this software to this discussion. Also, if you find new phages that crash this version of starterator, please try the solutions suggested under the topic "Read First: Common Starterator Troubleshooting" of this forum. If those fail to solve the problem, please report the name of the phage under the topic "phage that crash starterator". It is only through reports like these that bugs can be found and squashed. This beta version has many bugfixes and improved graphics. However, to be safe it is recommended that you install the program in the SEAFaculty account. This will keep the original release version available in the SEAStudent account as a back-up should the beta version fail. Here are the instructions for installing and using the beta version of Starterator. Once installed there should be an icon on the Desktop to run Starterator. The basic instructions for installation of the beta version are nearly identical to installation of the initial release version of Starterator. Download and follow the instructions with the following exceptions: http://phagesdb.org/media/docs/Starterator_installation_2015.pdf Change step 1 from: 1. Download the script installStarterator.sh from: http://phamerator.webfactional.com/installStarterator.sh to: 1. Download the script installBetaStarterator.sh from: https://wustl.box.com/v/installBetaStarterator Change step 5 from: 5. After navigating to this folder, run the script by typing, in Terminal: to: 5. After navigating to this folder, run the script by typing, in Terminal: https://wustl.box.com/v/installAlphaStarterator |

If you install your beta version into the SEA Faculty account you should see an icon for starterator on the Desktop. You will need to double click this icon. To double check that you are running the right version you will see the version in the title of the main starterator window if you have the beta or alpha version. In the image the title bar has the version "v1.1.0-beta"  If you do not see the version title you expect please post issues to this forum. |

Hi Chris, I just tried to do new installs of BetaStarterator and failed miserably. The terminal seems to go through removing all the appropriate items, clones stuff, resolves stuff, and switches to a new branch "Beta" lists a few file lines /home/seafaculty/Applications/Starterator/starterator/starterator.sh /home/seafaculty/Applications/Starterator/starterator Already up to date. starterator.sh: line 10: //home/seafaculty/Applications/Starterator/starterator/Starterator: no such file or directory ? lots more errors. IT looks to me like there was an accidental capitalization of the word Starterator in the most sub directory in the script in line 10. Maybe? help… |
