[ome-users] question re bioformats.jar

[Keith.Neil at sanofi-aventis.com]

I have 3 questions regarding OME on OSX 10.4 (intel)

1) we are not able to import any type of images other than TIF, (for
example leica format)

As OME is installed in /OME and is owned by user OME, we have tried putting
the LOCI bioformats.jar in the OME directory, or in Java/lib and neither
seem to change things.  I don't know how to change the classpath of the OME
user, as it doesn't have a home directory, thus a .cshrc etc... to add the
classpath to its environment...

Any hints?

2) we would like to have a Samba mount to a network disk in the OME_images
directory we created in the default user home in OSX.  We can do this on
osx by creating an alias to the samba mount.  Problem is this is not
recognised by the Apache browser.  I imagine we can create a symlink to the
network mount, but I haven't done this osx before...

3) in regards to accessing the images from a browser on a second machine,
the images are refered to by a url pointing to the image file which works
on the host machine, but not on the second machine.  How do you set OME to
use a relative not absolute link to the images?

Thanks for any help.

Keith
