[ome-users] Omero Beta 4 installation problems

[Zoltan Cseresnyes]

Dear List members,

I would like to use the OME list to thank Chris Roome for his excellent help
in troubleshooting my Omero4 installation process on Linux (SLES10 SP2).
With his help I'm now successfully running the server.  I contacted him
directly off-line last week, because his original problem posted earlier in
this thread was similar to mine at the time.
  Excellent list indeed!  Thanks to all those who help us building these
apps and dealing with our problems!
  Best regards,

Zoltan
