Installing prerequisites - libpng, zlib, libgd, etc
JBrowse requires a few fundamental prerequisites that it cannot install itself: these are libpng, zlib, libgd, make, a C compiler, and a C++ compiler.
Linux - Ubuntu / Debian
These commands, or similar, should install what you need:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libpng-dev zlib1g-dev libgd2-xpm-dev
Linux - Red Hat / Fedora / CentOS
These commands, or similar, should install what you need:
sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools" sudo yum install libpng-devel gd-devel zlib-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker
Mac OS X
Use MacPorts, Fink, Homebrew, or another package manager to install a C++ compiler, libpng development headers, GD development headers, and Zlib development headers.
Other Problems
setup.sh creates a log file of debugging information associated with your installation. Email this entire file (as an attachment please, not in the email body) to gmod-ajax@lists.sourceforge.net with a request for support.
As more users try setup.sh and report problems to the mailing list, this wiki will be updated with fixes for common problems they encounter.
