h1. Start with existing CentOS 5.3 64-bit installation
{{>toc}}
h2. 3 Download additional software
h3. 3.1 Install the additional package repositories
*NOTE*
There are several additional CentOS repositories that you can install.
These repositories provide additional packages, such as patented software (MP3 players),
closed source applications (Flash plugin, Adobe Acrobat Reader)
and lesser used packages (python numpy, Gnu Scientific Library).
But some repositories install packages over other packages,
which can cause problems and conflicts (ATrpms is bad at this). So I recommend only installing
EPEL and RPM Fusion. Read more here:
"CentOS Additional Repositories":http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories
h4. 3.1.1 Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL)
* http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL
* contains a wealth of packages required for appion
.Download repository rpm and install
<pre>
$ sudo rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/`uname -i`/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
</pre>
h4. 3.1.2 RPM Fusion
* http://rpmfusion.org/
* good for mp3 and other patent limited software
.Download repository rpms and install
<pre>
$ sudo rpm -Uhv http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/5/`uname -i`/rpmfusion-free-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm
$ sudo rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/testing/5/`uname -i`/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm
</pre>
h3. 3.2 Update current packages
.Update the updater to make life easier
<pre>
$ sudo yum -y update yum
</pre>
.Update all packages
<pre>
$ sudo yum -y update
</pre>
*NOTE*
Download was over 129 MB (in July 2009). If you have a slow internet connection you can setup presto/deltarpms, "see this email]":http://www.linux-archive.org/centos-development/222706-presto-deltarpm.html
You may want to restart your computer when this completes.
h4. .Install Complete list of additional packages:
* *python tools*: python-tools python-devel
* *general applications*: subversion ImageMagick grace gnuplot python-matplotlib
* *Tilt Picker*: wxPython numpy scipy python-imaging
* *FindEM*: gcc-gfortran compat-gcc-34-g77

h2. 4 MRC PHP Extension Installation and Testing
h3. 4.1 Build the MRC module
Download "php_mrc_src_1_5_1.tgz":http://emg.nysbc.org/software/dwd.php?id=N1HDb4ac22efb5b38b05fd3575d42d3e4adc2
h4. cd to your php devel directory
<pre>
> cd /usr/include/php/ext/
> mv [downloads]/php_mrc_src_1_5_1.tgz .
</pre>
h4. Untar the archive
<pre>
> tar zxvf php_mrc_src_1_5_1.tgz
> cd mrc/
</pre>
h4. Make sure that GD and FFTW 3 devel libraries are installed
<pre>
> phpize
> ./configure
> make
> make install
</pre>
h3. 4.2 Install MRC module
h4. Check that mrc.so is in your php extension directory
<pre>
> ls /usr/lib/php/extensions
</pre>
You should see mrc.so listed.
h4. Make sure that GD and FFTW 3 libraries are installed
* edit your php configuration file php.ini to add "mrc.so" extension.
* You might also increase the memory_limit field. It is set to 8M by default. The more the merrier!
* 4kx4k float MRC image is about 64MB
<pre>
> vi /etc/php.ini
</pre>
* increase memory
<pre>
> memory_limit = 256M; Maximum amount of memory
</pre>
* Create the mrc.ini file
<pre>
> cd /etc/php.d
vi mrc.ini
</pre>
* add the following lines
<pre>
; Enable mrc extension module
extension=mrc.so
</pre>
*NOTE:* If PHP modules are already listed in PHP.ini do the following:
* check extension_dir value
<pre>
extension_dir = /usr/lib64/php/extensions
</pre>
* add the following at the end of the [extension section]
<pre>
extension=mrc.so
</pre>
h4. Restart your webserver
<pre>
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
</pre>
OR
<pre>
/etc/init.d/httpd restart
</pre>
h3. 4.3 Test the MRC module installation
Download this MRC file "mymrc.mrc":http://emg.nysbc.org/attachments/55/mymrc.mrc and the following 2 scripts into the same directory to test the PHP mrc extension.
* gd module testing script "ex1.php":http://emg.nysbc.org/attachments/53/ex1.php
* fftw module testing script "ex2.php":http://emg.nysbc.org/attachments/54/ex2.php
Run the scripts with the following commands:
The expected results are shown below. If you get the same images, you've installed the extension properly.
<pre>
> php -q ex1.php | display
</pre>
* gd module test result:
!http://emg.nysbc.org/attachments/57/ex1.php.png!
<pre>
> php -q ex2.php | display
</pre>
* fftw module test result:

h2. 5 Setup MySQL (appiondata) databases
[[Setup MySQL database]]
----
h2. 6 Compile and setup Appion python programs
Download Myami.
*TODO: Place link to file here!*
Install leginon http://emg.nysbc.org/documentation/leginon/bk02ch04s06.php
h3. Perform system check:
In addition to the downloads from our svn depository, there are several other requirements that you will get either from your OS installation source, or from its respective website. The system check in the Leginon package checks your system to see if you already have these requirements
cd your_download_area/Leginon-1.6-ALL/Leginon
python syscheck.py
If python is not installed, this, of course will not run. If you see any lines like "*** Failed...", then you have something missing. Otherwise, everything should result in "OK".
h3. Install the package in each folder with commands like these
*TODO: move these into a single installer, ask Jim*
cd /your_download_area/myami/leginon
python setup.py install
cd ../pyami
python setup.py install
cd ../pyScope
python setup.py install
cd ../sinedon
python setup.py install
cd ../numextension
python setup.py install
cd ../libcv
python setup.py install
cd ../imageviewer
python setup.py install
h3. python-site-package-path: where the installed python packages went:
Python installer put the packages you installed to its site-packages directory. This enable all users on the same computer to access them. The easiest way to find where your installed package is called by python is to load a module from the package using interactive python command lines like this:
* Start python command line from shell
> python
* Import a module from the package. Let's try sinedon here. All packages installed through the above setup.py script should go to the same place.
python> import sinedon
* If the module is loaded successfully, call the module attribute __path__ (two underscrolls before "path" and two underscrolls after) will return the location of the module it is loaded from
python> sinedon.__path__
RETURNS, For example,
python> <module 'sinedon' from '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sinedon/__init__.pyc'>
In this case, /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ is your python-site-package-path. If you go to that directory, you will find all the packages you just installed.
h3. Configure leginon.cfg:
A skeleton (default) configuration file is available:
[python-site-package-path]/Leginon/config/default.cfg
* Copy default.cfg to leginon.cfg.
cp [python-site-package-path]/Leginon/config/default.cfg [python-site-package-path]/Leginon/config/leginon.cfg
* Add a directory for images. The rest is optional.
Example of the configuration that you should set: (Here we assume your leginon database is named "dbemdata", and Leginon log into the database as a user named "usr_object" with no password set).
[Images]
path: your_storage_disk_path/leginon
h3. Names used in the example installation
From this point on, you will need to enter database user names for different configuration files and settings. These are NOT Leginon user names but what is required by MySQL database interaction. Consistent names are essential. In the example shown here, the leginon database is called "dbemdata", the project database is called "projectdata". The MySQL user name are the same, "usr_object", and in this case without a password.
h3. Configure sinedon.cfg:
*TODO: Consider moving this after we setup Mysql username.*
Sinedon is designed to be able to interact with multiple databases. It can be configured at global or user level.
* An example configuration file is available at:
/your_download_area/Leginon-1.6-ALL/sinedon/examples/sinedon.cfg
* Configurations for all users should be placed at the following path:
[python-site-package-path]/sinedon/sinedon.cfg
* Modify host,db,user,passwd to what is used. Note that the user here is the MySQL user Leginon uses to communicate with the database for all Leginon users. For Leginon that uses Project database, set the following:
[global]
host: your_database_host
user: usr_object
passwd:
[projectdata]
db: projectdata
[leginondata]
db: dbemdata
* Add database configuration if you intend to use grid-inserting robot. The Robot2 module uses the database to communicate to the robot. Applications that carries the name "Robot" requires this to be set. In general, using the same database as the general leginon database is fine.
[robot2]
db: dbemdata
h3. 5.1 Compile FindEM
* Goto appion/findem folder to make findem.exe
* Compile the libraries and binary
<pre>
$ make
</pre>
* Test findem.exe to see if it runs
<pre>
$ make test
</pre>
*WARNING*
Only if the first part fails, you must add the path to libg2c.so library file.
Otherwise skip to next section.
* locate libg2c.so library file
<pre>
$ ls /usr/lib/gcc/`uname -i`-redhat-linux/3.4.6/libg2c.so
</pre>
<pre>
$ locate libg2c.so
</pre>
* Edit Makefile with location of libg2c.so
<pre>
$ nano Makefile
</pre>
* Example: EXLIBS=-L/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.6/ -lg2c
* Re-compile
h3. 5.2 Compile Ace2
The 64 bit Ace2 binary is already available in the myami/bin directory.
Test it by changing directories to myami/bin and type the following commands:
<pre>
$ ./ace2.exe -h
$ ./ace2correct.exe -h
</pre>
Notice the help display.
<pre>
If this does not work or you wish to compile it yourself follow the instructions here.
NOTE:
ace2 typically requires fftw 3.2 or greater. This is significantly faster than 3.1 (which is distributed with CentOS).
There is a FFTW_WISDOM_ONLY flag in Image.m that can be commented in if you are using fftw 3.2 or greater.
*TODO: Can we have the make file detect which version is installed?*
* Goto myami/appion/ace2
* compile the libraries and binary
* test to see if program runs
$ make
$ ./ace2.exe -h
$ ./ace2correct.exe -h
$ mv -v ./ace2*.exe ../bin
</pre>
h3. 5.3 Compile Radermacher module
* Goto appion/radermacher
* compile the libraries and binary
<pre>
$ python ./setup.py build
</pre>
* install module globally
<pre>
$ sudo python ./setup.py install
</pre>
* test installed module
<pre>
$ python
</pre>
<pre>
>>> import radermacher
>>> <Ctrl-D>
</pre>
h3. 5.4 Test Appion
* Go into the appion directory
* Add myami to PYTHONPATH if myami is built locally (in home directory)
*TODO: what does this mean?*
<pre>
$ export PYTHONPATH="/your-complete-path-to-myami:$PYTHONPATH"
</pre>
* Add appion to PYTHONPATH
<pre>
$ export PYTHONPATH="/your-complete-path-to-myami/appion:$PYTHONPATH"
</pre>
*TODO: Consider moving appionlib so you only need to set one path.*
* Run the test script
<pre>
$ ./check.sh
</pre>
*NOTE*
You can ignore EMAN, MATLAB, and UCSF Chimera errors at this point

h2. 9 Install a PBS job submission system
You'll need to install a "Portable Batch System":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Batch_System for job submission, such as "TORQUE":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TORQUE_Resource_Manager . I know Torque comes with Fedora 10, but not CentOS.
* An RPM is available in the EPEL testing section
<pre>
$ sudo yum -y --enablerepo=epel-testing install torque
</pre>
or another way to get packages
<pre>
$ wget http://centos.karan.org/el5/extras/testing/`uname -i`/RPMS/torque-2.1.9-1.el5.kb.`uname -i`.rpm
$ sudo yum -y localinstall --nogpgcheck torque-2.1.9-1.el5.kb.`uname -i`.rpm
$ #sudo rpm -Uhv torque-2.1.9-1.el5.kb.`uname -i`.rpm
</pre>
After installing torque it needs to be configured. Sorry, we have no documentation for configuring torque at this time. You may try http://www.clusterresources.com/products/torque-resource-manager.php
