 Windows</link> 


 * <link linkend="InstT_bad_update">Not all files are updated</link> 


 * <link linkend="InstT_1st_Grp">New Group/User added does not show up in the selection

 * <link linkend="instlT_updatecom">Stage does not move after a pyScope update on the

 h2. Failed pyScope numExtension Window installation through 
 python 





 <title>Why:</title> 
 *    Specially compiled pyScope and numExtension are needed to comunicate with Gatan 
 CCD camera. Currently we only have them compiled for python2.5 


 Solution: Download and use python2.5 and use the window-installer in win-install 
 folder (start by double-clicking them) not "python setup.py install". 









 h2. Incomplete Leginon update 



 This normally happens to files that you have modified in the previous version. 




 <title>Why:</title> 
 *    unknown 


 Solution: Remove the old installation first. 




 *    Find the location of your Leginon installation. Once you have tried,even 
 unsuccessfully, to install Leginon. You can use the following command to find 
 the directory: 



 <pre>Linux> cd 
 Linux> start-leginon.py -v</pre> 
 <pre>Window> Go to \All Programs\Leginon\Leginon Folder from your Start Menu</pre> 



 *    Go to the directory above it. This is normally the site-package directory 
 under your python installation 



 <pre>Linux> rm -r Leginon 
 Window> drag the Leginon folder to Recycle Bin</pre> 



 *    Redo Leginon installation. 













 h2. Installation without a class of nodes 


 If you encounter a problem with node classes that you don't actually use, you may avoid 
 loading the codes with the following modification: 




 *    Fnd the location of your Leginon installation 



 <pre>Linux> cd 
 Linux> start-leginon.py -v</pre> 



 *    go to the subdirectory of noderegistry 



 <pre>Linux/home> cd leginon_directory/noderegistry</pre> 



 *    edit the file "default.ncr" to coment out the registry of the class of nodes that 
 you do not need (Tomography node class in this example): 



 <pre>#[Tomography] 
 #module: tomography 
 #type: Pipeline 
 #package: tomography</pre> 










 h2. SciPy Installation failed in SuSE 



 SciPy may not build properly on some versions of SuSE due to an incompatible LAPACK 
 package that comes with SuSE. You can get scipy as well as a compatible LAPACK etc. from 
 http://repos.opensuse.org/science (need to specify your SuSE version and machine etc. 





 h2. Display errors on webviewer and web 
 administration tools 



 To display error and report them to get help for the php, including mysql-php and mrc 
 extension, do the following: 


 *    Find your php.ini the following parameters and change them accordingly: 



 <pre>display_errors = On 
 error_reporting    =    E_ALL &amp; ~E_NOTICE</pre> 



 *    Restart your apache server 



 <pre>> /etc/init.d/apache2 restart</pre> 



 *    From your webbrowser, refresh the problematic page. If you don't know what to do 
 with it, report it when you ask for help.
