BioBike

 

So, also today, I managed to, with the help of one of the original developers of the system, get the BioBike server up and running on pipe1.

 

Now, installing it was somewhat tough for me, being the Unix noob that I am. Rob gave me a link to a .txt file, install-steps.txt, which led me through the process. I also had to install Allegro Lisp, and Emacs, in order for this to go smoothly. As it turns out, if you follow the install-steps.txt, everything will go just fine, with only one wrinkle. You have to go to /home/biobike/config.lisp and change one line…

(setq *VPL-VERSION* 1)

change it to

(setq *VPL-VERSION* 2)

YOU MUST DO THIS BEFORE YOU START UP LISP AND ENTER

(force-all)
(setq cl-user::*biowebserver* nil)

(load “/home/biobike/BioLisp/blload.lisp”)

If you do this, it will all compile and load properly! TA DA!
