Has anyone had any experience configuring BLAT to Web Apollo?
Web Apollo uses BLAT as a sequence search tool, however although my BLAT binary seems to be working when I perform a search locally, when I try and use the feature on Web Apollo it doesn't seem to be connecting.
I'm on a Linux Mint 17.3 OS, and am very new to this (it's for my final year undergrad project)
Wondering if anyone has any experience in this and can impart their wisdom please?
Thank you

I can't find a blat_config.xml file (odd in itself - when I use the find command it points to ./config/enchant and ./.cache/dconf but permission is denied to these folders. I then enter them in SU and the file does not show, even using ls -a), but the variables for BLAT in the Config.groovy file reads as the 2013 tutorial suggests it should...
You should go ahead and make the file (with settings appropriate for your system) in the location suggested
$TOMCAT_WEBAPPS_DIR/WebApollo/config/blat_config.xmlThank you for your help, but I seem to have sorted it! It was a permissions issue - Tomcat couldn't access the files... so many things to consider in LINUX!
