getting cyRest up and running

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hi,

I'm looking to use cyRest with R (and potentially with python), but am having trouble getting past the installation. From the wiki page: https://github.com/idekerlab/cyREST/wiki/Installation-Guide I get to the section "Test your installation", but am not able to get any status message. I have even tried changing the port number via Cytoscape. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot? Thanks!

Specs:
Cytoscape 3.2.1
cyREST 1.1.0
java version 1.7.0_71
running Linux Fedora 19

Hi.

You need to install latest version of Java 8 to run this application, and make sure your $JAVA_HOME is set to the Java 8 home directory.

If you still have problems, please let me know.

Excellent! Java 8 did it! Thanks!
