Setting Up OMEROImporter

1. Download the OmeroImporter_TestPack

To the machine you want to upload through.

Make sure it’s in the home directory.

2. Place the different features in the correct directories

OMERO_IMPORT_FOLDER and OMERO_IMPORT_DONE should be located in the places where the users will be uploading from in the future.

OmeroImporter.cfg should go in a folder called OmeroImporter in the user’s home directory — make sure it has the correct paths, passwords, etc.

You can unzip the W-IDM_OmeroDataImporter inside that folder as well.

3. Test the setup manually

Note: make sure Java is installed on the machine (it has to be a newer version of Java i.e.

Since it’s a jar executable, you can run the file manually with the -cfg option to test the sample upload with the new setup using this command:

java -jar [PATH-TO-JAR] -cfg

4. Edit the paths in the config file

To the folders that the users will actually use now that the test is done.

5. Clean up
