There was an error on the socket connection. the two programs could not talk. We did a lot of trial and errors for this and found that all we had to do was add the -lisp and the -api to the end of the startup command in /etc/init.d/pathway and that worked!!! there is no need in the 8 and above versions to start or run a server-socket.lisp for this. None whatsoever! here is the test code to see if it is working: perl -Mperlcyc -e '$c=perlcyc->new("yeast");@a=$c->all_pathways("")' no errors then it works. it might fail and say connection error line 31. Then that means the lisp and api are not running. apache 26587 26586 0 Oct18 pts/0 00:00:17 /usr/local/pathway-tools/aic-export/pathway-tools/ptools/15.0//exe/pathway-tools-runtime -- -exe-quiet -patch -go -www -no-blast -patch -org yeast -gene-link-db SGD -lisp -api this is how it looks with the -lisp and -api flags
