This is an extensive tutorial to take you through the main features and gotchas of configuring GBrowse as a server. This tutorial assumes that you have successfully set up Perl, GD, BioPerl and the other GBrowse dependencies. If you haven't, please see the GBrowse HOWTO During most of the tutorial, we will be using the "in-memory" GBrowse database (no relational database required!) Later we will show how to set up a genome size database using the berkeleydb and MySQL adaptors.
