Hello Mingyi,<br>
<br>
Indeed the VM is intended to assist users in rapidly using the API,
users who might be running Windows or not want to install the API
locally, the VM lets them prototype or rapidly start using the API
with minimal effort. As you've discovered it's not intended to be a
local Ensembl mirror, it's a client side installation.<br>
<br>
Installing a mirror is actually even easier than setting up the API,
dumps of all the Ensembl databases are available on our ftp site at
<a href="ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/current_mysql/" target="_blank">ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/current_mysql/</a> And instructions for
loading them in to a local MySQL instance are available at
<a href="http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/webcode/mirror/install/ensembl-data.html" target="_blank">http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/webcode/mirror/install/ensembl-data.html</a>
Once that's done, all you need to do is point the Registry at your
local instance rather than one of the public mirrors, and voila, you
have your own mirror of an Ensembl release.<br>
<br>
If you have any other questions don't hesitate to drop us another
message.<br>

confirm my question below? Are the Ensembl VMs only for
Ensembl API + Ensembl’s own MySQL access, or the VM has
everything needed for in-house Ensembl installation (one
just need to change some parameters to point to in-house
MySQL etc)? If the latter that’d be fantastic, but so far it
doesn’t look like the case.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1f497d">I downloaded Ensembl VMs in the hope
that this is an easy way to set up Ensembl in-house (once
MySQL data are all downloaded/imported). However it seems
that the VM doesn’t have webserver and is only meant to be
used for running scripts that utilize Ensembl API? Is that
correct? I’m a bit confused as I thought one doesn’t need a
VM to run scripts using Ensembl API, just need to download
Ensembl/Bioperl and install dependency. So the VM is mostly
for saving efforts installing dependency?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
