Installing Proteome Discoverer

This guide describes how to install the Proteome Discoverer 1.3 software.

Opening the XInstall WindowBefore you can access the Proteome Discoverer InstallShield wizard, which installs the software, open the XInstall window.

To open the XInstall window

1. Log on to the computer as an administrator.

If you are installing the software, you must be a software administrator.

2. Verify that you are an administrator by choosing Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administration Tools > Computer Management > Local Users and Groups > Groups > Administrators (this path is different on Windows 7 systems). In the Administrators Properties window, verify that you are a member of the administrators, or have an administrator install the software.

3. Insert the Proteome Discoverer software DVD into the PC.

If the auto-play is set for the DVD drive, the XInstall installation window appears automatically, as shown in Figure 1.

If this window does not appear, use Windows Explorer to open the installation file. In the Windows Explorer window, select the appropriate DVD drive and double-click the XInstall_ProteomeDiscoverer.exe file.

Migrating Personalized Application Data Profiles from Installations Prior to Proteome Discoverer 1.2

With versions of the Proteome Discoverer application prior to 1.2, you could install the application for either “All Users” or only the current user. In the latter case, the application data (FASTA files, indexes, workflow templates, and so on) are stored in a personalized application data profile. When upgrading from a previous version, the Proteome Discoverer 1.3 installer is not able to migrate such personalized application data profiles automatically because the 1.3 installer only looks at the “All Users” profile.

If the installer finds such personalized application data profiles, it displays a screen that lists the found profiles with information about how to migrate them (see Figure 2).

To retain an existing personalized application data profile

• Copy the application data folder from the specified location to the “All Users” profile folder.

The installation wizard provides the directory information (see Figure 2).

The actual paths of the user profiles depend on the version and language of the Windows operating system. The installation wizard should show you the user profile paths valid for your system.

Connecting to the Mascot Server

This chapter describes Mascot server versions supported by the Proteome Discoverer software and how to check your Mascot server settings, connect to the Mascot server, and test the connection to the Mascot server.

Mascot Server Versions SupportedThe Mascot server versions that the Proteome Discoverer software supports are as follows:

• Mascot Server 2.1

– Mascot servers running version 2.1 should be usable, but retrieving the result files (protein sequences) from the servers can be a lengthy process, as you can only retrieve the protein sequences one by one.

– Mascot servers running version 2.1 should have all available updates, patches, or both from Matrix Science installed. In particular, you must install a patch that enables MIME format for the result files. Otherwise, the Proteome Discoverer software is not able to receive the search results from the Mascot server.

• Mascot Server 2.2

– Proteome Discoverer 1.3 does not support error tolerant searches.

• Mascot Server 2.3

– Proteome Discoverer 1.3 does not support error tolerant searches and searches against a multiple sequence database.

Contents

• Mascot Server Versions Supported

• Checking Your Mascot Server Settings

• Configuring Mascot

• Testing the Connection to the Mascot Server

Page 52: Xcalibur Proteome Discoverer - Thermo Fisher Scientifictools.thermofisher.com/content/sfs/...Discoverer-13-IIXCALI97359-A-… · Preface # Proteome Discoverer Installation Guide Thermo

4 Connecting to the Mascot ServerChecking Your Mascot Server Settings

44 Proteome Discoverer Installation Guide Thermo Scientific

Checking Your Mascot Server SettingsBefore you connect to your Mascot server, verify that the URL of the Mascot server is valid, and determine what type of security protects your Mascot server.

Checking the URL

Check the Mascot server URL to be used in the Proteome Discoverer configuration by typing it into a Web browser. If the URL is correct, the Mascot home page appears.

The URL of the Mascot server has the following general form:

http://my.mascotserver.com/mascot/

If your Mascot server is not running on the standard port 80, you must include the actual port number:

http://my.mascotserver.com:xxxx/mascot/

The Mascot server URL to be used in the Proteome Discoverer configuration does not include /cgi or /home.html or similar notation.

The following are examples of invalid URLs:

http://my.mascotserver.com/mascot/cgi

http://my.mascotserver.com/mascot/home.html

The following are examples of valid URLs:

http://my.mascotserver.com/mascot/

http://192.168.2.1/mascot/

http://my.mascotserver.com:8765/mascot/

Checking for Security Options

Check to see if your Mascot server is protected by security options and if so, by what type.

If you are required to log on to the Mascot server or to log on through the Mascot Security page, shown in Figure 43, your Mascot server is protected by Mascot security. For information on accessing the Mascot server protected by this type of security, see “To configure Mascot when your Mascot server is protected by Mascot security” on page 47.

Page 53: Xcalibur Proteome Discoverer - Thermo Fisher Scientifictools.thermofisher.com/content/sfs/...Discoverer-13-IIXCALI97359-A-… · Preface # Proteome Discoverer Installation Guide Thermo

4 Connecting to the Mascot ServerConfiguring Mascot

Thermo Scientific Proteome Discoverer Installation Guide 45

Figure 43. Mascot Security page

If you must log in through any other means, your Mascot server is likely protected by the security options of the Web server that Mascot is running on. For information on accessing the Mascot server protected by this type of security, see “To configure Mascot when your Mascot server is protected by Windows or Web-based security” on page 47.

If you do not known which kind of security is enabled for your Mascot server, contact your local system administrator.

Configuring MascotYou can configure Mascot in the Proteome Discoverer application by using any of the following three methods:

• Enter the Mascot server URL into the Configuration view.

• If your Mascot server is protected by Mascot security, use the values in the Mascot Server Authentication area of the Configuration view. The Proteome Discoverer application uses these values to connect to the Mascot server. Make sure that you have the appropriate access rights to the Mascot server. These access rights are directly configured on the Mascot server. If you need help in obtaining these access rights, contact your system administrator.

Page 54: Xcalibur Proteome Discoverer - Thermo Fisher Scientifictools.thermofisher.com/content/sfs/...Discoverer-13-IIXCALI97359-A-… · Preface # Proteome Discoverer Installation Guide Thermo

4 Connecting to the Mascot ServerConfiguring Mascot

46 Proteome Discoverer Installation Guide Thermo Scientific

• If your Mascot server is protected by Web-based security, use the values in the Web Server Authentication area of the Configuration view. The Proteome Discoverer application uses these values to connect to the Mascot server. Make sure that you have the appropriate access rights to the Mascot server. These access rights are directly configured on the Mascot server. If you need help in obtaining these access rights, contact your system administrator.

The following procedures detail these three methods.

To configure Mascot through URL verification

1. Open the Proteome Discoverer application.

2. Choose Administration > Configuration > Mascot.

3. In the Mascot Server URL box in the Mascot Server area of the Configuration view, enter the URL of the Mascot server, as shown in Figure 44.
