\r
57 <ul> <li>Download <a href="http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/jabaws/archive/jabaws-vm.zip">JABAWS Virtual Appliance</a> (520M) </li>
\r
59 <p>The Virtual Appliance (VA) package allows you to run a JABAWS server installed on TurnKey Linux as a virtual machine on your laptop or desktop computer. A <a href="man_servervm.html#whenvm">complete guide to the JABAWS VA</a> is given in the manual, but for the impatient, a brief instructions are given below:
\r
61 <p>If you work on Windows, Linux or Unix </p>
\r
63 <li>download and install <a href="http://www.vmware.com/products/player">VMWare Player</a>.</li>
\r
64 <li>Unpack the JABAWS virtual appliance and open it with VMware Player.</li>
\r
66 <p>If you use a Mac, or prefer not to use VMWare, then :</p>
\r
68 <li>download and install <a href="http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_3_2">Virtual Box</a>.</li>
\r
69 <li>Unpack the JABAWS virtual appliance, import it into VirtualBox and then start the appliance. </li>
\r
71 <div id="testing_jabaws">
\r
73 <p>The easiest way to test that your JABAWS Virtual appliance is working is to use Jalview.</p>
\r
75 <li>Launch the desktop version of <a href="http://www.jalview.org/download.html">Jalview</a></li>
\r
76 <li>Open the Jalview desktop's preferences panel (from the Tools->Preferences menu option), select the <span class="hightlight">Webservices</span> panel and press the <span class="hightlight">New Service URL</span> button.</li>
\r
77 <li>Enter the JABAWS URL for your new server. This is shown once the appliance is booted up.</li>
