Please note the example template hg.conf file in the source tree src/product/ex.hg.conf

There should be discussion in there of the options and what you may need.

The hg.conf file goes in the CGI dir e.g. /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin. There are several settings in the hg.conf file to note:

  • db.trackDb can be set to one or multiple trackDb tables. The tables are listed in the order of priority. If the first and second trackDb table both have a row where the tableName is the same, the row from the first table is used. Otherwise the rows of the tables are all added together into one giant trackDb table.
  • If you're mirror, you better comment out the "bottleneck" statements. Otherwise your alignment tracks won't work.
