I have deployed UMLs similarity in apache using the instructions in the README located in
$perlpath\cpan\build\UMLS-Similarity-1.21-HrzcSr\web The first question is about rditing the umls_similarity_server.pl as per the readme instructions. Question 1: After I installed UMLS-Similarity and Interface I have multiple copies of that file inside my perl folder one is in blib\script\umls_similarity_server.pl second one is in utils and third one is in bin Do I have to make the changes requested in the README in all the 3 files? Question 2: I went to http://localhost/cgi-bin/umls_similarity/umls_similarity.cgi I entered Term 1 and Term 2 and clicked compute similarity , I got nothing. when I clicked view errors I get this Warnings/Errors: Error: received strange message from server ` ' Error: received strange message from server ` ' Error: received strange message from server ` ' Error: received strange message from server ` ' Error: received strange message from server ` My user to the DB is root and my password is "xxx". Could that be the issue? FYI: Running UMLS similarity from command prompt works fine Here is how I am running it: C:\Strawberry\perl\site\bin>perl umls-similarity.pl --username=root --password=xxx --database=umls fever temperature
