ScrumPy Metabolic Modelling Software

There are two options for installing ScrumPy:

  1. If you are running a Linux operating system, such as Debian (7.0 or later) or Ubuntu (12.04 or later) go to ScrumPy, download the installation files and follow the instructions. Then jump to Getting started.

  2. For all other operating systems, ScrumPy can be run as a virtual machine on your computer, provided you have about 7GB of free disk space. In order to do this you will first need to install virtualbox. For linux or mac we reccomend installing virtualbox from your standard repository (aka "App store"). Windows users can find it on the virtualbox website. Install VirtualBox, then follow the instructions below. If you use Windows, defragmenting your disk before proceeding will improve subsequent performance, though it's not essential.

Installing the ScrumPy virtual machine

  1. Either copy the large (2.4GB) ScrumPy.ova file from the DVD or USB drive provided or patiently download it from our webserver.

  2. Start VirtualBox on your computer. Select Import appliance from the File menu and choose the the !Wheezy_ScrumPy.ova file. Wait several minutes whilst this configures.

  3. !Wheezy_ScrumPy will appear on the VirtualBox Manager window. Select it and run it.

  4. If virtual box produces an error message at this point, you need to enable virtualisation in your machine's BIOS. Ask one of the demonstrators if this is the case.

  5. Wait whilst Linux starts up. At the login screen, give your user name as scrumpy and password as SCRUMPY

Note

The virtual machine come with an ordinary root account (not sudo). The default password for this account is also SCRUMPY. Obviously these are extremely insecure, so having logged in for the first time it is important that you change both these passwords, especially if you use the machine on an institutional network.

Changing Passwords
