Hi Jason,

I agree that something strange is happening at about the point when
it's trying to draw the overview, but I don't know what that something
is.  When I tried to look at the yeast database to see if it was
working, it looked like the attached picture.  Note that the images
for the zoom and pan buttons are missing.  I think there is a
misconfiguration somewhere.  Where any directories moved or apache
configuration file changes made?

Scott
