[Gmod-help] Databases and chromosome location searches

[Scott Cain]

Hi Nigel,

I suspect there is a problem with your configuration file, as this
should work.  Can you send it?

Also, I'm cc'ing this to the GBrowse mailing list, as there are many
subscribers to that list that have faced all sorts of issues and can
frequently help with questions like this.
