Several parts of the code check for a password.txt file that is supposed to be in cda-generator. Such a file does not come with cloning the git repository, and I see that is in fact listed in the gitignore file. Is there a way to generate, or copy-paste the file onto one's local machine? It doesn't seem one can properly install the generator without it.

Hello,

I tried to install these codes followed the instruction from http://www.portavitabenchmark.com/installation.html

But I never could get it worked out. It's likely some files are missing or some files are not updated.
I set up CentOS6 on my virtualbox.

1rst try:

Exactly follow the instruction to "make -C bootstrap start"
It prompts the readline library is missing. After readline installed, the additional ones are missing.

2nd try:

Installed all the packaged mentioned in https://github.com/AXLEproject/axle-healthcare-benchmark/blob/master/bootstrap/centos-setup-lake.sh:

Add EPEL repository

rpm -Uvh http://mirrors.nl.eu.kernel.org/fedora-epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
sed -i 's/enabled=0/enabled=1/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
yum install -y curl wget htop mc joe

packages for building postgresql

yum install -y git gcc bison flex gdb make readline-devel zlib-devel uuid-devel

packages for profiling

yum install -y perf graphviz readline-devel zlib-devel pgagent_92 libxslt-devel

Then try "make -C bootstrap start" again. I got this:

You can change this by editing pg_hba.conf or using the option -A, or
--auth-local and --auth-host, the next time you run initdb.

Success. You can now start the database server using:

pg_ctl -D /home/vagrant/axle-healthcare-benchmark/bootstrap/../database/data -l logfile start

Anyone can help? Thank you!

There appear to be some difficulties installing one of the required database modules to run Healthcare Data lake. The command in question is "make -C bootstrap installhdl." While the mgridhdl download is successful, there is an error downstream saying "problem running post-install step. Installation may not complete correctly - error while reading ZIP file /tmp/loinc_242.zip." The hdl seems to be extremely critical because it enables the standards vocabulary (e.g. hl7v3models_edition2011). Trying to create the lake database without the module in question results in failure. My question now is whether this is an mgrid problem, a postgres problem, or axle-healthcare-benchmark problem?
