Intalling the Windows version of the TPP is fairly straightforward. Detailed instructions with lots of screenshots appear below. However, the following brief instructions may be sufficient:

  • Make sure that you have rights to install software on your computer (i.e. Admin privileges)
  • Install the latest version of ActivePerl (some versions will not work)
  • Download the latest TPP here and install

Here are the detailed instructions. The screenshots are large; don't miss the instructions interspersed between them:

Contents

First install ActivePerl

Install the most current version of ActivePerl. If you happen to already have ActivePerl installed any versions older than 5.9 should work but are not regularly tested. Our recommendation however is to upgrade to the latest.

Go to www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads to download the "Community Edition". On the right side of the page select either the x86 or 64 bit version and save the download to your desktop. Double-click to install.

(The instructions above are accurate as of March, 2014. Details can change if ActivePerl modifies its website.)

Next install the MSVC/.Net Frameworks

In order to use ProteoWizard's msconvert program (bundled with TPP) you'll need to also have installed the MSVC 2008/2010 SP1 (x86), and the .NET Framework 3.5/4.0 SP1 software packages Microsoft which may already be installed on your system. Download each of the following to your desktop and run the installers.

Now install TPP

(If you are not currently reading this from the spctools.org website: go to www.spctools.org/wiki, click on TPP in left nav bar, and click Windows Installation.)

Download the TPP from its page at the Sourceforge website

Using your web browser navigate to http://sourceforge.net/projects/sashimi/ and click on the download link to download the most current version of the "Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (TPP)" for your platform and save to your desktop.

Alternatively if you would like to download a different version of TPP or the downlink doesn't recognize your platform go to the Files item in the command bar. Next select the "Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (TPP)" folder. Then the folder with the version you'd like to download (e.g. TPP v4.7 (polar vortex) rev 0". In it you will find a Window's self installing executable and a compressed TAR file containing the source.

Double-click resulting icon, then select "run"

Installation typically takes less than a minute

You will see a welcome install popup -- read and click OK. You will see another popup asking to install and configure a webserver on your computer. This is necessary. If you agree, click OK. Finally you will see an "installation complete" popup -- choose whether to reboot now or later.
