Hello Jaysheel,
   If you are using the directUrl option in trackDb.ra, it will appear 
in the 'settings' field of the trackDb table, not in the 'url' field as 
one might expect. You can also try using the 'url' option, which you can 
read about in the trackDb README file (kent/src/hg/makeDb/trackDb/README)

I hope this clears things up for you. Please contact us again at 
[email protected] if you have further questions about your 
local copy of the genome browser.
