Problem with format="input" when using multiple inputs
by Assaf Gordon 21 Jul '10

21 Jul '10

Hi, I came across a small problem in the tool definition parameters. It's rare, but it happens. The problem is that if the tool has more than one input file, AND uses variable output format based on the input file, AND the multiple input files are of different formats, then there's no way to properly set the output format based on the input format of a specific input. Example: Assume an imaginary tool that accepts 2 inputs: one input can be BED/GFF/BAM, the other input is tabular. The output should be the same as the interval file (BED/GFF/BAM). The XML definition would be: ========== <inputs> <param format="bed,gff,bam" name="input1" type="data" label="Intervals" /> <param format="tabular" name="input2" type="data" label="filter" /> </inputs> <outputs> <data format="input" name="output" metadata_source="input1" /> </outputs> =========== The problem is with 'format="input"' . Any other fixed format (e.g. "fasta" or "bam") would work fine. The special value "input" is hard-coded (lib/galaxy/tools/actions/__init__.py:226) to take the extension of "one" of the input files, but there's no way to specify which input (due to the loop in lib/galaxy/tools/actions/__init__.py:159) I guess it's not very a common scenario, because most tools that accept multiple inputs (e.g. concatenate queries) implicitly assume all inputs are the same format. I propose this ugly patch (attached), which is not the cleanest solution, but it allows specifying an input source, while not breaking any other tool definition. With it, I can specify the output definition as: === <outputs> <data format="input:input1" name="output" metadata_source="input1" /> </outputs> === And then the output dataset format will be copied from 'input1'. Comments are welcomed, -gordon

Error when attempting to run galaxy

Hello, I'm running a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, python version 2.6 and numpy version 1.3.0 and I get this error when I try to run galaxy on my machine.

command interpreter not using interpreter in my $PATH
by Leandro Hermida 21 Jul '10

21 Jul '10

Dear all, Sorry if I missed it, I looked in the list archives and couldn't find any mention of the topic. I am developing tools for Galaxy and thus running a Galaxy server from my within my home directory under my username. I have my own Perl installed in my home directory and this is in my $PATH, I don't use the system Perl, but when I run a Galaxy tool with <command interpreter="perl"> it is using the system Perl, as if my $PATH is not used at all. Since the Galaxy server and tool runner is running under my username and it looks like it just forks off a call to "perl ...." when it forks why doesn't it use my Perl? best, Leandro

Dear members of Galaxy Community: We are starting to prepare for the Second Galaxy Developer Conference in 2011. This time we would like to hold it in Europe and we were asked to consider Uppsala and Heidelberg. However, Galaxy is a community project and we would like to ask you for input. If any of you knows good and reliable conference facility, please let us know. We will then research this and finalize the conference planning. So let us know... Thanks, anton + galaxy team Anton Nekrutenko http://nekrut.bx.psu.edu http://usegalaxy.org

<repeat> tag
by Pei, Bing 16 Jul '10

16 Jul '10

Hi, I was wondering if I could get some more information on how the <repeat> tag works. If I am repeating an argument, say "$samplename," would the xml file just pass extra arguments to my command line, or do I have to do some extra configuration? If it is passing extra arguments, are they lumped together? For example if I want to repeat both $samplename and $lane using the same tag, is it sending to the command line $samplename1 $samplename2 $samplename3 $lane1 $lane2 $lane3 or $samplename1 $lane1 $samplename2 $lane2 $samplename3 $lane3? What types are supported by the <repeat> tag? Currently I am using type="text" but this does not seem to be working. Thanks!

nginx configuration and upload size
by Brad Chapman 16 Jul '10

16 Jul '10

Hey all; Nate, many thanks for the updated wiki documentation on configuring nginx. Awesome stuff, with the help of this I've been able to get nginx handling uploads on our local galaxy server. I added some notes to the documentation about getting this running with a prefix, and also submitted a patch which sorts out some redirect issues with both nginx and a prefix: http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/issue/366/uploads-from-tool-menu… There's one issue related to uploading through nginx that I could use some advice on. Uploading larger (>1M) files was giving a 413 error, which appeared to be related to the client_max_body_size parameter: http://forum.slicehost.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=1714 Resetting client_max_body_size to a value larger than the upload file resolved the problem. Is this how you handle large file uploads on Galaxy main or is there a better way? If that's the right solution I can add a note to the wiki docs for future nginx users, but am not confident enough in my nginx skillz to start passing out advice without a bit of confirmation. Thanks much, Brad
