Problem with format="input" when using multiple inputs
by Assaf Gordon
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,

Error when attempting to run galaxy
by Roger Kapul
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. I downloaded and installed galaxy by following the steps on the
wiki and used the mercurial repository to download it.

command interpreter not using interpreter in my $PATH
by Leandro Hermida
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

Galaxy Developer Conference 2011
by Anton Nekrutenko
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

<repeat> tag
by Pei, Bing
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
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-me...
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

Possible Bug?
by Michael Siebauer
Hi,
I maybe found a bug or misunderstand something in the debugging/logging
section of universal_wsgi.ini
I wanted to disable any logging and so commented everything within the
logging section:
|# ---- Logging and Debugging
------------------------------------------------
# Verbosity of log messages
#log_level = DEBUG
# Log memory usage
#log_memory_usage = False
# Log events
#log_events = True
# Log user actions
#log_actions = False
# Configuration for debugging middleware
#debug = True
#use_lint = False
# Interactive debugging - NEVER enable this on a public site
#use_interactive = False
# Write thread status periodically to 'heartbeat.log' (careful, uses
disk space rapidly!)
#use_heartbeat = False
# Enable the memory debugging interface (careful, negatively impacts
server performance)
#use_memdump = False
# Profiling middleware (cProfile based)
#use_profile = False
|
When I then start Galaxy the complete History shows only "Internal
Server Error" and the Galaxy Log:
|Starting server in PID 5470.

After uncommenting everything in the logging section, galaxy works fine

Error Uploading file
by Sébastien HARISPE
Hi,
I encountered some difficulties to upload a file using tool interface.
This returns the following error, see [1] .Upload a file using "Get
data > Upload file" is not a problem.
Xml tag used for tool definition : <param format="fasta" name="seq"
type="file" label="Fasta file"/>
Python version 2.6.5 (r265:79063)
Do you know how this error can be solved?
Sincerely,
Seb
