Problems with DataImport
by Ted Goldstein 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Hi there, Here are three interrelated issues. I am trying to use Galaxy with some large cancer genomic datasets here at UCSC and do some systems biology. I have petabyte size dataset data libraries which will constantly be in flux at the edges. I would prefer to just have the Galaxy read the metadata from the file system for large datasets without using the database. Is there a convenient api boundary to write an adapter to the dataset object interface? In the meantime, I am going to try to just import day using the link. Its great that this feature is in already When I import into a couple of a modest megabyte size dataset using "Link to files without copying to Galaxy" option, the status never changes from "queued". Is this a bug? Is there a known work around? I have many large datasets. Also, it takes a long time to expand the dataset name link. (My experiment on import is a data tree of about a thousand files). Is this a known bug? Thanks! Ted

Re: [galaxy-dev] Error viewing BAM files in IGV
by Jim Johnson 01 Feb '12

Hi, I'm seeing the same behavior. Galaxy is returning a web page rather than the requested .bai index file for the BAM file. In class WebApplication ( lib/galaxy/web/framework/base.py ) in __call__( self, environ, start_response ) line 133 # Setup the transaction trans = self.transaction_factory( environ ) Gets routed to the root controller and returns the galaxy server main page html.

I don't have an environment set up here to test, but could you take a look at the Apache access and error logs to determine whether the file is being found and read properly?

Customizing the history panel
by Lukasse, Pieter 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Hi, I'm looking for ways to customize the history panel that gets added to the workflow history after a step has finished. Below is the standard set of buttons/icons that we normally get: [cid:image001.png@01CCA9D3.2C2EF410] What I would like to do is to either add some extra buttons to it OR extend the functionality of such a button. How can this be done? I only found the page below mentioning there are some extra optional buttons, but it does not tell me how to enable/disable the buttons: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Learn/Managing%20Datasets Thanks and regards, Pieter Lukasse.

dadaset (file) visualization

31 Jan '12

Hi, I'm new in galaxy, but i've made several installations in different distributions. At his moment I'm using RHEL 6.1 and I'm not able to visualize certain files. After uploading a SAM file I click on the file title and a preview of few lines appears whith the rest of the available options. When i click on the "eye" button nothing happen. If i try to download it, i do receive an empty file. This behaviour occurs with other file extension (BAM, HTML), but not whith others (FASTA, FASTAq) Using wget: wget "http://10.0.0.2:8090/galaxy/datasets/5969b1f7201f12ae/display/?preview=True" --2011-12-01 18:18:56-- http://10.0.0.2:8090/galaxy/datasets/5969b1f7201f12ae/display/?preview=True Connecting to 10.0.0.2:8090... connected.

How to allow anonymous users to run workflows?
by Tim te Beek 29 Jan '12

29 Jan '12

Hi all, Was wondering how I can allow anonymous users to run workflows in my local Galaxy instance, as currently users need to be logged in to run workflows. I'd like drop this requirement in light of the intended publication of a workflow in a journal which demands that "Web services must not require mandatory registration by the user.". Could any you tell me how I can accomplish this? I've seen the option to use an external authentication method which could be employed to artificially 'login' anonymous users for a single session, but it appears this would also disable the normal users administration mechanisms in Galaxy, so I'm not sure this would be a good fit. Any hints on how to proceed, either via this route or otherwise, would be much appreciated. Best regards, Tim

MergeSamFiles.jar and TMPDIR
by Glen Beane 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

We recently updated to the latest galaxy-dist, and learned that the sam_merge.xml tool now uses picard MergeSamFiles.jar to merge the files instead of the samtools merge wrapper sam_merge.py. this is a problem for us because MergeSamFiles.jar does not honor $TMPDIR when creating temporary file names (the jvm developers inexplicably hard code the value of java.io.tmpdir to /tmp in Unix/Linux rather than doing the Right Thing) . On our cluster, TMPDIR is set to something like /scratch/batch_job_id/. This location has plenty of free space, however /tmp does not and now we can't successfully merge largeish bam files. In case anyone else is bit by this, I think there are two options the Picard tools take an optional TMP_DIR= argument that lets us specify the location we want to use for a temporary directory. Initially we ended up modifying the .xml to add TMP_DIR=\$TMPDIR to the arguments to MergeSamFiles.jar. This works, but we could potentially need to do this with multiple Picard tools and not just MergeSamFiles. Now I am probably going to go with the following solution: add something like "export _JAVA_OPTIONS=-Djava.io.tmpdir=$TMPDIR" to the .bashrc file for my Galaxy user. -- Glen L.

Galaxy installation with mysql database
by Alex R Bigelow 23 Jan '12

23 Jan '12

Hi, I am trying to install a local instance of Galaxy with an infobright mysql server; I created a database called "galaxy" (the user is also "galaxy," and it has all the privileges it should need), and the database_connection line is as follows: database_connection = mysql://galaxy:***********@localhost/galaxy?unix_socket=/tmp/mysql-ib.sock When I do this, I get the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/web/buildapp.py", line 82, in app_factory app = UniverseApplication( global_conf = global_conf, **kwargs ) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/app.py", line 32, in __init__ create_or_verify_database( db_url, kwargs.get( 'global_conf', {} ).get( '__file__', None ), self.config.database_engine_options ) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/model/migrate/check.py", line 65, in create_or_verify_database db_schema = schema.ControlledSchema( engine, migrate_repository ) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/eggs/sqlalchemy_migrate-0.5.4-py2.7.egg/migrate/versioning/schema.py", line 24, in __init__ self._load() File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/eggs/sqlalchemy_migrate-0.5.4-py2.7.egg/migrate/versioning/schema.py", line 36, in _load self.table = Table(tname, self.meta, autoload=True) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.7.egg/sqlalchemy/schema.py", line 108, in __call__ return type.__call__(self, name, metadata, *args, **kwargs) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.7.egg/sqlalchemy/schema.py", line 236, in __init__ _bind_or_error(metadata).reflecttable(self, include_columns=include_columns) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.7.egg/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 1265, in reflecttable self.dialect.reflecttable(conn, table, include_columns) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.7.egg/sqlalchemy/databases/mysql.py", line 1664, in reflecttable sql = self._show_create_table(connection, table, charset) File "/gen21/alex/Apps/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.7.egg/sqlalchemy/databases/mysql.py", line 1835, in _show_create_table raise exc.NoSuchTableError(full_name) NoSuchTableError: migrate_version I found this question in the archives: http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2010-March/002216.html As per both replies, I tried a virtual_env, which didn't work, and I also deleted the "galaxy" database so that it would create a fresh one, but, of course, now it can't connect to the database because it doesn't exist. How do I tell Galaxy to create the database it needs? Thanks again for all the support, Alex Bigelow

Quota will not decrease with permanent delete
by Mary Anne Alliegro 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Hi Galaxy Users, I have permanently deleted numerous files. My usage % has decreased, but this is NOT reflected in my Gb report (upper right)- it remains the same. Am I missing some phantom trash bin? If not, will Galaxy recalculate my Gb usage so that I may proceed with my project? Thank you, Mary Anne

rgenetics & galaxy
by Ivan Merelli 17 Jan '12

17 Jan '12

Hi, I'm trying to use rgenetics in galaxy, but I have some problem in installting rpy-1.0.3 with R-2.13.1. I found this guide, which is about the same problem of mine: http://gmod.827538.n3.nabble.com/Rpy-1-0-3-and-R-2-13-1-td3359590.html but didn't work for me (although the part about the modulefile is quite obscure for me). The problem seems to be correlated to an header file (Rdevices.h) which is no more present in the latest R distribution. Any hints to solve this problem? May I use rpy2? Best, Ivan

Re: [galaxy-dev] Tool shed and datatypes
by Jim Johnson 05 Jan '12

05 Jan '12

Greg, It would be great if there were a way to expand upon the core datatypes using the ToolShed. Would it be possible to have a separate datatype repository within the ToolShed? Datatype name="" description="" datatype_dependencies=[] definition=<python code> The tool config could be expanded to have requirement for datatypes. <requirement type="datatype">ssmap</requirement> Table datatype Column | Type | Modifiers -------------+-----------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- id | integer | not null default nextval('datatype_id_seq'::regclass) name | character varying(255) | version | character varying(40) | description | text | definition | text | UNIQUE (name) Table datatype_datatype_association Column | Type | Modifiers -------------+-----------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- id | integer | not null default nextval('datatype_id_seq'::regclass) datatype_id | integer | requires_id | integer | FOREIGN KEY (datatype_id) REFERENCES datatype(id) FOREIGN KEY (requires_id) REFERENCES datatype(id) Then for my mothur metagenomics tools I could define: name="ssmap" description="Secondary Structure Map" version="1.0" datatype_dependencies=[tabular] definition= from galaxy.datatypes.tabular import Tabular class SecondaryStructureMap(Tabular): file_ext = 'ssmap' def __init__(self, **kwd): """Initialize secondary structure map datatype""" Tabular.__init__( self, **kwd ) self.column_names = ['Map'] def sniff( self, filename ): """ Determines whether the file is a secondary structure map format A single column with an integer value which indicates the row that this row maps to. check you make sure is structMap[10] = 380 then structMap[380] = 10. """ ... Then the align.check.xml tool_config could require the 'ssmap' datatype: <tool id="mothur_align_check" name="Align.check" version="1.19.0"> <description>Calculate the number of potentially misaligned bases</description> <requirements> <requirement type="binary">mothur</requirement> <requirement type="datatype">ssmap</requirement> </requirements> > John, > > I've been following this message thread, and it seems it's gone in a direction that differs from your initial question about the possibility for Galaxy to handle automatic editing of the datatypes_conf.xml file when certain Galaxy tool shed tools are automatically installed. There are some complexities to consider in attempting this. One of the issues to consider is that the work for adding support for a new datatype to Galaxy lies outside of the intended function of the tool shed. If new support is added to the Galaxy code base, an entry for that new datatype should be manually added to the table at the same time. There may be benefits to enabling automatic changes to datatype entries that already exist in the file (e.g., adding a new converter for an existing datatype entry), but perhaps adding a completely new datatype to the file may not be appropriate.

An effective way to deal with that is by compressing the FASTQ files. That works for BWA and our ELAND, which can directly read a compressed FASTQ, but other tools crash when reading compressed FASTQ filesfiles. One way to address that would be to introduce a new type, for example “CompressedFastQ”, with a conversion to FASTQ defined. BWA could take both types as input.
