Default value for data_column not working?
by Peter Cock 14 May '14

14 May '14

Hi all, I'm trying to write a new tool working with tabular data (specifically a Reciprocal Best Hits (RBH) tool using BLAST style tabular output). I want the user to be able to choose a column number (from one of the input files), but I have a default column in mind. However, Galaxy doesn't seem to obey the default column number: <inputs> <param name="a_vs_b" type="data" format="tabular" label="Hits from querying A against B" description="Tabular file, e.g. BLAST output" /> <param name="b_vs_a" type="data" format="tabular" label="Hits from querying B against A" description="Tabular file, e.g. BLAST output" /> <param name="id1" type="data_column" data_ref="a_vs_b" multiple="False" numerical="False" value="1" label="Column containing query ID" help="This is column 1 in standard BLAST tabular output" /> <param name="id2" type="data_column" data_ref="a_vs_b" multiple="False" numerical="False" value="2" label="Column containing match ID" help="This is column 2 in standard BLAST tabular output"/> <param name="score" type="data_column" data_ref="a_vs_b" multiple="False" numerical="False" value="12" label="Column containing containing score to rank on" help="The bitscore is column 12 in standard BLAST tabular output"/> </inputs> I've tried giving the default column value numerically (as shown), and also using value="c2" etc. Regardless, Galaxy just defaults to the first column. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Peter

Hi Yan, I've moved this discussion to the galaxy-dev list since it pertains to a local installation of Galaxy. Responses to your questions follow, in-line. Yan Luo wrote: > Dear Sir, > > (1)We installed Galaxy, but recently the user can't registered and got the > following error, how can we fix it? > > Sever error > An error occurred. See the error logs for more information.(To turn debug on > to display ...). Since debug = False in universe_wsgi.ini, you should be able to find a more detailed error message in the log file. If starting Galaxy with: % sh run.sh --daemon The default log file is 'paster.log' in Galaxy's root directory. > (2) Could you please let me know if there is any command to stop galaxy? If starting with the --daemon flag (as above), you can use: % sh run.sh --stop-daemon If running in the foreground, you can use Ctrl-C to terminate the process. There is a recent bug whereby Ctrl-C is ineffective on some platforms under Python 2.6 - in this case you will have to kill/pkill the process manually. We are working on a fix for the latter. > (3) If I reset universe_wsgi.ini file and want to set an administrator > user(I can add a line in the above file), how can I get the password? Should > I stop galaxy(See question 2) first? then run "./setup.sh" and "./run.sh". setup.sh would have only been necessary prior to running Galaxy the first time, however, this step has recently been removed. If you are referencing documentation that still refers to setup.sh, please let us know so we can update it - I did notice this was still on the "Production Server" page, so I removed it from there. You no longer need to run setup.sh at all. > (4) If I run "setup.sh", will a new file "universe_wsgi.ini" be generated? > if I want to change this file,should I edit it before "run.sh" and after > "setup.sh". Is it right? setup.sh and its replacements in run.sh and the Galaxy application itself never overwrite files, they only create files from sample files if they do not exist. > (5) I read some of your docs, command "sh setup.sh"(sh run.sh) and > "./setup.sh"(./run.sh), which one is correct under Linux?

Puzzling test failure with data_column parameter
by Peter Cock 24 Apr '13

24 Apr '13

Hi all, I'm working on a FASTA filter script, as per this email: http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2010-November/003819.html Current code here: http://bitbucket.org/peterjc/galaxy-central/src/c3ac6d7a02f7/ I've added a basic test, but it won't run (see output below). I think the interesting bit of the error output is this exception: cannot find value/label "blastp_four_human_vs_rhodopsin.tabular" in list control, coming from function set_form_control_value in the twill.utils module. This is something to do with the columns parameter, a multiselect option referencing the columns in this tabular file. Removing the validator makes no difference. However, if I change the columns parameter to a plain text parameter, the test passes: $ hg diff diff -r c3ac6d7a02f7 tools/fasta_tools/fasta_filter_by_id.xml --- a/tools/fasta_tools/fasta_filter_by_id.xml Tue Nov 23 11:37:35 2010 +0000 +++ b/tools/fasta_tools/fasta_filter_by_id.xml Tue Nov 23 14:03:31 2010 +0000 @@ -4,9 +4,7 @@ <inputs> <param name="input_fasta" type="data" format="fasta" label="FASTA file to filter on the identifiers"/> <param name="input_tabular" type="data" format="tabular" label="Tabular file containing FASTA identifiers"/> - <param name="columns" type="data_column" data_ref="input_tabular" multiple="True" numerical="False" label="Column(s) containing FASTA identifiers" help="Multi-select list - hold the appropriate key while clicking to select multiple columns"> - <validator type="no_options" message="Pick at least one column"/> - </param> + <param name="columns" type="text" label="Column(s) containing FASTA identifiers" /> </inputs> <outputs> <data name="output_pos" format="fasta" label="With matched ID" /> I've tried searching the provided wrappers for similar examples (column multi-select from a tabular file). I found filters/uniq.xml (works but uses a bed file rather than a simple tabular file) and stats/cor.xml (needs R and rpy which I don't have installed yet) which have tests, and finally plotting/bar_chart.xml which has no unit tests. Would someone familiar with the internals of the Galaxy tests and how they set tool parameters be able to try reproducing this for me? The branch has all the unit test files required, and there are no new dependencies needed.

Tabular file metadata - columns names
by Peter 22 Feb '13

22 Feb '13

Hi all, I'd like to know more about Galaxy's column metadata for tabular files. In the workflow editor under "Edit Step Actions" you can pick "Assign Columns", and then give column numbers for five predefined cases: Chrom, Start, End, Strand, Name. Do these "named columns" get shown anywhere in the Galaxy UI? For example, in a column select parameter widget? Is it possible to assign these columns in a tool's wrapper XML file? >From http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/ToolConfigSyntax I'm aware of the metadata_source attribute to *copy* the meta data from the input file, but that isn't always relevant. Can I somehow specify that my tool has tabular output where column 1 is "Name"? Is it possible to introduce additional column types? e.g. "evalue" or "Description". Thanks, Peter

run_functional_tests.sh -sid option
by Peter 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

Hi, I'm trying to use run_functional_tests.sh to run all the tests for a section (group of tools). I've read the output from: ./run_functional_tests.sh help For example, from the tools_conf.xml.sample we have <section name="ENCODE Tools" id="EncodeTools"> <tool file="encode/gencode_partition.xml" /> <tool file="encode/random_intervals.xml" /> </section> And looking at these tools' XML files, <tool id="gencode_partition1" name="Gencode Partition"> and: <tool id="random_intervals1" name="Random Intervals"> I'd like to run the functional tests for the ENCODE tools, Using the switch for an individual tool id (-id) works, ./run_functional_tests.sh -id gencode_partition1 ... Ran 1 test in 22.302s ... and so does this (well, it say the tool doesn't have any tests which is true in this example): ./run_functional_tests.sh -id random_intervals1 ... Ran 1 test in 0.027s ... However, I also tried using the section id switch (-sid), ./run_functional_tests.sh -sid EncodeTools ... Ran 0 tests in 0.000s ... I also tried using the section name, /run_functional_tests.sh -sid "ENCODE Tools" Is this (-sid not working) a known issue, or am I using it wrong? Thanks, Peter

Hiding a tool via tool_conf.xml
by Peter Cock 30 Oct '12

30 Oct '12

Hi all, I'm aware that in an individual tool's XML wrapper you can add hidden="true" to the <tool> element to hide the tool from the listing shown in Galaxy's left hand panel (but the tool is still loaded and can be called by old workflows etc). Can this be done via the tool_conf.xml file as well? This would seem useful from a system configuration point of view where it seems wrong to edit the tool wrappers themselves. In fact, it might also be nice to add hidden="true" support to <section> as well as <tool> in tool_conf.xml - although I'm not so sure how useful that would be. Peter

Galaxy administrators - admin_users setting
by Peter Cock 30 May '12

30 May '12

Hi all, To make someone an administrator on a local Galaxy install, do I just need to add their email (login) to the comma separated setting admin_users in universe_wsgi.ini? https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/Admin/AdminInterface I have this working on one server, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on a second server. Both are now running the current release (changeset 50e249442c5a). Is there some other setting needed to enable the admin interface? Thanks, Peter

debugging jobs in 'new' state
by Shantanu Pavgi 10 May '12

10 May '12

We experienced an issue where some of the galaxy jobs were sitting in the 'new' state for a quite long time. They were not waiting for cluster resources to become available, but haven't been even queued up through DRMAA. We are currently using non-debug mode and following were my observations: * No indication of new jobs in paster.log file * database/pbs script didn't contain any associated job scripts * in backend database - job table contained their galaxy job id but no command_line input was recorded Also, not all the jobs are waiting in the 'new' state. Many jobs submitted after above waiting jobs got completed successfully on the cluster. Is there any job submission logic within galaxy which is being used for submitting jobs? Any clues on how to debug this issue will be really helpful. -- Thanks, Shantanu.

Integration with LIMS
by Sonderegger Bernhard 30 Nov '11

30 Nov '11

Hello, I am exploring the possibility of using a local galaxy installation for light bioinformatics on sequence data in the scope of an existing LIMS system. Ideally I would like to be able to do the following 1. Push datasets from the LIMS to galaxy (directly into the user's account or into a fresh temporary session) 2. Allow the user to perform tasks within galaxy, backtracking and retrying as necessary. 3. Push the results along with the galaxy history (ideally converted to a workflow) back to the LIMS 4. (Allow workflows stored in the LIMS to be pushed to Galaxy along with further datasets or even completely automatic launch of these workflows from within the LIMS) Is this feasible? How much wrok would be required? Since I am new to Galaxy (at least from the development side), I would very much appreciate comments advice and pointers to documentation or existing projects of a similar nature. Thanks in advance, Bernhard

Hi Yan, I've again moved this back to the galaxy-dev list. Please reply to this list and not galaxy-user. Yan Luo wrote: > Dear Nate, > > Thanks for your quick response.

If you are executing run.sh without the --daemon flag, the output will go to whatever terminal window you started Galaxy in, not to a file. You'll want to make sure that all of the files under Galaxy's root directory are owned by a single user, which is the same user which starts and runs the Galaxy process. > (2) We want to reboot the Galaxy, should we first stop and start as > follows? > $ sh run.sh --stop > $ sh run.sh The full command to stop would be `sh run.sh --stop-daemon`, but that only applies if you originally started Galaxy with `run.sh --daemon`. > Is there any difference if I use "-daemon" flag?

The --daemon flag runs Galaxy in the background and redirects its output to paster.log. Without the --daemon flag, the process stays connected to the terminal in which you start it. Since Galaxy wasn't originally started with the --daemon flag, you'll need to find the process, either by locating the terminal window in which it was started (possibly by your colleague) and then hitting Ctrl-C, or by using the `ps` command (e.g. `ps auxwww | grep python`) and killing the Galaxy process. It usually looks something like: nate 18213 0.9 0.4 438844 146260 pts/7 Sl+ 10:47 2:30 python ./scripts/paster.py serve universe_wsgi.ini So you would do: % kill 18213 > (3) Could you please let me know if there is a default administrator > user/password for galaxy.

How can I set/get my password? > admin_users = yan.luo(a)email.com There is no default. Any users set in admin_uesrs will be administrators. If the account specified in admin_users does not yet exist, you can simply create it. Once created, that account will be an administrator. > (4) I found our "universe_wsgi.ini" contains the following setting, should I > remove "#" before this line, stop and start galaxy? > #allow_user_creation = True No, True is the default setting so with it commented it is still set to True. > I plan to restart our galaxy, if it is possible, could you please let me > know your phone #?
