running functional tests on a galaxy server
by Fields, Christopher J 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

I have been following the basic protocol for running remote tests on a Galaxy server (in this case, our local one) using: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Running%20Tests >From reading this, I assume the tests are to be run from the galaxy root directory, like so: GALAXY_TEST_EXTERNAL=1 GALAXY_TEST_HOST=my.local.galaxy.url GALAXY_TEST_PORT=8080 \ ./nosetests.sh However, no 'nosetests.sh' script exists there. Should we be using ./scripts/nosetests.py? ./scripts/functional_tests.py? Any clarification on this would be very helpful, we're just searching for a way to run tests in as automated a way as possible using the server configuration. chris Chris Fields Senior Research Scientist National Center for Supercomputing Applications Institute for Genomic Biology University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

job quotas
by Ivan Merelli 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

Hi, is it possible to restrict the number of concurrent jobs for a single user in a local instance of galaxy? I see that in the public site this feature is implemented, but I don't find documentation about how to implement this locally. I think it's not possible through pbs because all users submit jobs as the defauls galaxy user. Cheers, Ivan

.gz extension gets stripped off when uploading via data library Upload via filesystem paths but not via Get Data -> Upload File
by Leandro Hermida 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

Hello, We've created a new binary datatype for .fastq.gz files following the same methodology as the BAM files since we don't want our fasta.gz files to be gunzipped. I added the appropriate code in upload.py to make sure of this. This new datatype and extension successfully does not gunzip our files. But when we upload it into a data library via the data library "Upload via filesystem paths" it for some reason automatically strips the .gz part out. When we take the same .fastq.gz file and upload it via Get Data -> Upload File it works fine, nothing is stripped from file name. Where is it doing this and how can prevent from stripping the .gz via the data library menus? thanks, Leandro

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

how to set FTP quota?
by Leon Mei 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Dear Galaxy team, We just installed ProFTPd (the same as Galaxy Main) on our Galaxy server. Now we would like to implement a FTP quota. I am wondering how Galaxy main handles this. Could you give us some hints? And does the disk quota counting script include the FTP directory? Thanks very much, Leon -- Hailiang (Leon) Mei Netherlands Bioinformatics Center BioAssist NGS Taskforce - https://wiki.nbic.nl/index.php/Next_Generation_Sequencing Skype: leon_mei Mobile: +31 6 41709231

Is it possible to pass runtime values to workflows through the API?
by Carlos Borroto 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Hi, I was wondering if is possible to pass runtime values to workflows thought the API? I want to run the same workflow for several inputs, but there are values other than the inputs that I need to change for each run. Is it possible to leave these values as 'To be set at runtime' and set them through the API? Also, I see 'Step Actions' do not support the option of 'To be set at runtime', could this be included in a future release, in other words, can this be a feature request? Thanks, Carlos

Error download composite dataset from history
by Louise-Amélie Schmitt 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Hello! I'm running into an error when trying to download a composite dataset from the history with the floppy disk icon. Here is the error message in the logs: galaxy.web.controllers.dataset ERROR 2012-01-18 16:32:10,324 Unable to remove temporary library download archive and directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/g/funcgen/galaxy-dev/lib/galaxy/web/controllers/dataset.py", line 285, in archive_composite_dataset os.rmdir( tmpd ) OSError: [Errno 39] Directory not empty: './database/tmp/tmpkRv28I' Then I tried replacing the os.rmdir by a shutil.rmtree to see if it would solve the issue, and here is what I got: galaxy.web.controllers.dataset ERROR 2012-01-18 16:34:30,239 Unable to remove temporary library download archive and directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/g/funcgen/galaxy-dev/lib/galaxy/web/controllers/dataset.py", line 286, in archive_composite_dataset shutil.rmtree( tmpd ) File "/g/steinmetz/collaboration/software/CentOS5/opt/Python-2.6.5/lib/python2.6/shutil.py", line 221, in rmtree onerror(os.remove, fullname, sys.exc_info()) File "/g/steinmetz/collaboration/software/CentOS5/opt/Python-2.6.5/lib/python2.6/shutil.py", line 219, in rmtree os.remove(fullname) OSError: [Errno 16] Device or resource busy: './database/tmp/tmpwpsShD/.nfs000000000289ccea00000138' But when I check the contents of the direcory, there is no hidden .nfs-something file. Does anyone have an idea why this could occur? Both our testing instance and our production instance have the same issue, the first being on galaxy-central and the second on galaxy-dist. Thanks, L-A

problems with location of filter bar in trackster
by Hans-Rudolf Hotz 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Hi I am still in the process of upgrading all our Galaxy servers to the current changeset ("b258de1e6cea", Nov. 18) and now I am running into troubles with the visualization: Depending on the location of my mouse, the filter bar and the other extra buttons jump between two positions, which makes it impossible to use, see Screenshot_1.png and Screenshot_2.png I was looking for relevant code changes, which were committed after Nov. 18. I found changeset "856aac70b018" ("Trackster: refactor action icon creation and initialization" from Nov. 23) for ~/static/scripts/trackster.js Adding this change fixes the problem somehow, but I lose the original icons (for 'set display mode', 'Hide/Show track content', etc) and the bar is now below the track, see Screenshot_3.png Just using the ~/static/scripts/trackster.js from 'central' doesn't solve the problem either. Are there any extra steps I can do in addition to changeset "856aac70b018" in order to solve this problem (except for waiting/using for the next release) Thank you very much for your help Hans
