Re: [galaxy-dev] [galaxy-user] Warning message
by Daniel Blankenberg 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

Hi Rolando, Please keep all replies on list. Without a little more information its hard to guess what is happening. Can you provide the log output for when you try to start the server? Is this a cloud instance? If I had to make a guess, it would be that there is a permissions problem due to the copy. Can you make sure that when you copied the .sample file over the .xml file that you did it as the galaxy user?

Trackster error after upgrade
by Joachim Jacob 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

Hi all, After upgrading to the latest galaxy-dist, Trackster does not behave. Nearly all saved viz's just show a blank main window, while just displaying the Galaxy header and the trackster header bar. In contrast, one visualisation gives this error: ConverterDependencyException: 'A dependency (bgzip) was in an error state.' Any help appreciated, thanks.

Local data
by Perez, Ricardo 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

Hi, I am sorry for the trivial question. Does anyone know how I can make a local instance of Galaxy use our local database files? We have downloaded the database from USCS and would like to use the downloaded files instead of retrieving it from the UCSC Table Browser when processing data. Thank you very much for your help, --Ricardo Perez

Can't edit galaxy workflow
by Richard Park 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

Hi Guys, I updated to the latest galaxy distribution today and I cant seem to edit existing workflows. I've seen others with this error from a Sept 07 distribution ( http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/Can-t-edit-Galaxy-Workflow-ElementInterfa…) but Jeremy Goecks mentioned that this might of been fixed in the Sept 20 distribution. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Uploading to history via JavaScript
by Ted Goldstein 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

Essentially, this the similar to a dataset upload where the origin is from a web page when a user clicks on a HTML button. The button is not part of the tool framework but any number of possible I am writing a variety of data editors in JavaScript and it would be convenient to upload the dataset into the user's current history list. of JavaScript actions. I think I should be able to use the regular upload1 (upload.py) machinery. But So far, I have not had success in tricking it with my JavaScript function. I know that I could add web api. But there is a lot hairy code in the history dataset association that looks like it will change. So I'd rather keep it simple. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Ted function UploadToHistory(name, value) { var payload = { tool_id: "upload1", 'file_type': 'tabular', 'file_name', name, 'dbkey': '?', 'files_0|url_paste': value}; $.ajax( { async: false, type: "POST", url: "/tool_runner/index", data: payload, dataType: "json", success: function(array_obj, status) { console.log("success", array_obj, status); }, failure: function() {console.log("fail");} } ); }
