Problem installing local instance of Galaxy
by Kenneth Watanabe 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

To Galaxy, I installed Galaxy on my local server.. I modified the universe_wsgi.ini file as follows: # The address on which to listen. By default, only listen to localhost (Galaxy # will not be accessible over the network). Use '0.0.0.0' to listen on all # available network interfaces. host = 0.0.0.0 I type the following command at the LINUX prompt to start the service $ sh run.sh ... Starting server in PID 2685 serving on 0.0.0.0:8080 view at http://127.0.0.1:800 When I open FIrefox directly on the server and go to the web address http://localhost:8080 the galaxy screen appears. When I open FIrefox on my PC and go to http://localhost:8080, I get the following error "Unable to connect Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:8080." Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. -- Kenneth Watanabe University of Nevada

I find the select box yes/no idiom a bit awkward. I'd prefer a checkbox (just a single one, not one each for "yes" and "no") but doing a select box is ok too, I can live with that. I'm running into problems constructing my command, though. I'm new to cheetah so that might be it. First off, here's my inputs and outputs: <inputs> <conditional name="firstConditional"> <param name="param1" type="select" label="Filter 1" help="helpful tips"> <option value="no">no</option> <option value="yes">yes</option> </param> <when value="yes"> <param name="IntegerBox" type="integer" value="1" min="0" max="5" label="A parameter to filter 1" help="helpful text" /> </when> <when value="no" />  </conditional> <conditional name="secondConditional"> <param name="param2" type="select" label="Filter 2" help="helpful tips"> <option value="no">no</option> <option value="yes">yes</option> </param> <when value="yes"> <param name="IntegerBox2" type="integer" value="1" min="0" max="5" label="A parameter to filter 2" help="helpful text" /> </when> <when value="no" />  </conditional> </inputs> <outputs> <data format="csv" name="outputFileName"/> </outputs> So the page displays two select boxes. If you select either one of them, a text box appears. This feeds to a python script that for now just echoes the parameters passed in and writes them to a file, which I can examine in galaxy. So here is what I have in the command section: <command interpreter="python"> tool.py #if $firstConditional.param1 == "yes": --filter1 $firstConditional.IntegerBox #end if # if $secondConditional.param2 == "yes": --filter2 $secondConditional.IntegerBox2 #end if $outputFileName </command> This results in an error: galaxy.jobs.runners.local ERROR 2012-08-16 10:43:42,677 failure running job 87 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/jobs/runners/local.py", line 59, in run_job job_wrapper.prepare() File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/jobs/__init__.py", line 429, in prepare self.command_line = self.tool.build_command_line( param_dict ) File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/tools/__init__.py", line 1971, in build_command_line command_line = fill_template( self.command, context=param_dict ) File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/util/template.py", line 9, in fill_template return str( Template( source=template_text, searchList=[context] ) ) File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Template.py", line 1244, in __init__ self._compile(source, file, compilerSettings=compilerSettings) File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Template.py", line 1538, in _compile keepRefToGeneratedCode=True) File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Template.py", line 745, in compile compiler.compile() File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Compiler.py", line 1670, in compile self._parser.parse() File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Parser.py", line 1488, in parse self.eatDirective() File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Parser.py", line 1610, in eatDirective directiveParser() File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Parser.py", line 1761, in eatEndDirective self.popFromOpenDirectivesStack(directiveName) File "/Users/dtenenba/dev/galaxy-dist/eggs/Cheetah-2.2.2-py2.7-macosx-10.6-intel-ucs2.egg/Cheetah/Parser.py", line 2645, in popFromOpenDirectivesStack raise ParseError(self, msg="#end found, but nothing to end") ParseError: #end found, but nothing to end Line 8, column 1 Line|Cheetah Code ----|------------------------------------------------------------- 5 | # if $secondConditional.param2 == "yes": 6 | --filter2 $secondConditional.IntegerBox2 7 | #end if 8 | $outputFileName ^ 9 | What I am trying to do is build up a command line bit by bit.

Parameter tracking in workflows
by Jonathan Manning 17 Aug '12

17 Aug '12

Hello all, I have a set of galaxyised R scripts, called directly via 'Rscript', which I run in workflows for microarray analysis. I would like to collect the parameters used at each step, for report generation, re-runs and provenance. My Galaxy noob instincts tell me to have each script 'output its inputs' to a file, several of which I would collate at the end of the workflow. Is there, as I suspect, a better way of doing this? I'm sure Galaxy has the info somewhere, I'm just not sure how to get at and use it. Is there a global variable I can pass from the tool xml that can be used to access this info? All pointers appreciated. Thanks, Jon -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.

Conditionally showing certain form elements on tool page
by Dan Tenenbaum 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hi all, I'm trying to wrap my head around what the <conditional> tag does...it looks like it doesn't do what I would like. I want to create a tool that allows the user to upload a data file and then have it run through one or more filters. Each filter takes one or more parameters. I was thinking I could do something like this: <inputs> <conditional name="mycond"> <param name="checktest" type="boolean" label="foo" value="yessir"> </param> <when value="yessir"> <param name="param1" type="text" label="bar" value="twunk"> </param> </when> </conditional> </inputs> The idea being, if the user checks the box labeled "foo", a text box labeled "bar" will appear. And I would have several such checkboxes and their accompanying parameters. But what I get is just the checkbox, and nothing happens when I click it. Is it possible to do what I have in mind, and if so, how? Also note that these conditions are not mutually exclusive. A user can select one *or more* filters. So I'm not sure how the body of my <command> tag should look. Is there a way I can just pass every possible parameter to my script like this: myscript.py param1=foo param2=bar If a parameter is not defined (because the user didn't click its associated checkbox), then the script will receive e.g. param1= param2=bar but it can deal with that. I realize I can make several tools and chain them together in a workflow, but that seems like overkill for this use case, and it would be nice if the user could set up their desired filters on one screen. Is this possible? Thanks! Dan

Problem with "upload file" tool on file uploaded through FTP server
by Sarah Diehl 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hi everyone, my local installation of Galaxy has an issue with using the "Upload File" tool on data that was uploaded to the ftp server. The ftp upload itself works fine: -rwxrwxrwx. 1 65533 65533 4804 2012-08-16 13:52 28S_rRNA.fa but there seems to be some issue with Galaxy moving it and I have no clue where the problem is.

Some questions about histories
by Sascha Kastens 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hi all! I have two questions about histories in Galaxy: 1. Is it possible to mark/set a history as published via the API? 2. How can I get the ID of the current users history via a tool? Something like ${__app__.model.User.get($__user_id__).histories[0].id} ?! Thanks in advance! Cheers, Sascha

Another trackster issue?
by SHAUN WEBB 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

I am looking at bigwig files in trackster. When I zoom in the point where 20kb is displayed on screen I get large blocks of the track separated by empty gaps. When I zoom in to these gaps there is definitely track signal there. Is this a bug or is this intended to limit the amount of data to load?

refresh user history
by Quang Trinh 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hi dev, We have a script that download a number of files from an external site, however, only the first file shows up in the user history once the downloads are complete. The rest of the files show up when we click on the refresh user history button. Is there a way to refresh the user history in our script when all the files are downloaded? THanks, Q
