Problems with Internet Explorer 9?
by Peter Cock 19 Dec '12

19 Dec '12

Hello all, Are there (or were there) any known problems with Galaxy under Microsoft Internet Explorer 9? One of our biologists is now having problems with our local Galaxy server, probably after updating his browser. Specifically new history entries do not seem to automatically update from queued to running to done, and also the "peep" functionality to expand/collapse a history entry had stopped working. This was on a large history of about 100 entries. We installed Firefox 10, logged into Galaxy, and it was fine with this same history. A quick test on the public Galaxy with a single history entry seemed to work in both browsers, so perhaps this is something you've already fixed in the latest Galaxy - or perhaps it depends on the size of the history. Any ideas? Has anyone else seen something similar? Thanks, Peter

producing HTML output with images
by Nikhil Joshi 19 Dec '12

19 Dec '12

Hi all, I am having trouble producing HTML output with images. In the past I have been able to produce HTML files with no images and it seemed to work fine. However, now I am writing a script that produces diagnostic images and I want to display all of the images on one page using HTML. I am using the "files_path" variable to create the plots in the working directory, and then I am using the "extra_files_path" variable to access the final plot from the html file. I look at the resulting HTML files and it points to the proper plot full path, and the plot DOES exist... but when I click to view the output, the plot doesn't render. It just shows an empty box with a "broken image" icon, however, the text does render. I copy the plot file, and I can view it fine by itself. I copy the plot and the html and I can view the page just fine offline, but galaxy doesn't want to render the image for some reason. What am I doing wrong? - Nik. -- Nikhil Joshi Bioinformatics Programmer UC Davis Genome Center Davis, CA

Auto delete dataset after workflow run?
by Praveen Raj Somarajan 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hello All, Is there a way to set "auto delete" some datafiles at the end of workflow run? I'm asking this because it is sometimes useful to delete some outputs (say intermediate files, .logs, etc), for example "auto delete" .sam file after executing sam-to-bam tool, which would free-up lot of space. This is especially useful when work with large number of samples. Look forward to any comments/suggestions.

Can't get automatic toolshed installation to work....
by Nikhil Joshi 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hi all, We just upgraded our local galaxy to the latest version and now I am trying to get automatic tool installation to work properly. I changed the universe_wsgi.ini file to enable the toolshed xml file, I created a "shed_tools" directory one above the galaxy install, and restarted galaxy. But when I try to install a repository, I get this error as a popup: "Initializing repository installation failed". I tried this with various repositories, but I get the same error. Then when I go to "Manage installed tool shed repositories", all of the repositories I tried to install are stuck in the "Cloning" state. Finally, if I try to uninstall any of them, I get this error, with a traceback: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith' Any ideas? - Nik. -- Nikhil Joshi Bioinformatics Analyst/Programmer UC Davis Bioinformatics Core http://bioinformatics.ucdavis.edu/ najoshi -at- ucdavis -dot- edu 530.752.2698 (w)

makeblastdb wrapper
by Espin, Almudena 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hi guys, I am writing a wrapper for makeblastdb. The problem is that Galaxy doesn’t support the blastdb data format, so this has to be added if a makeblastdb wrapper is to work properly. I have problems modifying the registry.py, Could anyone specify which changes have to be done? Thank you

Jobs are slow to start on my galaxy instance. Used to be much faster
by Anthonius deBoer 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Hi, Jobs that I start on my in-house Galaxy instance now take up to 3-4 min to go from queued to Running, even though there is nothing much going on on the galaxy server... I have been running this instance since June and use a relatively new version of Galaxy-central (Last update, 22-Aug changeset: 7535:bf6517b2b336) I have noticed that my jobs table in the galaxy Postgres database contains about 60,000 jobs... Could that be the culprit? Does it slow to the complete database to see if there are any jobs that need to run? Could I purge the jobs and related tables to speed up the submissions? Thanks, Thon

Column alignment in tabular display
by Peter Cock 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hello all, I'm curious about the logic used for column alignment when displaying tabular files (which for me was the headline feature of the last Galaxy Release - I'm very pleased to have this added at last). https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/issue/553 Quoting from templates/dataset/tabular_chunked.mako function renderCell(cell_contents, index, colspan){ if (colspan !== undefined){ return $('<td>').attr('colspan', colspan).addClass('stringalign').text(cell_contents); } else if (DATASET_TYPES[index] == 'str'){ /* Left align all str columns, right align the rest */ return $('<td>').addClass('stringalign').text(cell_contents);; } else{ return $('<td>').text(cell_contents); } } It seems to me that the logic should be right align all numeric columns, left align the rest. At very least, columns of type 'list' should also be left aligned. Otherwise you can easily have a situation where on clicking the "eye" you get an apparently empty dataset (unless you scroll right or down). This can easily happen with FASTA to tabular (default settings), where the descriptions have commas in them (common with annotation) thus the first column is considered to be a list (and the second column type str for the sequence). If some of the later sequences in the file have very long descriptions, right aligning the description column makes the dataset appear empty. I can provide a screen shot if it would help to explain, but here is my proposed patch. Regards, Peter -- $ hg diff templates/dataset/tabular_chunked.mako diff -r 8657ada96fca templates/dataset/tabular_chunked.mako --- a/templates/dataset/tabular_chunked.mako Fri Jun 15 16:05:48 2012 +0100 +++ b/templates/dataset/tabular_chunked.mako Mon Jun 18 16:23:44 2012 +0100 @@ -17,8 +17,8 @@ if (colspan !== undefined){ return $('<td>').attr('colspan', colspan).addClass('stringalign').text(cell_contents); } - else if (DATASET_TYPES[index] == 'str'){ - /* Left align all str columns, right align the rest */ + else if (DATASET_TYPES[index] == 'str' || DATASET_TYPES[index] == 'list'){ + /* Left align all str and list columns, right align the rest */ return $('<td>').addClass('stringalign').text(cell_contents);; } else{

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
