Stable usegalaxy.org links for main Tool Shed repositories?
by Peter Cock 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Hello all, Having asked this before, I knew the friendly and memorable alias http://usegalaxy.org/toolshed/ existed for the main Galaxy Tool Shed, http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu Currently tools there have a unique stable shareable URL like this: http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/devteam/ncbi_blast_plus (Due to the current frame based design, that redirects to a less pleasant URL) >From a little experimentation, the following style aliases also work: http://usegalaxy.org/toolshed/view/devteam/ncbi_blast_plus Is that deliberate? Can it be relied on, and are these style URLs actually preference? If so, could the Tool Shed be enhanced to allow a default stem for the URL (rather than the current host name) to show these URLs instead? (Personally I find the usegalaxy.org based URLs more presentable compared to toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu which feels less permanent.) Thanks, Peter

Run galaxy on a specific SGE queue
by Sarah Maman 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Hi everyone, Galaxy is set up on our cluster, and so far everything is working just fine. However, we'd like to change the submission queue from the default to a specific one. To do so, we tryed to set on the universe_wsgi.ini file the default_cluster_job_runner parameter as following: default_cluster_job_runner = drmaa://-q test.q -l mem=8G -l h_vmem=10G/ When doing so, an error occured telling us the job has been rejected because 2 queues were specified: the workq (default one) and the test.q. Should be the queue setting this way ? What are we doing wrong ? thanks for your help, Sarah -- Sarah Maman INRA - LGC - SIGENAE Chemin de Borde-Rouge - Auzeville - BP 52627 31326 Castanet-Tolosan cedex - FRANCE Tel: +33(0)5.61.28.57.08 Fax: +33(0)5.61.28.57.53

FW: order of menu items
by Stephanie LE GRAS 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Dear all, We have 2 different instances of Galaxy within our institute (a test and a production instance). The thing is that the two tool menus are not in the same order and we don't understand why because we've got the same configuration files on both instance. Test instance [cid:1A999B49-4E2D-4B03-A0C8-0F3E7459F730] Production instance: [cid:31D3C34C-1FF2-4ED9-8A0D-DF73DEE548A7] What could explain a difference in the order of the menu items? The thing is that I would like to get the NGS tools all together. Thank you in advance.

problem with current galaxy to submit job to drmaa/sge
by tin h 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Hello galaxy-dev gurus, I was trying to upgrade my galaxy server... I removed the old galaxy-dist and ran hg clone https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/ restored universe_wsgi.ini file and various tool-data config, and tried to restart galaxy. After some twiddling, I see the error message at the end of this email. The strangest thing I see is this /usr/prog/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/drmaa-0.4b3-py2.6.egg/drmaa/wrappers.py on my current system, drmaa-0.4b3-py2.6.egg is a file and not a directory... is the latest code that I just downloaded corrupted or something? Much thanks in advance for your help in this matter. -Tin PS.

Re: [galaxy-dev] [galaxy-user] List of genomes
by Jennifer Jackson 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Hello Yongde, The list of genomes is gathered from many sources and is comprehensive to facilitate external display functionality (at UCSC - main and microbial-, Ensembl, Wormbase, etc.). When assigning a dataset in a standard format to one of these sources, those available will appear as links within the dataset's box. Trackster (Galaxy's native visualization tool) is available to most common data formats, even in the absence of an assigned database, through the use of the Custom Reference Genome function (aka "Custom Build"). We think this is a great advantage, in particular for cases such as yours - since you don't have restrict yourself to external applications that happen to host your genome. Click on the link here and select "Trackster" to give it a test run: The Custom Reference Genome function is also intended to be used for smaller genomes such as this one when performing alignments and most other jobs - no pre-indexing of the genome is necessary. Simply load the genome in fasta format as a dataset and use it with tools, using a "reference genome from the history". The rational is that these are many, small, easily indexed during the course of job processing, and provides immediate access to genomes that are either newly published, or not widely used, or simply too numerous as a whole class for us to practically process in full and keep current. We have detailed help about how to use the Custom Reference Genome method, including troubleshooting help should you need it, although in practice you will likely find this to be fairly simple with 2-3 preparatory steps, depending on the source. Most if not all of these can be done within Galaxy. http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Support#Custom_reference_genome Hopefully this helps.

uploading large datasets into a new instance of Galaxy on a Mac Pro
by Elwood Linney 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Hello, I installed Galaxy on a new Mac Pro with 64gb of ram and a solid state first drive and 3 , 2tb normal drives. I can upload from my desktop a smaller file like a reference list or a cuffdiff file but when I try to load a 16gb fastq file it just does not load. Given that I have my files on the same computer that has Galaxy, and given that I am not well versed in unix, would anyone have a suggestion as to ways I could easily upload these large files. I would like to think I am just naive and that this has a simple solution. Hopefully this is the correct list to pose this question. Thank you for any help, el linney For those in the no, I did see this appear on the terminal after I tried to upload the file through the browser mechanism for upload: "Overflow Error: signed integer is greater than maximum"

Storage question for Galaxy-Admins
by Raj Ayyampalayam 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Hello, I am trying to come up with a number for our local galaxy storage requirements when we go live (This is an installation for research at our university). I checked out the survey that was done a while back for the GalaxyAdmins. It seems that the bigger installations have allocated about 200TB for their installation. It would be of great help to me if I can get some feedback on storage used by local galaxy installations. If possible please use the following format: Total capacity: Used capacity: Storage Technology: Comments: Thank you all very much. -Raj

"login to ftp server failed" or "Problem with ftp connexion to Galaxy"
by Danni Yu 31 May '13

31 May '13

To whom this may concern, This is Danni Yu, a Galaxy user starting to use Galaxy since 2011. I was able to upload large files through ftp in 2011 and 2012. Now, I am facing the same problem as the other users (such as Barbara Sixt on May 27, 2013 and Fabrice Besnard on May 22, 2013). The error message is "530 login incorrect". Ms. Jennifer Hillman-Jackson in Galaxy Support and Training team very kindly mentioned that "Please feel free to contact us for an update if this is still a problem by next Friday" on May 24, 2013. Since it is already Friday but the problem still exists, I am hoping to learn whether a solution has been provided. Thanks very much and Sincerely, Danni
