Running jobs as real user and extra_file_path
by Louise-Amélie Schmitt 28 Apr '17

Hi everyone, I just wanted to ask how the extra_file_path is handled in case of job running as the real user since the file_path is only writable by the galaxy user. Any clue? Thanks, L-A

Python ValueError: too many values to unpack

Hi all, I’m trying to develop a tool that lets you select a file on the server. I’m using the dynamic_options setting to let Galaxy render a dropdown list of available file. However, when I try to test the tool in its current form, I get the following error: <pre> galaxy.web.framework.decorators ERROR 2016-01-26 13:08:35,649 Uncaught exception in exposed API method: Traceback (most recent call last): File "lib/galaxy/web/framework/decorators.py", line 260, in decorator rval = func( self, trans, *args, **kwargs) File "lib/galaxy/webapps/galaxy/api/tools.py", line 98, in build return tool.to_json(trans, kwd.get('inputs', kwd)) File "lib/galaxy/tools/__init__.py", line 2602, in to_json populate_state(trans, self.inputs, state_inputs, state_errors, params.__dict__) File "lib/galaxy/tools/__init__.py", line 2471, in populate_state state[input.name] = input.get_initial_value(trans, context, history=history) File "lib/galaxy/tools/parameters/basic.py", line 984, in get_initial_value value = [ optval for _, optval, selected in options if selected ] ValueError: too many values to unpack </pre> My tool xml looks like this: <pre> <tool id="archivetolibrary" name="Copy files" version="0.1.0"> <description>from the archive to a data library</description> <code file="list_files.py"/> <command interpreter="bash"> test.sh > $log </command> <inputs> <param name="archive_source" type="select" display="radio" label="Choose source archive"> <options from_file="archives.loc"> <column name="name" index="0"/> <column name="value" index="1"/> </options> </param> <param name="query" type="text" label="Search for files"/> <param name="selected_file" type="select" label="Choose your file" dynamic_options="list_files(archive_source,query)"/> </inputs> <outputs> <data name="log" format="txt" label="${tool.name} on ${on_string}"></data> </outputs> <tests> <test> </test> </tests> <help> This tool copies data from and archive folder to your history.

I’m tracking Galaxy release 15.10, running on a Ubuntu 14.04.3 server Thanks for your help! Matthias

Re: [galaxy-dev] how to create users through Galaxy API?
by Martin Čech 02 Sep '16

02 Sep '16

Hi, you specify username, password and email in the body (payload) of the POST as Key:Value pairs. Code from the API method: ( https://galaxy-central.readthedocs.org/en/latest/_modules/galaxy/webapps/ga…) username = payload[ 'username' ] email = payload[ 'email' ] password = payload[ 'password' ] There are also other conditions that need to be fulfilled (e.g. user creation has to be turned on in the configuration) - you will find these when you look at the source code of the method (because the documentation is not perfect yet, sorry).

tabular file displayed without tabs
by Ryan G 22 Jun '16

22 Jun '16

Hi - I have a tools that generates a tab-delimited text file as output. when I click the eye icon to view the data, all the fields are compressed as if there were no tabs. If I expand the history view, the little preview window shows the contents as tabbed. I've verified that the spaces are indeed '\t' tab characters. Why would Galaxy not display this file as a tab-delimited file?

not sure what I can do about this...
by Fernandez Edgar 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

Hello Gents, So someone asked me to install the package Prokka on Galaxy. I did and everything went well! However, the following error comes up, when they try to work with Prokka: Fatal error: Exit code 2 () [tbl2asn] This copy of tbl2asn is more than a year old. Please download the current version. [20:20:53] Could not run command: tbl2asn -V b -a r10k -l paired-ends -M n -N 1 -y 'Annotated using prokka 1.10 from http://www.vicbioinformatics.com' -Z outdir\/prokka\.err -i outdir\/prokka\.fsa 2> /dev/null According to a google search, there is very little on this error. And it has been around for a while but I didn't find a posted solution. Any suggestions?

How to replace 'BioMart Central server' in the "Get Data" tools ?
by Hans-Rudolf Hotz 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

Hi As you probably know, the central BioMart server is currently unavailable (see: http://www.biomart.org/notice.html) Hence, the "Get Data -> BioMart Central server" tool in our local Galaxy installation does not work anymore - well, this is also the case on usegalaxy.org. We can easily switch the tool to point to a different Mart server, i.e.: Change: <inputs action="http://www.biomart.org/biomart/martview" .... to: <inputs action="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/uniprot/biomart/martview" .... However, we would like to switch to the ensembl Mart server: http://www.ensembl.org/biomart/martview It looks like the ensembl Mart server is nowadays embedded in the ensembl web site, and the requests are not send to Galaxy, but end up on the ensembl web page, where they cause a "Error 404 - Page not found". Unfortunately, I am not that savvy about the inner works of the ensembl web site anymore ;) Has anyone else looked into this problem and found already a solution? Thank you very much for any help Hans-Rudolf

atlas 3.10 IUC error
by Olivier CLAUDE 03 Jun '16

03 Jun '16

Hello again, I am truly sorry to bother everyone again but i still experience problems: This time with atlas 3.10 owned by iuc At the beginning without modifying anything, the error log was saying " mkdir : cannot create directory ATLAS/build : No such file or directory" After that I tried to modify the tool_dependencies.xml : L48 : "mkdir ATLAS/build &&" changed to "mkdir build &&" The error is "/bin/sh: 4 : cannot open /host/static_full_blas_lapack.diff: No such file" I can see it, if I go with a web browser, but I cannot download it manually nor click on it without crashing the web browser. Any idea? Thanks again, M Olivier CLAUDE- PhD Student INSERM/UPMC UMRS ICAN 1166 – Equipe 2 Faculté de médecine Pitié-Salpêtrière 91, bld de l'Hôpital - 3ème étage - Porte 305 75013 Paris - FRANCE

Galaxy tools for docking protein-compounds.
by Léo Biscassi 15 Mar '16

15 Mar '16

Hi folks, I've been developing Galaxy tools for docking protein-compounds. My docking program is Autodock Vina. In [1] is my repository. I'm writing here for two purpose: 1) Is there someone working in this way? I've found the project [2]. 2) I would like to share these tools to Galaxy project. Are they welcome for Galaxy project? Let me know the best practices for developing tools to be shared in Galaxy project. [1] https://github.com/leobiscassi/galaxy_tools [2] https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/ Thanks for any help.

external_chown_script.py and the local job runner

However, we would like to have some jobs (like the upload tool) configured to run on the Galaxy server itself - and the easiest way to do that is via the local job runner. We tried both the "upload1" and "Convert characters1" tools. These jobs would start and seem to run, but then fail with a file permission error (I don't have a stack trace to hand). From watching the Galaxy terminal output from run.sh we could see external_chown_script.py being called. As a test, when we disabled the external_chown_script setting in config/galaxy.ini then the local jobs would work. When using the local job runner, does Galaxy run the child process as the Galaxy user (my guess - no chown needed), or as the job owner's Linux account (calling chown would be needed)? Thanks, Peter
