pam login issue
by Sandra Maksimovic 28 May '20

28 May '20

Hi there, Galaxy newbie here. I have a brand new v20.01 instance but am having a problem getting user PAM based user logins to work correctly. The problem it seems to me has to do with the service not having sufficient permissions to create a 'new' user account folder because it wants to append our org's email suffix to the folder name instead of just detecting that the correctly named username folder without the suffix in fact already exists (mounted via NFS), and therefore does not need to be created. Note that this mechanism was previously working in v19.05. Here is the issue: galaxy.webapps.galaxy.controllers.user DEBUG 2020-04-30 16:25:49,481 [p:86293,w:1,m:0] [uWSGIWorker1Core0] trans.app.config.auth_config_file: /hpc/software/installed/galaxy/20.01/config/auth_conf.xml galaxy.auth.providers.pam_auth DEBUG 2020-04-30 16:25:49,482 [p:86293,w:1,m:0] [uWSGIWorker1Core0] use username: True use email False email None username sandra galaxy.auth.providers.pam_auth DEBUG 2020-04-30 16:25:49,482 [p:86293,w:1,m:0] [uWSGIWorker1Core0] PAM auth: will use external helper: False galaxy.auth.providers.pam_auth DEBUG 2020-04-30 16:25:49,868 [p:86293,w:1,m:0] [uWSGIWorker1Core0] PAM authentication successful for sandra galaxy.auth.util DEBUG 2020-04-30 16:25:49,873 [p:86293,w:1,m:0] [uWSGIWorker1Core0] Email: sandra(a)mcri.edu.au, auto-register with username: sandra galaxy.web.framework.decorators ERROR 2020-04-30 16:25:50,042 [p:86293,w:1,m:0] [uWSGIWorker1Core0] Uncaught exception in exposed API method: Traceback (most recent call last): File "lib/galaxy/web/framework/decorators.py", line 282, in decorator rval = func(self, trans, *args, **kwargs) File "lib/galaxy/webapps/galaxy/controllers/user.py", line 122, in login return self.__validate_login(trans, payload, **kwd) File "lib/galaxy/webapps/galaxy/controllers/user.py", line 147, in __validate_login message, user = self.__autoregistration(trans, login, password) File "lib/galaxy/webapps/galaxy/controllers/user.py", line 105, in __autoregistration trans.handle_user_login(user) File "lib/galaxy/web/framework/webapp.py", line 720, in handle_user_login self.user_checks(user) File "lib/galaxy/web/framework/webapp.py", line 665, in user_checks self.check_user_library_import_dir(user) File "lib/galaxy/web/framework/webapp.py", line 657, in check_user_library_import_dir safe_makedirs(os.path.join(self.app.config.user_library_import_dir, user.email)) File "lib/galaxy/util/path/__init__.py", line 114, in safe_makedirs makedirs(path) File "/hpc/software/installed/galaxy/20.01/.venv/lib64/python3.6/os.py", line 220, in makedirs mkdir(name, mode) PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/sandra(a)mcri.edu.au' Here is the auth_conf.xml: <?xml version="1.0"?> <auth> <authenticator> <type>PAM</type> <options> <auto-register>True</auto-register> <maildomain>mcri.edu.au</maildomain> <login-use-username>True</login-use-username> <pam-service>sshd</pam-service> </options> </authenticator> </auth> FYI in case it's relevant the server's sssd.conf has also been customised to drop the domain suffix. Any ideas? Is there perhaps some additional config in the v20.01 galaxy.yml that I've missed?

Upload bed files seems to be hung
by Jean Jasinski 27 May '20

27 May '20

I submitted 2 bed files for upload to Galaxy a couple of hours ago, and it shows "the job is waiting to run." I have never had an upload take so long. The status page said everything was working normally with no issues reported today. Is there an issue with the job queue or is the system just heavily loaded? Thanks, Jean Jasinski

Checkboxes issue (could not find an answer in the forum)
by fma＠intomics.com 22 May '20

22 May '20

Dear all, I am i the process to deploy a local instance of the galaxy server and all seems to work pretty ok. There is only one issue, so far, that is really puzzling me and that is "checkboxes". Can't seem to find a way to tick them! For example, I am trying to get the blast+ tool but there is no way I can get those options "visukaly" set. I can see that the flag is correctly raised when clicking the option, but the user cants see what was selected or not. Anyone had the same experience? Anyone has a solution to this? Here is a snippet of the code I could fish out. <div class="ui-option" data-original-title="" title=""> <input id="uid-767" type="radio" name="field-uid-765" value="blastp"> <label class="ui-options-label" for="uid-767">::before blastp - Traditional BLASTP to compare a protein query to a protein database</label></div> <div class="ui-option" data-original-title="" title=""> <input id="uid-768" type="radio" name="field-uid-765" value="blastp-fast"> <label class="ui-options-label" for="uid-768">::before blastp-fast - Use longer words for seeding, faster but less accurate</label></div> <div class="ui-option" data-original-title="" title=""><input id="uid-769" type="radio" name="field-uid-765" value="blastp-short"> <label class="ui-options-label" for="uid-769">::before blastp-short - BLASTP optimized for queries shorter than 30 residues</label> </div> </div> </div>

James Taylor Foundation
by Dave Clements 07 May '20

07 May '20

Hello all, The recent passing of Dr. James Taylor, the Ralph S. O’Connor Professor of Biology and Professor of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University, has left an enormous void in the field of computational biology. To help fill this void and continue James’ efforts, the Galaxy community has established a memorial foundation in James’ name. James believed that scientific progress can best be sustained through mentoring of students and junior faculty. The Junior Training and Educational Connections Hotspot (JTech) foundation will ensure implementation of this vision. To begin, JTech will (1) support graduate students to participate in computational biology and data science conferences, and (2) organize and host mentoring sessions between senior and junior faculty members at high-profile meetings. JTech will later expand its reach as a platform for academic mentorship including high school through college age students. To make this happen we are accepting contributions here https://galaxyproject.org/jxtx/. Please, help us continue what James has started. Thank you, Dave C on behalf of the Galaxy Community -- https://galaxyproject.org/
