Perhaps you know of other Galaxy groups who do this sort of thing? Hi Steve, Instead of 'Require valid-user' in your Apache config, you can use either of: Require user [userid...] or Require group [group-name...] Anyone not listed in the Require directive would be shown a 403 error by Apache, which you can customize to contain any information necessary to direct users how to get access (contacting you). --nate > > Many thanks > Steve > > > On 28 Jun 2011, at 19:31, Nate Coraor wrote: > > > Steve Thorn wrote: > >> Hello > >> > >> We would like to force users to register even when they successfully > >> pass through our University's single sign-on service (Apache + > >> cosign). > >> > >> We have: > >> > >> use_remote_user = True > >> allow_user_creation = False > >> > >> in the universe_wsgi.ini, but it appears that use_remote_user takes > >> precedence over allow_user_creation. > >> > >> Ideally, we'd like users who get through the single sign-on to be > >> presented with a message like "to use galaxy please register by > >> emailing someone(a)ed.ac.uk".

Refreshing/Reloading Files

Hello everyone, we have a problem with one of our selfwritten tools. We have a tool, that compares sequence with a database. The List of the available databases is loaded from a .txt file. One of our other tools, manages that a new database is added to the .txt file. But Galaxy doesn't recognize the change. It would be nice if someone could give us an advice. Best regards Paul K. Deuster @ Technische Hochschule Mittelhessen

postgresql connection error: could not connect to server: No such file or directory...
by W. Augustine Dunn III 29 Jun '11

29 Jun '11

Hello all: Please forgive me if this is a matter of RTFM but I can assure you that I have in fact TRIED that for a day or so now... I am trying to set up a local GALAXY site for my lab so that I can start to offload some of the work that comes my way as the sole biologist in our lab not afraid of the command line. My system is Ubuntu 10.10 64b, i7 quad, 12 GB RAM. Since Multiple people will be using the site I decided to go with the slightly more fancy postgresql db back-end rather than the sqlite default. I had things running fine with the sqlite but can NOT seem to get psql and galaxy to play nice. I have created a galaxy role with rights to make tables on a created "galaxy" database: galaxy@vlad 12:40:20 ~/galaxy-dist: psql psql (8.4.8) Type "help" for help. galaxy=> \l List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding | Collation | Ctype | Access privileges --------------+----------+----------+------------+------------+----------------------- galaxy | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.utf8 | en_US.utf8 | =Tc/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres : galaxy=CTc/postgres postgres | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.utf8 | en_US.utf8 | template0 | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.utf8 | en_US.utf8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres template1 | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.utf8 | en_US.utf8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres zabbix_proxy | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.utf8 | en_US.utf8 | (5 rows) I created a PGDATA file at /var/lib/postgresql/8.4/main/PGDATA and export a PGDATA envar upon loading of the galaxy user's .bashrc pointing to this place. I am able to start and stop the server with the postgres user using pg_ctl. Once its running, I change users back to galaxy and try to run run.sh and get the following traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/web/buildapp.py", line 82, in app_factory app = UniverseApplication( global_conf = global_conf, **kwargs ) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/app.py", line 32, in __init__ create_or_verify_database( db_url, kwargs.get( 'global_conf', {} ).get( '__file__', None ), self.config.database_engine_options ) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/model/migrate/check.py", line 54, in create_or_verify_database dataset_table = Table( "dataset", meta, autoload=True ) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/schema.py", line 108, in __call__ return type.__call__(self, name, metadata, *args, **kwargs) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/schema.py", line 236, in __init__ _bind_or_error(metadata).reflecttable(self, include_columns=include_columns) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 1261, in reflecttable conn = self.contextual_connect() File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/engine/threadlocal.py", line 194, in contextual_connect return self.session.get_connection(**kwargs) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/engine/threadlocal.py", line 20, in get_connection return self.engine.TLConnection(self, self.engine.pool.connect(), close_with_result=close_with_result) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 151, in connect agent = _ConnectionFairy(self) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 304, in __init__ rec = self._connection_record = pool.get() File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 161, in get return self.do_get() File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 639, in do_get con = self.create_connection() File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 122, in create_connection return _ConnectionRecord(self) File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 198, in __init__ self.connection = self.__connect() File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 261, in __connect connection = self.__pool._creator() File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.5.6_dev_r6498-py2.6.egg/sqlalchemy/engine/strategies.py", line 80, in connect raise exc.DBAPIError.instance(None, None, e) OperationalError: (OperationalError) could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

updating ToolsMultipleOutput wiki docs new additional datasets file format to include database part
by Leandro Hermida 29 Jun '11

29 Jun '11

Hi, In the last section of https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/ToolsMultipleOutput, "Number of output datasets cannot be determined until tool run", it should be updated that the new additional datasets file format actually has a sixth part at the end where you can set the database attribute of the output dataset: "%s_%s_%s_%s_%s_%s" % ( 'primary', output1.id, name, 'visible', file_type, database ) I accidentally discovered this even though I didn't want to set the database attribute because I have some custom datatypes defined and my datatype extension names have underscores in them :) which causes Galaxy to think that the part of my extension names string after the underscore is actually the database name i want to set. I would recommend not to put underscores in your custom datatype extension names :) -Leandro

Access tool information with mako.
by Michael Cotterell 29 Jun '11

29 Jun '11

Assuming I have the tool object (let's just call this "tool") available and am able to traverse it in mako, I know I can access its name by "tool.name" and id by "tool.id". However, how do I access the input and output parameters? I tried using "tool.inputs" and "tool.outputs" but the results didn't correspond to the actual input and output parameters for the tool. Thanks! -- Sincerely, Michael Cotterell mepcotterell(a)gmail.com mepcott(a)uga.edu P.S. - Check out ScalaTion (http://code.google.com/p/scalation/) a Domain-Specific Language for Modeling & Simulation. #blatantplug

input security validation
by Russell Bonneville 29 Jun '11

29 Jun '11

Hello all, I am Russell, a student working with Dr. Victor Jin at the Dept. of Biomedical Informatics, OSU Medical Center. I am developing a Galaxy wrapper for our ChIP-seq peak-calling program BELT (PMID: 21138948), and I have a question about input validation. Does Galaxy filter for malicious field entries (such as XSS attacks) or is this our wrapper's responsibility (the MACS wrapper appears to not perform any explicit checks)? Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Russell Bonneville

Re: [galaxy-dev] [galaxy-user] Configuring Galaxy Server

Hi Guarav, Since this question is regarding a local install, I've moved the thread to the galaxy-dev list. Please see responses inline below. gaurav thareja wrote: > Hi All, > > Thank you for last reply and links about galaxy structure. The links were > helpful.

Where all users information is stored in file structure so that i can > add custom users for my galaxy server? They are stored in the database, in a table called 'galaxy_user'. By default the database is a SQLite file: galaxy-dist/database/universe.sqlite We recommend using PostgreSQL, however. By default, users can create their own accounts, and anyone can use Galaxy anonymously. This behavior can be modified in galaxy-dist/universe_wsgi.ini with the 'allow_user_creation' and 'require_login' options. You can always register accounts via the 'Register' link under the 'User' tab at the top of the Galaxy interface. You can also create accounts as an administrator from the 'Admin' interface. Once you have created your own account in Galaxy, just set that email address in 'admin_users' in galaxy-dist/universe_wsgi.ini to enable the admin interface for your user. > 2.
