External User Authenticaion
by Ryan G 13 Oct '15

13 Oct '15

Hi all - I'm trying to use external user authentication with Galaxy. The external authentication passes to Galaxy the username with the mail domain at HTTP_USER. In galaxy.ini, I enable: use_remote_user = True When I try to access Galaxy, I get the message: Galaxy is configured to authenticate users via an external method (such as HTTP authentication in Apache), but a username was not provided by the upstream (proxy) server. This is generally due to a misconfiguration in the upstream server. But nothing in paster.log indicating what the error is. How do I track this down?

Hi All, Has anyone got a working example tool_dependencies.xml to install the Cairo package into R. (I actually need a package that depends on R Cairo but the current issue is Cairo) I am having the cairo.h not found issue I have cloned https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/devteam/package_cairo_1_12_14/b39299b4b… (and its dependencies) As well as https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/iuc/package_r_3_1_2/9f2fddb9d6e2 I am trying to use <action type="setup_r_environment"> But can not get the package_cairo to be seen by the R I have tried <action type="set_environment_for_install"> both inside and outside of the setup_r_environment but it does not appear to be working, Full attempted tool_dependencies.xml attached, Thanks in advance Christian University of Manchester

updated eggs needed for OS X El Capitan compatibility
by Wolfgang Maier 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Hi, today, there was a complaint on the Galaxy Biostar forum that Galaxy fails to start under the new OS X El Capitan (https://biostar.usegalaxy.org/p/14492/) I had noticed this last week already, and that post prompted me to investigate the problem in more detail. The result (now checked on our own Galaxy instance) is that compatibility with El Capitan requires updates to two eggs - amqp and kombu - in the sense that, at least, you can start Galaxy after fixing these two. I haven't checked to see if there are additional run time problems. Hope that information helps, Wolfgang

Get the working directory within the ncbi_blastp_wrapper.xml file
by Ryan Johnson 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Hello all, We are setting up a galaxy instance that will submit jobs to our cluster. We could not get pbs_python to work so we have added all PBS logic to the cheetah template wrapper ncbi_blastp_wrapper.xml. Currently, all jobs are running out of the home directory. We want to add logic to the wrapper which will get the working directory from the JobWrapper class and then change to that directory and run from there. Can anyone help us to access the JobWrapper.working_underscore value? Or suggest a better way to do this? Thank you very much, Ryan -- Ryan S.

Workflow 'Input Dataset' Ressolution Issue
by Marco Albuquerque 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Hello Galaxy Dev, Consider the workflow found in 'Strelka_Workflow_Sequential' image Here it is in a different view 'Strelka_Sequential_Workflow_Different_View' Notice That the first input dataset links to the fetch_interval tool and the first preprocess tool. And the second input dataset links only to the second preprocess tool. When you run the workflow, what actually happens is the first input dataset goes to the fetch_interval tools and the second input dataset goes to both preprocessing tools. (Look at final two images). They have essentially executed the same tool twice. Where it should be an execution with a normal file and an execution with a tumour file. Why is this happening? What can I do to fix this? Thanks, Marco Albuquerque

Question about using dynamic options and refresh_on_change for rendering 2 associated select lists
by Greg Von Kuster 09 Oct '15

09 Oct '15

Hello all, I’m working on adding support to the Galaxy framework for datatypes in the constructive solid geometry (CSG) space and I have several working Galaxy tools and a visualization plugin that deal with 3d shapes in this environment. All of this work will soon be contributed to open source. For one of the tools, I need to provide 2 select lists on the tool form that are associated in such a way that when an option in select list 1 is chosen, the options in select list 2 are altered and re-rendered. This behavior would probably use a combination of dynamic options and refresh_on_change between the 2 associated select lists. I’ve not seen a tool that does this precisely, so I’m hoping that if it is currently possible to do this within Galaxy tools, someone will point me to an example. If it is not currently possible, I will contribute a PR for supporting it, but would like some input as to how it should be done. Dynamic options are currently rendered using 4 approaches; from_file, from_dataset, from_parameter and from_data_table. One or more of several filters can then be applied to the options to alter them if desired. Since these CSG tools involve new datatypes, I have flexibility into how the metadata elements are set up that are needed to render these 2 select lists. A dictionary may work where the metadata element contents look like this: {a: [‘1’, ‘2’], b: [‘3’, ‘4’] } The options in select list 1 would be ‘a’ and ‘b’. When ‘a’ is selected, select list 2 would have options ‘1’ and ‘2’, and when ‘b’ is selected, select list 2 would have options ‘3’ and ‘4’. To support this approach, perhaps dynamic options could be enhanced to include a from_dict option. There would be some complxity involved in associating the lists using refresh_on_change so that select list 2 is refreshed with the correct options when select list one is changed. I haven’t yet worked out these details. Also, using a dictionary will not keep order for the options, so perhaps a list of tuples would be better? [ [ ‘a’, [‘1’, ‘2’]], [‘b’, [‘3’, ‘4’]]] Can someone let me know if this is currently possible, and if so, an example tool that does it? If it’s not possible, does the above approach seem reasonable, or is there a better way?

Re: [galaxy-dev] Puzzling error in program using Bioblend
by mark fernandes (IFR) 09 Oct '15

And it’s Nicola for the win…! I deleted the two tabular files and re-uploaded them and my code works! ☺ Following on from this does this error state happen very often or have I just been unlucky? If the former is true, any suggestions on how best to trap it and report back to user to fix? Thanks Nicola. I was beginning to wonder if I had blundered in my Python.

Is there an issue with '<source_directory>.</source_directory>' (in 126 and 136) vs '<source_directory>picard-tools-1.56</source_directory>'? I changed this in my local xml but it had no effect. Any ideas? Sven

User API keys with External (LDAP) authentication disabled?
by Ryan G 09 Oct '15

09 Oct '15

Hi all - I have external authentication established with our enterprise wide LDAP working with Galaxy. I just noticed that I can no longer manage API keys for users from the Admin Page -> API Keys. I get "Access to Galaxy user controls is disabled. User controls are disabled when Galaxy is configured for external authentication" We basically have a 'nobody' user in Galaxy that populates the Data Library with new data from a proprietary system. We were using a user's API key (mine) to do this but want to switch over to a daemon style user key. In order to do so, I need to generate an API key for the dummy user. Is there no way to get API keys from the Admin interface with external authentication?
