FTP page not viewable.
by Timothy Carr 23 Apr '14

23 Apr '14

Hi All, I've discovered a strange FTP related issue with Galaxy. All was working well until recently when I attempted to view files which I uploaded via FTP. The FTP page view was not being displayed and does not display the files in the Galaxy interface. No updates were applied. I've restarted Galaxy but unfortunately does not resolve the issue. Is there some of sort page cache in galaxy which needs to be cleared ? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Regards Tim

problem with bioc_qvalue, Version: 1.34.0
by Tony Kusalik 22 Apr '14

22 Apr '14

Hi, I am having a problem with updating our local Galaxy server, and I am hoping someone can help me. Yesterday I performed a 'hg incoming' command. A bunch of updates were applied, from changeset 12443:ec9d31a8bc04 to changeset 13068:c05752549163. I restarted the server (in daemon mode), but it halted. The content of paster.log instructed me to run sh ./scripts/migrate_tools/0010_tools.sh I did that. That script encountered an error: The following error occurred from the InstallManager while installing tool dependency bioc_qvalue : Error installing tool dependency package bioc_qvalue version 1.34.0: Unable to locate required tool shed repository named package_bioc_qvalue_1_34_0 owned by devteam with revision 11735242a19e. How do I get around this problem? I checked the mailing lists for anyone reporting a problem with "bioc_qvalue" or "11735242a19e" but nothing was turned up. Tony Kusalik

registration problem
by Wesley Schaal 22 Apr '14

22 Apr '14

Galaxy-Dev, I have a new galaxy installation under Linux. It's running as an Apache proxy (subdirectory) with authentication through galaxy (not apache). When trying to register a new user (which will be the administrator), the registration page declare success ("Now logged in as foo") but I am still just an anonymous user. If I try to login, it appears to succeed but I'm still anonymous. If I purposely enter the wrong password, the system complains as it should but I never get proper credentials. If I take away the Apache proxy configuration and run on the internal server, the problem goes away: I can login as expected and get the correct environment. The error is clearly here but I feel like I've followed the procedure written on the wiki. Specifically, Apache ----------- RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/galaxy$ /galaxy/ [R] RewriteRule ^/galaxy(.*) http://localhost:8082$1 [P] # 8080 and 8081 are busy Galaxy --------- [filter:proxy-prefix] use = egg:PasteDeploy#prefix prefix = /galaxy [app:main] filter-with = proxy-prefix cookie_path = /galaxy Any idea of what might be wrong? Don't know if it matters but I'm using a MySQL database. I can see new users and it seems to work well enough to complain when bad passwords are entered. -- Wes

double check for "EMS Variant Density Mapping"
by Wang, Xiaofei 22 Apr '14

22 Apr '14

Dear folks, Could you help me double check if my understanding is correct for EMS density mapping? For the tool "CloudMap: EMS Variant Density Mapping", it does not work for other species except C.elegans, correct? For the workflow "CloudMap EMS Variant Density Mapping workflow (takes VCF of heterozygous and homozygous variants to subtract)" in published workflows, the final step is to plot the VCF output using the tool "CloudMap: EMS Variant Density Mapping". If I want to use this workflow on other species, I need to remove this tool/step from the workflow by edit it. If I do not remove this step, there is nothing in the output of "EMS Variant Density plot" even the color is green for this step in the history, right? Thanks a lot! Best, Xiaofei

(OperationalError) no such column: history_dataset_association.extended_metadata_id
by Peter Cock 22 Apr '14

22 Apr '14

Hi all, Earlier today I updated my development server, which uses SQLite, and ran the update schema script (now at v118). With hindsight there could have been a warning that I missed - because afterwards despite updating to the galaxy-central tip, trying to use any of the tools failed with an SQL error: OperationalError: (OperationalError) no such column: history_dataset_association.extended_metadata_id u'SELECT history_dataset_association.id AS history_dataset_association_id, ... $ ./manage_db.sh db_version 118 $ ./manage_db.sh version 118 Attempting a downgrade/upgrade suggested I had a stale migration_tmp table blocking this, Since this is only a development instance, I removed the SQLite database (and the old data files) to allow a clean regeneration: $ ./run.sh ... galaxy.model.migrate.check INFO 2014-02-18 13:25:52,248 Migrating 117 -> 118... galaxy.model.migrate.check INFO 2014-02-18 13:25:54,176 galaxy.model.migrate.check INFO 2014-02-18 13:25:54,177 Add link from history_dataset_association to the extended_metadata table galaxy.model.migrate.check INFO 2014-02-18 13:25:54,177 galaxy.model.migrate.check INFO 2014-02-18 13:25:54,177 migrate.versioning.repository DEBUG 2014-02-18 13:25:54,206 Loading repository lib/tool_shed/galaxy_install/migrate... ... This fixed the history_dataset_association.extended_metadata_id error - so is the most likely explanation a failed schema update? Might a stale migration_tmp table have been to blame? Thanks, Peter

Re: [galaxy-dev] Migrate user data to a new server
by Derek Benson 21 Apr '14

21 Apr '14

Hi Simon I too have been down the long and fruitless task of searching for details about how to migrate a public (or not so public) galaxy server to a completely new host. In the end, I made some assumptions, strapped on my jodhpurs and spurs and dived in. Now I don't know whether what I've done is supported or encouraged by the galaxy team, or if its even the right way of doing this but after completing the steps below I was met with great success. 0. Assume that there is an old server running galaxy, and a brand new server running galaxy. 1. Stop Galaxy processes and Postgresql databases on old and new server. 2. To get the user data rsync /mnt/galaxy/files from old server to new server (assuming your galaxy instance is under /mnt/galaxy) 3. To get the database: a) remove the directory /mnt/galaxy/db on the new server (again assuming /mnt/galaxy is the path to your galaxy instance) b) Rsync the database files from the old server's /mnt/galaxy/db to the new server. 5. Update the database on the new server. I'm using cloudman to run a virtual instance of a galaxy server, and so I used cloudman to update the database. a) Attempt to start galaxy through cloudman (in my case this failed if I waited too long) b) Wait a second or 2, and then ask cloudman to update the database (this shutsdown galaxy and updates the database and then restarts galaxy). There is a command line script you can run that comes with galaxy and which can be used to update the database manually. If you attempt to start the galaxy process and the database is an older version the log files will contain a message about how to run this. You're done. Derek PS.
