History will not load
by Maria Hoffman 22 Sep '13

Hello, I have been having trouble with Galaxy since yesterday. I have been trying to run cuffdiff which has been waiting to run since Friday afternoon and now my history will not even load (red error message shows up). Any incite would be much appreciated. Maria

Hello, Galaxy will not load my histories and as a result I can not run the analysis that I need to run. I have tried repeatedly since 7:00 AM EST to load them with no luck. I worked on this history yesterday and everything was fine. Maria

datacache & bowtie2 for mm9 ?
by Curtis Hendrickson (Campus) 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Folks, First, I wanted to thank you for making the datacache available (http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Data%20Integration; rsync://datacache.g2.bx.psu.edu) It's a great resource. However, what is the best way to stay abreast of changes to what's in datacache, and understand how these indexes are computed? We are currently upgrading to bowtie2, but I notice that the bowtie2 indices for mm9, which used to be in rsync://datacache.g2.bx.psu.edu/indexes/mm9/mm9*/bowtie2_index have been removed, and only the hg19 genome has bowtie2 indices. Why only that one, and not the others? Where are the scripts you use to make these indices, in case I want to create bowtie2 indices for other So, how do I find out *why* they were removed? (Can I safely use the copy I have, or was there a problem with them?) More generally, how do I understand the policies and logic behind the datacache indices, and be notified of changes, short of running my own periodic rsync/diff? Finally, since I'm doing "reproducible research" is anything planned for systematically versioning genome indices, so I can easily tell what version of a system (ie, what BWA version) was used to create the index, and be sure that an index will not suddenly disappear. Thanks, Curtis Research Associate/CTSA-Informatics Team University of Alabama at Birmingham

Using tool_dependencies.xml files directly via Galaxy API
by Peter Cock 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Hello all, I'm looking at how to automatically script setting up a Galaxy instance with selected tools with dependencies as part of automated testing [*]. Can the Galaxy API be used to run the dependency instructions in a tool_dependencies.xml file (without using a Tool Shed)? Or more generally, can the Galaxy API be used to install a Tool Shed package from disk (i.e. point it at the files which would normally be uploaded to a Tool Shed)? Or, for an automated installation of local tools must I first setup a local Tool Shed and upload the tools there? Thanks, Peter [*] I'm using the TravisCI system for automated testing of my Galaxy tools now hosted on GitHub, which works by running the tests on a clean virtual machine: http://blastedbio.blogspot.com/2013/09/using-travis-ci-for-testing-galaxy-t… This means I need to automate the installation of Galaxy (easy), the tools I wish to test and their dependencies. This configuration would be less effort (and a more useful test) if it could mimic tool and dependency installation from the Tool Shed by reading my dependency XML files.

Towards Galaxy Linux (not) ? [was [RFC] Storing of tarballs and patches for tool_dependencies to enable reproducibility]
by Guest, Simon 19 Sep '13

19 Sep '13

Hi Bjoern, I can see man years of effort being spent on solving this problem within Galaxy. I was going to title this email "Danger, Will Robinson", but I didn't want to be disrespectful. I think the path being embarked upon, tool dependency packaging, tool versioning, reproducibility, and long term archive of source tarballs is going to lead inevitably to creation of a new Linux distribution, which I guess will be called Galaxy Linux. The packaging and archival you are talking about is exactly the service provided by a Linux distribution. There's well established infrastructure to handle this, and years of experience have gone into solving the problems well. Surely the number of Linux distributions in the world now exceeds 100, but I don't see that the world will become a better place if we increase that number by one more. We at AgResearch can't be alone in having to pick a Linux distribution to run from the short list supported by our hardware vendor. I can't see Galaxy Linux being on that list anytime soon. So we have to make Galaxy run on the particular distribution we have here. For us that's CentOS 6. Now, I see scary mention of platform independence as a goal for Galaxy packaging, which I interpret as "will run on any Linux distribution". I think that's essentially infeasible. All you can do is write install scripts which you hope are portable (by following as many best practices as you know about), and then work patiently with users on strange platforms, to adapt each install script to work on that platform also. I think this is not a good use of anyone's time. How many Linux distributions do the Galaxy community actually care about today? The RHEL family is surely important, as is Ubuntu LTS. Anything else? I'd be quite interested to understand this, as it provides a context for the discussion, and ensures we're not just solving a hypothetical problem. I'm just starting work on a native packaging infrastructure for Galaxy, that will enable tool dependencies to use defined versions of natively installed packages. That frees me up to make my packages work nicely on the RHEL family. It looks like the RPMs themselves (including SRPMs obviously) will be hosted by the CentOS project before too long. Once they're there, they can easily be archived forever. Anyone else on that platform is welcome to use the same infrastructure. Then, all we really need is someone to handle the packaging effort for the other major Linux distributions (a small number, I hope), and the problem is essentially solved. Getting the Bio-Linux team interested in multi-version packaging would be a great next step. I'll be posting here when I have progress to report on my native packaging effort. cheers, Simon ======================================================================= Attention: The information contained in this message and/or attachments from AgResearch Limited is intended only for the persons or entities to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
