Hi Saba,

there is a syntax error in the line of the “#if”. Please add “:” at the end and report whether the error still occurs.

All the best, Jens

Betreff: [galaxy-dev] Running a different command based on selection in the tool

Hi all, 

I am trying to write a tool that based on user criteria will run a different script.

In the code below, If I select Use_Snapshot, I see the right interface but somehow galaxy tries to execute the #else part and look for “m” input parameter. The example I have seen in documentation is using the script with same name in both if and else and the number of input arguments is the same as well. Any suggestions/ideas why always #else part gets executed although right interface appears based on user selection. 

Thanks,

Saba

<command>

    #if $source.source_select==“Use_Snapshot"

        cM-snapshot.sh $input $output

    #else

        cM.sh $m $b $ns $w $s $z $output

    #end if

</command>
