Hi, 

Many thanks for the feedback. Sorry about missing some of the traceback, here is the full traceback:

MemoryError


We'll look again at the webpage for more clues. As for trying to reproduce it elsewhere, the data we are using here are all from Galaxy main which has run the jobs several times without a problem. So we're confident we are missing something at our end in the set up - presumably to do with memory usage by TopHat - any thoughts would be most welcome.

Best Wishes,
David.

David,

What is the full stack trace that you're seeing? The stack trace is the text below "Traceback" and identifies the exact location where the problem occurs. 

Are you following these guidelines:

http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/NGS%20Local%20Setup

 for setting up large genomes in Galaxy?

Also, it would be ideal if you could upload the problematic data--genome + reads--to our public instance (main.g2.bx.psu.edu) and see if you can reproduce the problem that you're seeing.

Thanks,
J.

Hi,

We seem to have sorted out the problem of TopHat failing to run but now we have a new problem. When TopHat runs with a large genome (but not with small genomes), it finishes the run fine and all the data is there but the web interface falls over about 8 hours into the run and when we try to access the web based interface we get a Proxy Error. When we restart it all looks fine. This is the sort of errors our HPC people find:

Do you have any suggestions for what is happening?


Best Wishes,
David.
