Hello,
I've encountered a strange combination of factors that results in file access problems. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong - any advice will be appreciated.
I'm using Apache + XSendFile.
when viewing a strict BED file, everything works, because the actual dataset filename is passed on to Apache/XSendFile.
When viewing any other kind of interval file, Galaxy first creates a temporary file in strict BED format ( in "Interval::as_ucsc_display_file()" ). This method uses "tempfile.mkstemp()", which is documented to create a temporary file with user-only read/write access (no group or world access). So when the file name is passed on to apache/XsendFile - apache can't read the file and returns 404.
I'm wondering if anyone else encountered such problem, or is my configuration is somehow wrong.
Thanks, -gordon
