Hi,

I maybe found a bug or misunderstand something in the debugging/logging section of universal_wsgi.ini

I wanted to disable any logging and so commented everything within the logging section:

# ---- Logging and Debugging
      ------------------------------------------------

      

      # Verbosity of log messages

      #log_level = DEBUG

      

      # Log memory usage

      #log_memory_usage = False

      

      # Log events

      #log_events = True

      

      # Log user actions

      #log_actions = False

      

      # Configuration for debugging middleware

      #debug = True

      #use_lint = False

      

      # Interactive debugging - NEVER enable this on a public site

      #use_interactive = False

      

      # Write thread status periodically to 'heartbeat.log' (careful,
      uses disk space rapidly!)

      #use_heartbeat = False

      

      # Enable the memory debugging interface (careful, negatively
      impacts server performance)

      #use_memdump = False

      

      # Profiling middleware (cProfile based)

      #use_profile = False

When I then start Galaxy the complete History shows only "Internal Server Error" and the Galaxy Log:

Starting server in PID 5470.

After uncommenting everything in the logging section, galaxy works fine again. Whats the matter and how can I disable the debug messages, and especially:

192.168.3.90 - - [15/Jul/2010:17:29:23 +0200] "GET
      /root/tool_menu HTTP/1.1" 200 - "http://bioapp07/" "Mozilla/5.0

      Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Firefox/3.0.19"

I use Galaxy behind a Apache with NIS userauthentification.
