Hi,
Does anyone know of recent changes to display applications which might be causing this? Any directions to dig into would be appreciated. Thanks much, Davide, thanks for the pointer to that discussion. This was a big help to get me looking the right direction by staring at the
[bigWig display problems] headers.
The problem is due to adding 'string_as_bool' to the nginx configuration parameters in this changeset:
http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/changeset/70ac3aef6dab
I have no idea why I did that. ;)
All of the nginx paramters in universe_wsgi.ini are string values, not true/false like apache, so this results in paste serving out files instead of nginx. Paste and bigWig access don't play nicely together, resulting in the failure to display them. This four line fix will get things working again:

Thanks, committed back to galaxy-central.
This was a very useful thread! We are using Apache (rather than nginx) and setting XSendFile On andsetting XSendFilePath<path> in ssl.conf Also added "apache_xsendfile = True" in {web|job}_universe_wsgi.ini We can now view bigwig and bam files at UCSC. Thanks for all the useful comments. Steve
