Hi Carrie Was the history which is causing troubles created before you switched to external authentication? Or has the user a slightly different e-mail address now? eg different use of capital letters, like 'foo.bar@home' and 'Foo.Bar@home' - we had such problems, when we switched to external authentication. I had to dig into our MySQL database and fix the "galaxy_user" table. In your case, I recommend looking at the "galaxy_user" table and check whether the user has more than one entry. Take the "id" (ie the number) and search the "history" table using the id as 'user_id'. I would guess you can fix your problem by changing the 'user_id' in the "history" table for the history which is causing troubles. BUT, BE VERY CAREFUL! you can do a lot of damage to the database. Switch off the galaxy server first, and MAKE a back up the database before you change anything. Regards, Hans-Rudolf On 03/11/2014 11:58 PM, Ganote, Carrie L wrote:
Hi List,
I just pulled and merged from galaxy-dist (I think it's dc067a95261d), updated my database, and migrated my tools. The issues I am able to see are minor, but I have a user who can no longer access a particular history. It apparently just hangs. If they delete the history, Galaxy responds, but it will hang again when they try to add back any datasets. Unfortunately, I don't see any errors in the paster logs about this. I fear that their dataset entries in the Postgresql db have been corrupted during the update, or perhaps the files themselves were purged. I cannot reproduce their issues with my own histories - I'm able to bring up saved histories and upload etc. I don't know if they can share a history if it can't be loaded. How should I troubleshoot this? I'm set up to authenticate through apache, which makes it harder to get in as the user and see what's up. Is there an easy way to find out what histories belong to what users? I can search the database?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
-Carrie
