Galaxy dev: I'm installing a local galaxy instance (Dec 4, 2012 vintage) and it is running well under mySQL, but I'm having trouble getting it to work with a postgres database. I've done the following to create the db and provide permissions: $ whoami galaxy $ createdb galaxy_prod4 $ psql galaxy_prod4 psql (8.4.13) Type "help" for help. galaxy_prod4=# CREATE ROLE galaxy_prod_role4 WITH PASSWORD 'milkweed'; CREATE ROLE galaxy_prod4=# GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE galaxy_prod4 to galaxy_prod_role4; GRANT galaxy_prod4=# ALTER ROLE galaxy_prod_role4 LOGIN; ALTER ROLE galaxy_prod4=# \du List of roles Role name | Attributes | Member of -------------------+--------------+----------- galaxy | Superuser | {} : Create role : Create DB galaxy_prod_role | Cannot login | {} galaxy_prod_role4 | | {} mydb_role | Cannot login | {} mydb_user | | {} postgres | Superuser | {} : Create role : Create DB galaxy_prod4=# \l List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding | Collation | Ctype | Access privileges --------------+----------+----------+-------------+-------------+------------------------------ galaxy_prod3 | galaxy | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | =Tc/galaxy : galaxy=CTc/galaxy : galaxy_prod_role=CTc/galaxy galaxy_prod4 | galaxy | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | =Tc/galaxy : galaxy=CTc/galaxy : galaxy_prod_role4=CTc/galaxy postgres | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | template0 | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres template1 | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres (5 rows) Looks promising, right? My universe_wsgi.ini has the following entry: database_connection = postgres:///galaxy_prod_role4:milkweed@127.0.0.1:5432/galaxy_prod4 and started the application, but it failed with: OperationalError: (OperationalError) FATAL: database "galaxy_prod_role4:milkweed@127.0.0.1<mailto:milkweed@127.0.0.1>:5432/galaxy_prod4" does not exist commenting the database_connection line out allows galaxy to start, using mySQL I presume. Any ideas? This is my first time configuring something like this. Thank you! Chris
