I just checked,

Using the User->Register menu works,  however we require our users to log in so when they go to galaxy.jax.org they are redirected to a login page if they are not already logged in.  That page has the text "This installation of Galaxy has been configured such that only users who are logged in may use it. If you don't already have an account, you may create one."  , and "you may create one" links to http://galaxy.jax.org/user/create.  clicking on the link results in the error.

Hello Dave,

Can you clarify how your users are accessing the following URL


I originally assumed they were using the Galaxy UI to register by clicking the "Register" link on the "User" popup menu.  However, perhaps they are just pointing their browser to the URL.  Is this the case?  If so, why are you not clicking on the menu link?  

If it is the case that your users are entering the address in their browsers rather than using the normal Galaxy UI, then the address should include an additional request param as is shown here:

We do not use the "template_cache_path" in our config.  I deleted all the
files in ~/database/compiled_templates and restarted my server.  I still get
the error (even with a shift reload of my browser).  I've tried it (on the
Mac) with Firefox 3.5.2, Safari 5.0.5 and Google Chrome 11.0.696.71

We run two totally separate instances of Galaxy, on different virtual
machines.  One for testing, development of tools and deploying new versions
of galaxy, and one for production, where our scientists do their analysis.
Each of these servers run 4 instances of the "galaxy process".  3 Web
applications and 1 job runner.

We get the error on both servers, but I'm doing all of this troubleshooting
on our development server.

This behavior is occuring for any user who tries to create a new galaxy
account (so the original user who reported the problem, and myself as I test
it.  I can ask others to try if you think that will help).

I mentioned the browsers I've tried it with above.  I've not tried it from a
windows box, but can, again, if you think that will help.

We are running whatever version of galaxy-dist was available about a week
and a half ago, which is when Glen did the upgrade.

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave,

If you do not have a template_cache_path config setting in universe_wsgi.ini,
then your cached templates are stored in the default directory of
~/database/compiled_templates.

Deleting your cached templates in ~/database/compiled_templates should have
corrected the problem, assuming there are no other issues within your Galaxy
environment, so let's begin down the path of determining the cause.

You mention your "development server" in your response.  Are you running only
1 Galaxy instance, or more than 1?

Is the behavior occurring for all of your users or just a few?  Does it occur
with different browsers, or is it related to a certain browser brand?

What version of Galaxy are your running?

Thanks Dave,

Greg,

We've tried just reloading the browser and that didn't do anything.

As for deleting the cached templates, on our development server I tried
deleting everything under the database/compiled_templates directory (I even
restarted my server) and it appeared to have no affect.  We still get the
error message.  Maybe I misunderstood you.

The only cache related variable in my universe_wsgi files is
"static_cache_time = 360".

Thanks,

Dave

Hello Dave,

The index method signature of the user controller changed, so this is a
template cache issue.  It may work to simply have your users refresh their
Galaxy masthead ( the top menu banner that includes the login in the User
pop-up ).  

However, sometimes this isn't enough to clear the cache, so you can fix
things
for sure by deleting the cached templates in
~//database/compiled_templates/user assuming you have not changed the
setting
for the template cache in your universe_wsgi.ini file.  If you have, delete
the files in the user directory where you have them stored.

We upgraded our Galaxy instance to the current Dist build at the end of
last
week.   Since then we've had a couple new users attempt to create accounts.
When they go to the create user page (http://galaxy.jax.org/user/create)
they get a 500 Server Error.

The message in the error log is:
10.30.34.254 - - [24/May/2011:15:54:24 -0400] "GET /user/create HTTP/1.0"
500 - "http://galaxy/user/login" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X

Error - <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: create() takes at least 3 arguments
(2 given)


Glen is traveling to the Galaxy Community Conference, he's the one that did
the upgrade, but as far as I know, he did a pretty straight forward
upgrade.

Did something change, in configuration of the create user page?

Any thoughts what might be causing this?

Thanks,

Dave
