I think I see the problem, the URL it's looking for is toolshedrepository/browse_valid_repositories<http://galaxy-dev.agresearch.co.nz/toolshedrepository/browse_valid_repositories> but it should be toolshed/repository/browse_valid_repositories<http://galaxy-dev.agresearch.co.nz/toolshedrepository/browse_valid_repositories> Was missing a trailing slash in the URL in tool_sheds_conf.xml :- ( --Russell From: galaxy-dev-bounces@lists.bx.psu.edu [mailto:galaxy-dev-bounces@lists.bx.psu.edu] On Behalf Of Smithies, Russell Sent: Monday, 23 July 2012 3:40 p.m. To: galaxy-dev@lists.bx.psu.edu Subject: [galaxy-dev] dns lookup failure and proxy errors from internal toolshed? I'm trying to setup an internal toolshed but am getting DNS and proxy errors: (I'm using port 8081 instead of 9009) The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. The proxy server could not handle the request GET /toolshedrepository/browse_valid_repositories<http://galaxy-dev.agresearch.co.nz/toolshedrepository/browse_valid_repositories>. Reason: DNS lookup failure for: localhost:8081repository I'm rewriting my URLs like this: RewriteRule ^/toolshed$ /toolshed/ [R] RewriteRule ^/toolshed/static/style/(.*) /var/lib/galaxy/static/june_2007_style/blue/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/toolshed/static/scripts/(.*) /var/lib/galaxy/static/scripts/packed/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/toolshed/static/(.*) /var/lib/galaxy/static/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/toolshed/favicon.ico /var/lib/galaxy/static/favicon.ico [L] RewriteRule ^/toolshed/robots.txt /var/lib/galaxy/static/robots.txt [L] RewriteRule ^/toolshed(.*) http://localhost:8081$1 [P] I think it might be an Apache problem but no idea hat to try next. Any ideas?
