To clear things up, I am using my own tool which uses samtools internally. I think I have tried the SAM-to-BAM tool when I was exploring Galaxy and I think it worked fine. By the way, I am using Perl.

Thanks for the tips! I'll get back here if something goes awry again.

I put a samtools_filter tool in the toolshed that uses samtools view command.   
I called the samtools view command from the command section of the tool_config and redirected stderr to stdout to avoid having galaxy interpret it as an error.

Hi there,

I know? Galaxy already has a SAM-to-BAM converter, but part of my
exercise/task is to incorporate a script that uses samtools' view command. I
get this error:

[samopen] SAM header is present: 66338 sequences.

according to Galaxy. But this might not be an error at all. Is? there any
way that I could tell Galaxy to ignore this and just continue with the
script?

Thanks in advance! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
