I am having trouble setting the dbkey of an output data set. The input and output, respectively, is shown below. I copied this from the bowtie_wrapper.xml  but the difference is that I do not have a condition on selecting the reference genome. My tool requires a .loc file. The tools completes correctly but the dbkey is not set. Any thoughts on what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks,

Ilya

<param name="input2" type="select" label="Select a reference genome">

       <options from_data_table="RNASEQ_contams">

          <filter type="sort_by" column="2" />

          <validator type="no_options" message="No indexes are available for the selected input dataset" />

       </options>

</param>

<data format="sam" name="output2" label="${tool.name} on ${on_string}:Output Sam File" />

      <actions>

       <action type="metadata" name="dbkey">

             <option type="from_data_table" name="RNASEQ_contams" column="1" offset="0">

                <filter type="param_value" column="0" value="#" compare="startswith" keep="False"/>

                <filter type="param_value" ref="input2" column="0"/>

             </option>

       </action>

      </actions>
