Hi Nate Thanks for your help. The issue was resolved I put detail here for reference to others. My RHEL username was not the owner of the folder where I was directed to install the software i.e. /opt/. As I am super user so I was running all commands using sudo. This method worked for Mercurial however I did not realize that running galaxy as sudo sh run.sh could read env from root. So I made myself the full owner of the folder and ran galaxy by issuing simple sh run.sh problem solved. Thanks.

In the meantime, you could use the egg packaging scripts on a system with an internet connection to fetch the eggs for you.

Hi Guys
I am trying to install Galaxy on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.7 (Tikanga). I have installed Python 2.6. Our server is behind a proxy that needs to be authenticated. I have set up the proxy for Mercurial as described in http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/hgrc.5#http-proxy
Now Mercurial is working and I have cloned the repository, however, when I issue sh run.sh command I get the following error. Though I have set the environment variable http_proxy by issuing export command on command line:
export HTTP_PROXY=UserName:MyUniPass@servername.edu.au:8080
I have also tried various export syntax such as:
export http_proxy=http://UserName:MyUniPass@ servername.edu.au:8080
I suspect Python is not reading the proxy setting to access internet. Help please.
Some eggs are out of date, attempting to fetch...
