Update (and a post to both lists!) Nate pointed me to the real problem. https/http isn't a problem at bitbucket anymore. The issue is where you are installing (/etc) and write permissions. But, it is not recommended anyway. You will want to install in your home directory. To get there, type: prompt$ cd Just that will put you in your home. To see where this is on your system path, type this: prompt$ pwd To see what else is here, type: prompt$ ls A google for mac unix commands will bring up various basic help/tutorials and such as you need them. Hopefully this gets you going! Jen Galaxy team On 8/10/12 9:59 AM, Jennifer Jackson wrote:
Hi Edward,
Sorry, the "https" is probably also a problem. I thought about commenting about that before, but was wasn't sure about how much help you would need exactly or if you were logged into bitbucket or not. So please use this:
prompt$ hg clone http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist
If you ever need to clone again or update, the commands are in the News Brief summaries + top of each full report: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/DevNewsBriefs
** Note the "%" is used here to designate the terminal prompt. This is fairly common, so now that you know, you will be able to recognize it. Also look for the "$" and ">" characters to represent the prompt at the start of a shared command line in various documents (Galaxy or other). I'll just use "prompt$" right now to be clear.
For Mercurial, to confirm the install, you can type at the terminal prompt from anywhere:
prompt$ hg version prompt$ hg help
The "quick start" and "guide" at http://mercurial.selenic.com/ is a good place for basic hg commands. A web search will return plenty of other choices.
This is the last email in this thread I think we should send to both lists - from here forward let's just cc to galaxy-dev@bx.psu.edu for follow-up and leave the user list off - no need to post to both. The other question about MAC resource we can do the same with, once answered.
Best,

Hi Jen,
Yes, it is best to assume I know nothing about programming. I installed Mercurial, but don't know how to check that it was successful other than it said so. Removing % helped, but said I do not have permission:
Install Galaxy on Mac OS10.7 1. Open Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app 2. Check Python version by pasting in "python -V", no quotes, and hit return *response = Python 2.7.1* 3. Install Mercurial *Response = "Successful Installation" but I don't know how to check this * 4. Get Galaxy by pasting in "hg clone https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/", no quotes, and hit return *Response = warning: bitbucket.org <http://bitbucket.org> certificate with fingerprint 24:9c:45:8b:9c:aa:ba:55:4e:01:6d:58:ff:e4:28:7d:2a:14:ae:3b not verified (check hostfingerprints or web.cacerts config setting)* *destination directory: galaxy-dist* *abort: Permission denied: /private/etc/galaxy-dist*

Hi Edward -
This may sound very simple, but did the "%" get included in the command to do the download by mistake? You'll want to remove that from the command string run again (was used to note the terminal prompt, is not a part of the command). So, just this:
prompt$ hg clone https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/
I just tested the galaxy-dist repository and there are no issues at bitbucket (right now). So, otherwise the MAC install should be fine.
Maybe this helps?

Hi Edward
I am moving your e-mail to 'galaxy-dev' since it's about a local Galaxy instance.
I don't think there are any differences between installing Galaxy on Linux and Mac OS X. Hence you can follow the step-by-step instructions on the wiki (well, there are actually only two steps anyway...):
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Get%20Galaxy
WRT checking the python version:
just type 'python -V' on the command line, eg on my old MacBook:
bash-3.2$ python -V Python 2.5.1 bash-3.2$
Hope this helps Regards, Hans
Hello, Could someone provide instructions for installing galaxy on a Mac OS 10.7? The instructions provided by galaxy start off by asking me to check my
