Dear colleagues,
I have been struggling with this issue for quite a while now, and I don't seem to find a solution (neither in situ nor in webo).
here it is:
Because of the confidentiality of our data, I have setup both a Galaxy server and a UCSC Genome Browser locally on my server. Both are run through Apache, using the same .htpasswd authentication method and file (ie: same usernmae/password combo for each).
Everything works great except that I do not seem to be able to send/receive data from Galaxy to UCSC and vice versa.
When I try to "get data" from UCSC main (my local instance), I get the followin error:
"Tool execution generated the following error message: The remote data source application may be off line, please try again later. Error: EOF when reading a line The tool produced the following additional output: Enter username for SG at 127.0.0.1:"
where SG is the AuthName in vhost.conf and 127.0.0.1 is UCSC's IP.
Whenever I try to to send data to UCSC ("Display at UCSC main" in the history boxes), I get this guy: "Expected 200 http://127.0.0.3/display_application/48916fac0de9a85d/ucsc_bigwig/main/b9ba5...:
401 Authorization Required"
Where 127.0.0.3 is galaxy's IP.
I have: - hardcoded username:passowrd on UCSC's "send to galaxy" routine but to no avail - hardcode username:passowrd on Galaxy's definiton of UCSC's "main" URL, but to no avail - I have removed UCSC authentication, and everything works fine - I have kept UCSC authentication and let Galaxy "open", doesn't work - I remove authentication to both servers, and it all works cool.
Somehow, Galaxy doesn't like to talk to a protected UCSC browser.
I'll be happy to post my vhost.conf files if needed.
Can anyone help, please?
Thanks a lot,
Fred
