Hi,


I have a similar - but not identical issue. The history panel is not being updated: I have to restart Galaxy to see the updated panel.
It appears only to happen after an error relating to the history API of Galaxy (it's a popup error, and I have closed it....).

My apache config (thanks for any hints and tweaks to improve my setup).

[galaxy@galaxy conf.d]$ cat galaxy_web.conf

Nate:

I used the config from the wiki directly…
<Location "/">
…
RequestHeader set REMOTE_USER %{AUTHENTICATE_sAMAccountName}e
...
</Location>

but I also had a section like this below it...

#       <Location "/api">
#               Satisfy Any
#               Allow from all
#       </Location>

I thought that the /api location would inherit the auth and headers stuff of it's container, but that's not true.

Commenting the api location fixes the problem form e.

Hi Brad and Sajoscha,

Is there any chance that your proxy configurations are not passing the username in the REMOTE_USER header when the request is to an /api path?  Could you provide the relevant portions of your proxy server configs?

Thanks,

Hi Sajoscha:

I have exactly the same problem… it started about a month ago.

Also with external ldap auth.

I have not yet investigated in detail, since it's not crippling - just annoying.

Hi list,

I have a weird problem after updating to the latest version.

After doing the update as usual, the history panel is not updating automatically anymore. And when I press refresh, I get an javascript popup saying:

Error getting history updates from the server.
Forbidden


Also, in the log I see the following:

galaxy.web.framework WARNING 2013-01-28 12:30:01,673 User logged in as '(null)' externally, but has a cookie as 'sauer@embl.de' invalidating session


We are using LDAP to connect to Galaxy, but I don't know if this has something to do with the problem. As I said, it was working perfectly fine before the update.

Does someone know the problem or has any ideas?

Thanks for your help,

Sajoscha
