Good evening all, I am seeing the following issue when attempting to start galaxy. Traceback (most recent call last): File "./scripts/paster.py", line 34, in <module> command.run() File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/command.py", line 84, in run invoke(command, command_name, options, args[1:]) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/command.py", line 123, in invoke exit_code = runner.run(args) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/command.py", line 218, in run result = self.command() File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/serve.py", line 276, in command relative_to=base, global_conf=vars) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/serve.py", line 313, in loadapp **kw) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 204, in loadapp return loadobj(APP, uri, name=name, **kw) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 224, in loadobj global_conf=global_conf) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 248, in loadcontext global_conf=global_conf) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 278, in _loadconfig return loader.get_context(object_type, name, global_conf) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 413, in get_context section) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 458, in _context_from_explicit value = import_string(found_expr) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 18, in import_string return pkg_resources.EntryPoint.parse("x="+s).load(False) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/lib/pkg_resources.py", line 1954, in load entry = __import__(self.module_name, globals(),globals(), ['__name__']) File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/web/buildapp.py", line 19, in <module> from galaxy import config, jobs, util, tools File "/home/home/galaxy/software/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/jobs/__init__.py", line 4, in <module> from galaxy import util, model EOFError: EOF read where object expected Removing PID file paster.pid Would this suggest that the eggs are bad?
