Thanks, Greg I tried uploading the same tar ball without the tool_data_table_config.xml.sample file and the tools load fine (to troubleshoot I added only tools that actually do not depend on the file). As soon as I add the .sample file to the tar ball I get the error message.

Are you sure the problem is not with another file in the tarball? If you can send me the tarball, I'll take a look.

For upload into a repository I created a tool_data_table_config.xml.sample file with the corresponding table entry. The structure for the file I copied from the tool_data_table_config.xml. in the galaxy download. <tables> <!-- Start location of cgatools crr files --> <table name="cg_crr_files" comment_char="#"> <columns>value, dbkey, name, path</columns> <file path="tool-data/cg_crr_files.loc" /> </table> <!-- End Location of cgatools crr files --> </tables> When I upload the tar ball into the repository the tools won't load properly and I get the following message: not well-formed (invalid token): line 1, column 0 Any suggestions what I'm missing or how to fix this error?
