Hi Nate,

thanks a lot for your hints. I was finally able to fix the problem. Galaxy couldn’t find the .drmerr file because our

SGE installation merged .drmerr into .drmout... now everything works fine!

Cheers,

Sascha

Hi Sascha,

The error message you are getting is because the SGE job’s stdout and stderr files are not where Galaxy expects to find them.  The working directory will be output to the debug log prior to the job’s execution and should resemble:

    //

where:

    is the absolute path to the value of job_working_directory in universe_wsgi.ini
    is determined based on the job ID but is most likely ’000’ if you are just setting up a new server
    is the job’s ID as shown in the debug log

Upon job completion, this directory should contain files like .drmout and .drmerr.

Is it possible that your SGE installation is overriding the stdout/stderr paths, or that job_working_directory is not a shared filesystem?
