Ahh.. Just realized that the installation to local galaxy is done from the web runner interface...under "search and browse toolsheds"...forgotten about that one! :) On Tue, Sep 4, 2012 at 2:13 PM, Ivan Lovric <ivan@genome.edu.au> wrote:
Hi there,
I've been having some trouble with the Tool Shed recently. This image from the ToolShed wiki http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Tool%20Shed?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=user_register.png Suggests that there is a "Browse all repositories" link on the side panel in the non-admin interface, however the link seems to only appear on the admin interface. After some digging around, I've realized that the link really is formed only for the admin interface (see: templates/webapps/community/admin/index.mako). I guess it's been removed at some stage (however looking at the hg logs for this file didn't help me figure out when). But back to the real problem....clicking on "Browse by category" yields nothing - everything is empty.
A bit about the configurations I tested... galaxy-central AND galaxy-dist - minimal configuration (setting database_file in community_wsgi.ini and unsetting it (same outcome)). One thing that has led me to believe that there is something quite wrong in my configuration is that there is no hgweb.config file created (apparently it should be created once the toolshed starts). Right now I'm looking around the hg/mercurial related code in the community/ dirs but I'm not getting very far...the HgController class is "loaded" but none of its methods ever get called (nor can I find out from the code where they're supposed to be called from).
Has anyone else had this problem? I remember a few weeks ago on a clean galaxy-dist I had (lost now), I was able to see the repositories as per the user_register.png image above. Since then I've made new VM images and lost the original galaxy-dist so I can't go back and figure out what was different on that configuration...I'd very much appreciate any thoughts on this.
Thanks! Ivan
