Which web form did you use to start the cloud instance? The page at usegalaxy.org/cloudlaunch will always point to the currently supported AMI, and I'd definitely recommend using this form for launching galaxy instances. The problem you're running into is that the unsupported AMI already initialized your database as postgres9, which isn't backwards compatible with the postgres8 installed on the official AMI. At this point, if you want to continue with this specific cluster you'll need to keep using that original AMI (or attempt to manually migrate the database between instances, which I wouldn't recommend). If you don't have any data you care to preserve on this cluster, just delete it and start over using usegalaxy.org/cloudlaunch and you should be good to go. If you want to try again fresh without deleting anything, just use a new cluster name when you launch the instance. -Dannon On Dec 6, 2012, at 7:45 PM, Fabiano Lucchese <fabiano.lucchese@hds.com> wrote:
Hi, all.
I’ve been trying to deploy a CloudMan/Galaxy cluster on EC2 for a couple of days now and have been facing all kinds of unexpected weirdness’s. I found out that the web-based form that automatically creates the EC2 instance uses an image that doesn`t seem to be officially supported (or at least encouraged) by the Galaxy team, so I decided to launch the instance by hand following the instructions from here:
http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/CloudMan/AWS/GettingStarted
Up to the point before accessing Galaxy, everything looks ok, but the service never starts. Instead, it shows up at the CloudMan Admin page as “Error” and nothing happens if I try to Stop/Start or Restart it.There’s no log either. The Postgres service displays an immutable “Starting” status, while its log provides the following message:
FATAL: database files are incompatible with server DETAIL: The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.1, which is not compatible with this version 8.4.7.
It does look like a messed up installation, which is quite surprising as this is supposed to be the recommended working image.
Does anybody have any clue on what might be going on?
Thanks in advance.
F.
