Thanks for the answer!  I've copied this response to the dev list email instead, after realizing its probably best there.  

I'm also having some trouble getting our PBS system configured.  I have pbs://hostname/ as my pbs parameter in the universe file, as well as everything else specified in the documentation.  I'm getting no error in the interface, and the backend never actually gets the job.  The error I see in the logs says:

galaxy.jobs.runners.pbs ERROR 2009-10-30 13:40:27,762 Uncaught exception queueing job
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/perin/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/jobs/runners/pbs.py", line 144, in run_next
    self.queue_job( obj )
  File "/home/perin/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/jobs/runners/pbs.py", line 219, in queue_job
    script = pbs_symlink_template % (job_wrapper.galaxy_lib_dir, " ".join(job_wrapper.get_input_fnames() + output_fnames), self.app.config.pbs_stage_path, exec_dir, command_line)
TypeError: sequence item 1: expected string, DatasetPath found


I'm guessing this has something to do with my config parameters, and the queue its trying to submit to.  the pbs://hostname/ value was used under the assumption that it would default to the 'default' queue on our cluster, so I'm wondering if I need to hard code those values into the connection string?  I'm a little confused as to how the syntax translates to the actual required string.  My guess is, for our values:

pbs://variome.chop.edu/default  

Perhaps its related to the scrambling of the egg instead?  I simply passed LIBTORQUE_DIR to the directory containing my libtorqure.so etc... 

?  Thanks in advance.

I'm hosting galaxy locally and am trying to figure out how to change  the temporary upload location of files from the root / /tmp folder to  something else.  My /tmp partition is too small to handle large fastq  files and this is causing me problems.  I see where to change things  in the universe file, but that's the final location, not the temporary  space.

Hi Juan,

A quick solution is to set $TEMP in your shell environment.  In the future, we'll force uploads to honor new_file_path in universe_wsgi.ini.
