Olen,

This is a runtime error, not an update error; it is occurring because we mistakenly committed code that is not compliant with python 2.4

Here are your options to fix this error:

(1) update your python version from 2.4 to 2.5 or 2.6; (2) update your installation from galaxy-central; specifically, you'll need changeset 5370:1cb94990d839 (3) make the changes in changeset manually: https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/changeset/1cb94990d839 and then merge when the next update comes out.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

J.

I was trying to update my existing Galaxy installation to the latest release (50e249442c5a) and encounter the following when I start it up:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/web/buildapp.py", line 81, in app_factory from galaxy.app import UniverseApplication File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/app.py", line 11, in ? from galaxy.tools.imp_exp import load_history_imp_exp_tools File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/tools/imp_exp/__init__.py", line 6, in ? from galaxy.web.base.controller import UsesHistory File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/web/base/controller.py", line 12, in ? from galaxy.visualization.tracks.data_providers import get_data_provider File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/visualization/tracks/data_providers.py", line 13, in ? from galaxy.datatypes.util.gff_util import * File "/home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/datatypes/util/gff_util.py", line 152 finally: ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I have attached the full script of what I did. I'm not too familiar with Mercurial and couldn't find any guidance in the wiki or mailing list on exactly what choices to make when Mercurial encountered conflicts, so I accepted the "delete" or "other" options when these occurred.

Any help would be appreciated.
