macs error for chipseq data

Hi Kathryn, I am going to post this back to the galaxy-dev list and cc Dannon so that he or or one of the developers more experienced with troubleshooting cloud issues can help. My guess is that there is a path problem (covered in the first wiki link) but by no means is that the only possibility. Thanks! Jen Galaxy team On 1/11/13 7:38 AM, Sun, Wenping [USA] wrote:
Hi Jen,
Sorry that I missed some part of your email. It is not for local galaxy install. I am using the cloudman from aws and it seemed to have everything for having the input files and reference genome chose. The job was shown on the right panel and then the error message coming out.
It seems to me that MACS was installed.... What is the issue?
Thank you very much,
Kathryn

Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for the information on MACS tools.
Yes, I forgot to mention that I used bowtie mapped files as the input.
Thank you very much,

Hello Kathryn,
This is occurring on your local Galaxy install? Have you installed the actual MACS tool and set up the proper configuration paths? Details for how to do this are in these wikis: http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Tool%20Dependencies http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Tools/Tool%20Dependencies
Apart from that, I should let you know that prior to running MACS, groomed fastq datasets first need to be mapped. An example can be found in our Using Galaxy paper, protocol #3. Links to the paper and supplemental materials (including a screencast walk-through) are available here: https://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/u/galaxyproject/p/using-galaxy-2012
If you need more help with your local install, directing questions to the galaxy-dev@bx.psu.edu <mailto:galaxy-dev@bx.psu.edu> mailing list would be best,
Thanks!

There's an issue with the MACS installation on the current cloud tools volume (which will be fixed with the next volume update coming soon). For existing instances, you can get MACS working correctly by executing the following two commands (which change the default version of macs used) after ssh'ing in to your instance: sudo su galaxy ln -sfn /mnt/galaxyTools/tools/macs/1.3.7.1 /mnt/galaxyTools/tools/macs/default And that's it, no need to restart galaxy or anything. -Dannon On Jan 11, 2013, at 10:59 AM, Jennifer Jackson <jen@bx.psu.edu> wrote:

1.3.7.1 is definitely the version you want -- the Galaxy wrappers are not yet compatible with 1.4* versions (so they are guaranteed to fail). Is there more error output available, or is that it, ending with #tag size? On Jan 11, 2013, at 4:48 PM, "Sun, Wenping [USA]" <Sun_Wenping@bah.com> wrote:

For the output of 1.3.7.1, I didn't check wiggle files since it takes longer time. So the output are bed and html report, both with the same error and that's all I have from the right panel below the file names. I already deleted those errored-outputs.

The error is most likely caused by your input data and parameter choices. If you click the little bug icon in the history for a dataset in the error state, you'll see the full error output display that will have more information and will hopefully help you figure out what's going on. One potential problem might be that your MFOLD is too high, but we'd need to see the full error report to determine that.

Are you executing `sudo` as the galaxy user, or as the ubuntu user? The galaxy user is not a sudoer, and you shouldn't need to use sudo for anything you want to do as the galaxy user. The only use in this particular case for using `sudo` as root is to switch *to* the galaxy user. -Dannon On Wed, Feb 27, 2013 at 6:34 PM, Sun, Wenping [USA] <Sun_Wenping@bah.com>wrote:
Hello, When I sudo galaxy user at ssh terminal, the password prompted for galaxy. What is it? Thanks, Kathryn

There's an issue with the MACS installation on the current cloud tools volume (which will be fixed with the next volume update coming soon).
For existing instances, you can get MACS working correctly by executing the following two commands (which change the default version of macs used) after ssh'ing in to your instance:
sudo su galaxy ln -sfn /mnt/galaxyTools/tools/macs/1.3.7.1/mnt/galaxyTools/tools/macs/default
And that's it, no need to restart galaxy or anything.

Hi Kathryn, We at the modENCODE DCC ( http://www.modencode.org/ ) have been setting up a suite of 3rd party tools for calling peaks ( i.e., macs2, spp, PeakRanger ) using Galaxy on Amazon Cloud the last little while. Please have a look at the README files in the docs folder on our github at https://github.com/modENCODE-DCC/Galaxy Please give it a try and send us your comments/questions to help@modencode.org.
