Trouble maintaining Galaxy config on cloud instance
Hi, I am trying to change the ftp dir (and some other modifications) vs. the standard Galaxy Cloudman config. When I modify the appropriate line in /mnt/galaxy/galaxy-app/universe_wsgi.ini on my running cloud instance: my changes disappear when I terminate/restart the cluster. When I modify universe_wsgi.ini.cloud and upload to the S3 bucket the file gets overwritten by the default when I restart the cluster... I can't find anywhere on the net which file I need to modify in order to have config changes persist. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, David
Hi David, I'm afraid some of that is embedded in CloudMan's code. Given you're restarting your cluster, you can unpack cm.tar.gz from your cluster's bucket (you can find this on CloudMan's Admin page) and edit *cm/util/galaxy_conf.py* to change the value for desired variables (under *populate_galaxy_paths* method). Once you're done, just create the tarball of the source again and upload it back to your cluster's bucket. Let us know if you that doesn’t work for you. We're working on a better solution for this.

Enis, Thanks for the pointers, I tried this and it didn't work for me. After I modified *cm/util/galaxy_conf.py *CM would no longer successfully start up my cluster. I suspect user-induced-syntax-error at my end when I modified the file, I am a perl guy and my python is not so great :( What I did that worked was to change the default ftp directory to a symbolic link pointing to my desired location. After this the UI can see and access the file system I want to use. Obviously it would be fantastic to have a slick mechanism to specify and persist any valid galaxy configuration mods, in any case I am good to go right now. Thanks, your help is greatly appreciated!
