Hi Jen,

Thank you for the suggestions. I did try to log in to Galaxy under User -->Login. The password is the one I use for the Galaxy Main. However, it gives me the error message "No such user (please note that login is case sensitive)". I do not see a place to set Admin password in the universe_wsgi.ini file.

Here is how I setup the Admin permissions under Users and Security in the universe_wsgi.ini file: 1. id_secrete = gave a mix of numbers and letters 2. use_remote_user = True 3. remote_user_maildomain = Tilahun.Abebe@uni.edu

Hi Tilahun, If you're using remote_user and your authentication is done upstream (e.g. in Apache) then you'll want to modify your remote_user_maildomain. That parameter should be everything after the @ sign, so if you authenticate in Apache and Apache sets the REMOTE_USER header to 'Tilahun.Abebe', then remote_user_maildomain should be set to 'uni.edu'.

4. remote_user_logout_href = None 5. Admin_users = Tilahun.Abebe@uni.edu 6. require_login = True 7. allow_user_creation = False 8. allow_user_deletion = True 9. allow_user_impersonation = True 10. allow_user_dataset_purge = True 11. new_user_dataset_access_role_default_private = True

Can you check and let me know information I missed?

If remote user authentication is correctly set up, you should not have a "Log In" link under the User menu. You should always see the "Logged in as Tilahun.Abebe@uni.edu" item in the menu instead, and that item would not be clickable. --nate

Thanks.

Are you logged into your Galaxy instance UI using your admin account? This will display the Admin menu.

Admin permissions are set up in the universe_wsgi.ini file:

# -- Users and Security

< other items >

# Administrative users - set this to a comma-separated list of valid Galaxy # users (email addresses). These users will have access to the Admin section # of the server, and will have access to create users, groups, roles, # libraries, and more. For more information, see: # http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Interface #admin_users = None

Hopefully this solves the issue. Going forward, you'll probably find that the galaxy-dev@bx.psu.edu mailing list is the most helpful for local install questions: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Support#Mailing_Lists

Best,

Jen Galaxy team

I tried to install cutadapt for sequence trimming on a local Galaxy instance. I successfully installed Galaxy as an administrator. However, when Galaxy starts, I don't see the administrator option in the top menu bar with the "Analyze Data, Workflow, Shared Data, Visualization, Help, and User". It looks like the only way I can install cutadapt is with an administrator option. Any suggestion how I can include the administrator option in the menu?

Thanks for your help.
