Solved! After finding documentation indicating that changing the URL of the test toolshed from http to https in the tool_sheds_config.xml file solved some redirection issues, I tried the same thing for the URL of the main toolshed.

I've just installed Galaxy locally for the first time on a Mac OS 10.9.3. The only changes I've made to the universe_wsg.ini file are: setting host=0.0.0.0 (The error also occurred with host=127.0.0.1?) specifying a full path for Tool_depenendency_dir giving myself administrator privileges with admin_users=myemail any ideas?
