Sridha, There's a difference between your two errors. In the first error for fastqc, Galaxy can't find the source. In the second error, for GATK, the source is being found and executed OK, but GATK is throwing an error ("The fasta file you specified (/tmp/tmp-gatk-EYMIaT) does not exist."). I'm not familiar enough with GATK to know why it's throwing this error. Sorry. Cheers, Graham

Hello Ross,

Thanks for the reply..

i copied the source directory to tool-data/shared/jars

Hi, Sridar,

Why use the FastQC directory -tool-data/shared/jars would make it easy to simply copy the way the current FastQC tool does this - the source for FastQC xml and python wrappers are easy to find in the central repository on bitbucket?

However, to do it properly so it's easy to autoinstall from a tool shed, please take a look at the test fastqc tool http://testtoolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/fubar/fastqc repository which includes a tool_dependency.xml that autoinstalls the jar and sets up the path for a properly managed dependency - avoiding the ugly solution found in the existing fastqc tool. That's the way of the future for all tool wrappers, so a good thing to start using. Plenty of docs on the wiki and examples in the test toolshed.

Dear Developers,

I am using java jar files for softwares like fastqc, GATK. For running these tools i install the softare and set path in bash_profile file.

My doubt is i placed the jar files in galaxy dist folder ( galaxy/galaxy-dist/tool-data/shared/jars/FastQC/fastqc )

is this enough to call the jar files from galaxy??

After placing the jar file i tried running the tool using the interface it gives ERROR as

# FastQC cl = /illumina/data/galaxy/galaxy-dist/tool-data/shared/jars/FastQC/fastqc --outdir=/illumina/data/galaxy/galaxy-dist/database/job_working_directory/ 000/216/dataset_546_files --f=bam /illumina/data/galaxy/galaxy-dist/database/job_working_directory/000/216/d ataset_546_files/Bowtie2_on_data_7_and_data_6__aligned_reads

I got same error for GATK also
