Hi, First of all, I apologize for interrupting into this discussion, but I have exactly the same problem and did not find a solution yet. And no: prefix and cookies are set properly in our particular setting (as "/")! This is not the cause... I think that the problem occurred with the May Galaxy update, but it was unnoticed for a while. Problem is that the histories of all users are not listed when being asked for it within Galaxy. Only the current history is present for every user. In addition, when I login using another computer, a different history is being depicted (which suggest a cookie issue but I just cannot find it). Copying the current history works but the copy is not listed either. In the postgres database, the histories are properly listed. If I type in the proper history name in Galaxy, I even get the stored history back! So this all works, but users cannot see their histories. The java console does not reveal any problem. prefix and cookie are set properly (I think). So I don't know. Does anyone have any clue on how to tackle this issue? I am happy to provide more information if needed! Thanks!

Hi Carl, Thank you for your quite extensive answer! I finally managed to find the line in universe_wsgi.ini that caused the problem. The moment I UNCOMMENT the following line: #log_actions = True I no longer can see the histories. The moment I comment this line again everything works fine. Anyway, this exercise resulted in a clean and updated universe_wsgi.ini file and the problem is solved now! Thank you for your help!

Do you see any errors in your log near or after "GET /history/list HTTP/1.1"? Shane Sturrock worked around this problem by updating his universe_wsgi.ini file (if I understand his procedure): 1. Make a backup of your universe_wsgi.ini file (for example, copy it to your home directory) 2. Rename the universe_wsgi.ini file in your galaxy installation something like 'universe_wsgi.ini.saved' 3. Rename the most recent universe_wsgi.ini.sample file (that came with the latest update) to universe_wsgi.ini. 4. Copy any custom settings for your server from your older universe_wsgi.ini.saved file to the newer universe_wsgi.ini file 5. Start Galaxy That seemed to work for Shane. Ambrose re-installed and reconnected his database. Neither is a solution to the original cause, but you may want to try them while we investigate.

Hello, This should be working now in stable's branch, revision: 9ebd773. You should be able to use the saved histories list and log_actions=True together. Let me know if you see any more trouble. Thanks for the reports and the help in tracking it down. Carl On Tue, Jul 16, 2013 at 4:06 PM, Carl Eberhard <carlfeberhard(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: Nice catch! I'll see where this leads.
