Hello imon,

You are correct - this feature is not yet available on the main tool shed. I'll add some code to handle this issue in a better way. However, the fact that the main tool shed is not currently handles in a better way doesn't really cause any problems in this case. So if you wanted to run the development branch, the current behavior for this feature should not keep you from doing so.

Thanks for reporting this.

Hi Greg,

I think this would be yours. I've recently upgraded to the development branch, and I'm getting HTTP 404 errors from the new function get_tool_shed_status_for_installed_repository().

What gets logged is this: tool_shed.util.shed_util_common ERROR 2013-10-14 09:44:17,448 Error attempting to get tool shed status for installed repository emboss_datatypes: HTTP Error 404: Not Found Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/galaxy-dev/galaxy/lib/tool_shed/util/shed_util_common.py", line 1226, in get_tool_shed_status_for_installed_repository encoded_tool_shed_status_dict = common_util.tool_shed_get( app, tool_shed_url, url ) File "/home/galaxy-dev/galaxy/lib/tool_shed/util/common_util.py", line 191, in tool_shed_get response = urlopener.open( uri ) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/urllib2.py", line 397, in open response = meth(req, response) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/urllib2.py", line 510, in http_response 'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/urllib2.py", line 435, in error return self._call_chain(*args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/urllib2.py", line 369, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/urllib2.py", line 518, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

When I enhanced the log output like this: log.exception( "Error attempting to get tool shed status for installed repository %s (%s) (%s): %s" % ( str( repository.name ), str(tool_shed_url), str(url), str( e ) ) ) I saw this in the log: tool_shed.util.shed_util_common ERROR 2013-10-14 09:55:26,584 Error attempting to get tool shed status for installed repository emboss_datatypes (http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu) (http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/repository/status_for_installed_repository?nam...): HTTP Error 404: Not Found

It occurs to me that the main toolshed may not be running with this feature enabled yet, and perhaps I should just ignore this error for now? (I'd like to be running the development branch for other features it gives me. Alternatively, I could think about back-porting the features I really need to stable, but that sounds like more work than I have time for.)

When's the next stable release planned to be released, and what should I expect to be in it?
