Picking up on this thread, I said:
As per the title, I'm trying to setup a toolshed for our local use. After creating a repo, I try to upload the initial file only to get:
TypeError: array item must be charWhich seems to happen repeatedly, i.e. it's not a passing error.
And Greg said:
Regarding this issue, your initial problem was regarding uploading a file to a repository that you successfully created, but your pater log does not include anything about uploading. Can you clarify what the problem is? I'll need as much context as you can provide. For example, have you successfully created a new repository? If so, is the problem still that you cannot upload a file to it? If this is the case, can you send me the file you are attempting to upload? What are the contents of your hgweb.config file, which is located in you Galaxy install directory?
So, to recap:
* I'm testing out using a local toolshed * I install (via hg) a brand new Galaxy instance * I configure and fire up the toolshed * Create a repository * This works fine. I go to upload a file and I get:

Not sure where to look next. Any ideas?

Hello Paul,
I apologize for somehow missing the first line of your paster log, which in fact shows the upload step. Since you've tried uploading various files with no success, the problem is likely to be caused by something specific to your environment - possibly the version of the mercurial package you're using. What version of Python are you running, and what version of the mercurial package do you have installed with it? Also, what version of Galaxy do you have, and what database / version are you using?
I recently interacted with a developer who was setting up a local tool shed using Centos6.2 and was not able to create a repository - a slightly different issue than you have, but his problem stemmed from the old version of the mercurial package that was installed. Here's what he did:
======== - Mercurial has version 1.4. <--- THIS IS THE PROBLEM (default in the repo of Centos6.2) -- see below
So I decided to remove the mercurial version 1.4 and do a source install of the latest version 2.1.2. After installing, as user Galaxy I confirm a correct installation with:
[galaxy@galaxy galaxy-dist]$ hg debuginstall Checking encoding (UTF-8)... Checking installed modules (/usr/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/mercurial)... Checking templates (/usr/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/mercurial/templates)... Checking commit editor... Checking username... No problems detected
However, after this I still have to set the PYTHONPATH variable (otherwise, python does not find mercurial): export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/:${PYTHONPATH}
And our toolshed runs now, without errors. :-D ===========
Can you let me know the versions of the various components I've listed above, and whether upgrading the version of the mercurial package you are using fixes this?
Thanks,
Greg Von Kuster
