Hi,

I'm a Galaxy and Python newbie and I'm working on project that desires to upload files from a directory to the Galaxy server. We'd like to physically copy the files rather than maintain references to them.

I'm starting by following the examples in scripts/api/README. All the display and library_create_library examples work. However, the library_upload_from_import_dir fails. In my universe...ini, library_import_dir is defined to be /home/dgeorge/galaxy/import and there is a bed directory under that with a short file, bed1.bed in the correct format. I'm not sure what to provide for the last parameter, the dbkey - maybe that's my problem?

I ran:

./library_upload_from_import_dir.py 59d2fd4e020e178f8c48e61150e513c2 http://localhost:8080/api/libraries/f597429621d6eb2b/contents c6ca0ddb55be603a10e891fff2e902c3 bed bed hg19

And I get the error:

Exception happened during processing of request from ('127.0.0.1', 38857)

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/home/dgeorge/galaxy/galaxy-central/eggs/Paste-1.6-py2.6.egg/paste/http server.py", line 1053, in process_request_in_thread

File "/usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py", line 297, in flush

self._sock.sendall(buffer(data, write_offset, buffer_size))

error: [Errno 32] Broken pipe

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks!
