Re: [galaxy-user] modified "merge" tool

Hello, I had an issue with the "merge tool some time ago and I sent a message to this board on the 20th of November last year. I got a reply linking me to the explanation of the new operations, which I found awesome! Especially for the Cluster tool :) I did reply to that message, but it seems like it did not come through. In that mail I wrote the following: --- If the Merge tool should output only three columns then there might be something wrong with it because it actually replaces all the columns that are not start, end and chromosome with dots instead of eliminating them, resulting in files with different numbers of columns. On the other hand, the concatenate tool does combine datasets that have the same columns in different orders. But if there are additional columns beside of start, end and chromosome (like the dot columns in the results from the merge tool), then it gives me an error: An error occurred running this job: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./tools/new_operations/gops_concat.py", line 69, in ? main() File "./tools/new_operations/gops_concat.py", line 62, in main for line in concat([g1, g2], sameformat=sameformat): File "build/bdist.linux Here I can’t see the whole error message, so I don’t know if this is useful. --- The "merge" tool actually continues adding those funny dots for the additional columns, which I then need to eliminated to continue performing operations on the file. Therefore I would ask you please to have a look at it and maybe give the user the choice as to how many columns are needed in the output (i.e. 1-conserve number of columns or 2-reduce to three columns).

The concatenate tool now fills absent fields with dots. Here is a detailed description of new operations: http://www.bx.psu.edu/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/GopsDesc You can use new operation from command line. For this you will need to download Galaxy and look at how commands are formed within tool configuration files.

error with EMBOSS tools
by Ross Hardison 05 Jan '07

Using Galaxy test I tried to run three different ORF-finders from EMBOSS: "getorf", "sixpack" and "transeq". All of them gave the same error: "An error occurred running this job: sixpack: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" Ross Hardison T.
