New tools available on Galaxy

New tools released to Galaxy Test at http://test.g2.bx.psu.edu. 1. Gene BED to Exon/Intron BED ("Convert Formats" tool set) - This tool is an enhancement to the old tool "Gene BED to Exon BED". It converts a UCSC gene bed format file to a list of bed format lines corresponding to requested features of each gene. The new feature is to convert gene bed lines to intron bed lines. And the interface is more user friendly. 2. yn00 ("PAML" tool set) - this tool finds the ratio of the number of non-synonymous substitutions per non-synonymous site (Ka) to the number of synonymous substitutions per synonymous site (Ks) for the alignments in the input file.

Install problem: SQLite DBAPI not found
by Thomas Junier 16 Feb '07

Hi folks, First of all, I'm not sure if this is the right list to post to, so my apologies if it isn't. I'm trying to install Galaxy on my machine, according to the instructions at http://g2.trac.bx.psu.edu/wiki/HowToInstall. Everything works fine until I try to do: $ sh run.sh at which point I get a Python traceback in which the last call raises the following error: File "/home/galaxy/galaxy_dist/eggs/SQLAlchemy-0.3.3-py2.4.egg/sqlalchemy/engine/strategies.py", line 52, in create sqlalchemy.exceptions.InvalidRequestError: Cant get DBAPI module for dialect '<sqlalchemy.databases.sqlite.SQLiteDialect object at 0x2a983a6fd0>' (whole traceback at end of mail) I'm using Python version 2.4.3. on a Linux box (SuSE 9) The eggs/ directory does contain a bunch of pysqlite*.egg files, but apparently Python can't find them or else they're not the right ones, or whatnot. Is there a step I missed during install? Any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

News From the Galaxy Development Team
by yizhang＠bx.psu.edu 09 Feb '07

09 Feb '07

Hello Galaxy Users, The Galaxy development team is starting a new initiative for communicating important announcements about Galaxy to our users. We will be sending announcements like this one to the galaxy-user(a)bx.psu.edu email list, so if you are interested in receiving these announcements, please be sure to subscribe to this list. We are also in the process of adding a "News" page to our Galaxy wiki documentation, so some announcements will be available there as well. Here are the highlights of the new features that are currently available on our Galaxy test environment at http://test.g2.bx.psu.edu/. Maf Limit to Species Tool This tool offers the ability to remove any undesired species from a MAF file. Columns which contain only gaps are removed. The user can choose to keep or discard blocks which do not have all the desired species. The user can also choose to include blocks which contain only a single species. Enhanced LAJ Tool We have added a dialog box for filtering the input data. This eliminates a problem we were having with integer overflow. Enhanced Build Lists of the Upload Tool and Edit Attributes Build lists are now alphabetized (by display name) in edit attributes and the upload tool. Miscellaneous We have made several miscellaneous improvements throughout the application, including (but not limited to) better descriptions of errors encountered with invalid data source files (even more improvements coming in this area). As stated above, we'll continue to contact you with new about important Galaxy enhancements and updates. Thanks very much, The Galaxy Development Team

Re: [galaxy-user] modified "merge" tool
by Iris Vargas Jentzsch 10 Jan '07

10 Jan '07

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).

error with EMBOSS tools

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.

Fetch sequence and alignments: extract blastz alignments

Is it possible to get hg18 alignments to panTro2 on the server? the latest are at : http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg18/vsPanTro2/ please do NOT use the ones currently in /depot/data1/cache/human/hg18/align/panTro2/axtNet/ as they were run using an incorrect substitution matrix.

Hi Laura, How are you doing? Thanks for letting us know the connection problem between EncodeDB and Galaxy. After some minor fix, EncodeDB should work now. Please let us know, if there are still problems. Wish you have happy Holidays, Yi

modified "merge" tool
by Iris Vargas Jentzsch 20 Nov '06

20 Nov '06

Dear Galaxy team, I just realized that the "merge" tool in the 'Operate on Genomic intervals" section has been modified (for both the test and the main sites). When I used it before, it gave me only three columns as output (start, end and chromosome) regardless of the number of columns present in the original file. That was actually very handy for me, because it meant that after merging output files from different programs individually, I could join those into one without problem because the columns ended up being the same in all files. Now the tool conserves the column number by adding dot columns to reproduce the original number of columns. I wonder if there is the possibility to leave this as an option, so that the user can choose among conserving number of columns or getting a simplified version with only three output columns like before. I know I can simply cut the columns I want out to another file, but it is an additional step, and when processing a lot of files, if the connection is slow or the server is busy it takes ages :( Otherwise I would be very happy if someone can tell me how to use galaxy directly from the command line. That would make my life so much easier :) Thank you, Iris ====================================== Iris M.
