Hi I've installed galaxy with the default settings and it works fine.
On a new Ubuntu machine I am trying to get galaxy running with Apache. But I am having problems, I've followed the documentation.
After installing Apache I can put my ip address into a browser and I get message saying Apache is working fine. It displays a message from /var/www/index.html
Now when I start galaxy I was assuming I would get redirected to the galaxy welcome page, but this doesn't happen and it remains at /var/www/index.html. To view the welcome page I have to add ":8080" after the ip address. Is this still required? I thought that Apache would know to redirect to my distribution....What am I doing wrong?
/etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl and /etc/apache2/sites-available/default look like this ...
DocumentRoot /var/www <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory /var/www/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory>
etc ...
/var/www/.htaccess
RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/galaxy$ /galaxy/ [R] RewriteRule ^/galaxy/static/style/(.*) /home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/static/june_2007_style/blue/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/galaxy/static/scripts/(.*) /home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/static/scripts/packed/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/galaxy/static/(.*) /home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/static/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/galaxy/favicon.ico /home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/static/favicon.ico [L] RewriteRule ^/galaxy/robots.txt /home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/static/robots.txt [L] RewriteRule ^/galaxy(.*) http://localhost:8080$1 [P]
I created an empty 'galaxy' directory with 777 permissions on it under /var/www
and universe_wsgi.ini
