Both responses worked for checking python version, but trying to download gave an error:
Install Galaxy on Mac OS10.7 1. Open Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app 2. Check Python version by pasting in "python -V", no quotes, and hit return response = Python 2.7.1 3. Get Galaxy by pasting in "% hg clone https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/", no quotes, and hit return response = -bash: fg: %: no such job On Aug 10, 2012, at 8:58 AM, Hotz, Hans-Rudolf wrote:
Hi Edward
I am moving your e-mail to 'galaxy-dev' since it's about a local Galaxy instance.
I don't think there are any differences between installing Galaxy on Linux and Mac OS X. Hence you can follow the step-by-step instructions on the wiki (well, there are actually only two steps anyway...):
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Get%20Galaxy
WRT checking the python version:
just type 'python -V' on the command line, eg on my old MacBook:
bash-3.2$ python -V Python 2.5.1 bash-3.2$
Hope this helps Regards, Hans

Hello, Could someone provide instructions for installing galaxy on a Mac OS 10.7? The
instructions provided by galaxy start off by asking me to check my python version, but I don't know how to do that. I figure someone has step-by-step instructions or a screen cast?
