Enis, thanks! I did edit the file in the bucket as much as adding an admin user. I uploaded the file back into the bucket but now the galaxy part is not starting. It is throwing an error: * 19:01:24 - Setting up Galaxy application * 19:01:24 - Retrieved file 'universe_wsgi.ini.cloud' from bucket 'cm-99e0c68a2fe11e32a592e36abd1f2c38' to '/mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/universe_wsgi.ini'. * 19:01:25 - Retrieved file 'tool_conf.xml.cloud' from bucket 'cm-99e0c68a2fe11e32a592e36abd1f2c38' to '/mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/tool_conf.xml'. * 19:01:25 - Retrieved file 'tool_data_table_conf.xml.cloud' from bucket 'cm-99e0c68a2fe11e32a592e36abd1f2c38' to '/mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/tool_data_table_conf.xml.cloud'. * 19:01:25 - Starting Galaxy... * 19:01:25 - Error invoking Galaxy, running command '/bin/su - galaxy -c "export SGE_ROOT=/opt/sge; sh $GALAXY_HOME/run.sh --daemon"' returned code '1' and following stderr: 'Traceback (most recent call last): File "./scripts/check_eggs.py", line 22, in c = Crate() File "/mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/eggs/__init__.py", line 259, in __init__ self.galaxy_config = GalaxyConfig() File "/mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/eggs/__init__.py", line 356, in __init__ if self.config.read( GalaxyConfig.config_file ) == []: File "/usr/lib/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 286, in read self._read(fp, filename) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 482, in _read raise MissingSectionHeaderError(fpname, lineno, line) ConfigParser.MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers. file: /mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/universe_wsgi.ini, line: 1 '\xff\xfe#\x00\n' Traceback (most recent call last): File "./scripts/fetch_eggs.py", line 27, in c = Crate() File "/mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/eggs/__init__.py", line 259, in __init__ self.galaxy_config = GalaxyConfig() File "/mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/eggs/__init__.py", line 356, in __init__ if self.config.read( GalaxyConfig.config_file ) == []: File "/usr/lib/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 286, in read self._read(fp, filename) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 482, in _read raise MissingSectionHeaderError(fpname, lineno, line) ConfigParser.MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers. file: /mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/universe_wsgi.ini, line: 1 '\xff\xfe#\x00\n' ' Is the edited bucket file causing an issue? How do I get a new one or fix this? I did notice that the first uploaded try omitted the .cloud suffix, but i uploaded it again with the correct suffix. best, joe ________________________________ From: Enis Afgan [eafgan@emory.edu] Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2011 11:46 AM To: Joseph Hargitai Cc: galaxy-user@lists.bx.psu.edu Subject: Re: [galaxy-user] cloud instance drops settings on reboot Hi Joe, This is by design. In order to change the settings in universe_wsgi.ini, you should edit file universe_wsgi.ini.cloud in the cluster's bucket on S3. This file get pulled in by Cloudman each time an instance starts. As far as restarting Cloudman, there is a (new) Admin panel (link at top right of the Cloudman console page) that gives you an option to restart Cloudman (as well as individual application-level services). Let us know if you have any more questions, Enis On Tue, Jun 28, 2011 at 11:29 AM, Joseph Hargitai <joseph.hargitai@einstein.yu.edu<mailto:joseph.hargitai@einstein.yu.edu>> wrote: Hi, setting the admin user in /mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/universe_wsgi.ini did work after a simple restart of the galaxy service as user galaxy - ./runs.sh However, when I restarted the cloud instance (rebooted from Amazon console) the setting reverted to original. Is there perhaps another ini file that overrides this one on a reboot? Also, is there a proper/other way to restart the service? best, joe ___________________________________________________________ The Galaxy User list should be used for the discussion of Galaxy analysis and other features on the public server at usegalaxy.org<http://usegalaxy.org>.
