Hello Galaxy-team members, I downloaded the last version of Galaxy yesterday and tried to install it and run it under Windows XP. After installing Cygwin and Galaxy and making sure that both are in my path, I could not get the program to run. It seems to be missing some files (that are actually there). The message printed to the screen is as follows: imj15@biolz215 /cygdrive/c/Galaxy $ ./run.sh Architecture appears to be cygwin_nt-5.1-i686 python path: /cygdrive/c/Galaxy/modules:/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs:/cygdrive/c/Gala xy/arch/cygwin_nt-5.1-i686/lib/python Traceback (most recent call last): File "paster.py", line 7, in ? command.run() File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteScript-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/script/command.p y", line 70, in run File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteScript-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/script/command.p y", line 110, in invoke File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteScript-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/script/command.p y", line 205, in run File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteScript-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/script/serve.py" , line 182, in command File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteScript-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/script/serve.py" , line 202, in loadapp File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 183, in loadapp File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 204, in loadobj File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 578, in create File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 90, in invoke File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/Paste-0.5.1dev_r4888-py2.4.egg/paste/urlmap.py", line 24, in urlmap_factory File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 263, in get_app File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 275, in app_context File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 369, in get_context File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 411, in _context_from_explicit File "/cygdrive/c/Galaxy/eggs/PasteDeploy-0.5-py2.4.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi. py", line 14, in import_string File "/cygdrive/c/GAlaxy/modules/pkg_resources.py", line 1627, in load entry = __import__(self.module_name, globals(),globals(), ['__name__']) File "/cygdrive/c/GAlaxy/universe_wsgi.py", line 4, in ? import galaxy.model.mapping File "/cygdrive/c/GAlaxy/galaxy/model/mapping.py", line 8, in ? pkg_resources.require( "pysqlite>=2", "sqlalchemy>=0.2" ) File "/cygdrive/c/GAlaxy/modules/pkg_resources.py", line 503, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/cygdrive/c/GAlaxy/modules/pkg_resources.py", line 482, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req) # XXX put more info here pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pysqlite>=2 Could you please let me know what could be going wrong here? Another question: Is there a possibility to run Galaxy directly from the command line to automate some repetitive tasks? Thank you! Iris ====================================== Iris M.

Iris,
Thanks for your interest. Galaxy will run under Windows if you have Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/) installed. You will need make sure you have the latest version of Galaxy from SVN.
Files are saved under "database/files/".
There is no maximum file size in Galaxy, although certain filesystems do have limits (ie FAT32 has a max of 4GB). Let us know if you encounter a file size error.
Don't hesitate to let us know if we can offer more help,
Dan

Dear GalaxyTeam members,
I'm a PhD student at the University of Canterbury and I have been using Galaxy for about 3 weeks... It is an excellent program! Actually it is the kind of tool I was looking for many months and an awesome complement for the UCSC Genome Browser
Until now I have worked mostly using the interface at http://test.g2.bx.psu.edu/ which I guess is the test version. I have also installed the program in my linux session, however, I work more often in windows. Therefore I would like to know if you have a binary (or if you plan to make one) to run the program in windows?
And a curiosity: where are the files from the history saved? What is the size limit for all the history files?
Many thanks for your cool tool!
Iris
