Hi Greg,

I used that link when trying to create the support. The jpg datatype was
already present in the datatypes_conf.xml (

<datatype extension="jpg" type="galaxy.datatypes.images:Image"
mimetype="image/jpeg"/> )

, so I first made it available at upload -> display_in_upload=True. As far
as I understood, if galaxy doesn't have to guess what the format is, this
would be sufficient? From step2:

"Galaxy tools are configured to automatically set the data type of an output
dataset. However, in some scenarios, Galaxy will attempt to determine the
data type of a file using a sniffer"

However manually setting the format on upload still gave the mentioned
error. Therefore I followed the rest of the guide (adding a sniffer) but
still seem to fail here..

Cheers,
Jelle
