Hi Bassam,
First, I am going to post your question to the galaxy-...@bx.psu.edu
mailing list. This is where local and cloud install Galaxy questions can
get the best exposure to the development community.
Next, this isn't necessarily an error. And was the full line really this?
nohup: ignoring input and redirecting stderr to stdout
This is more of a linux issue than a Galaxy issue, but I'll give some
feedback and others can comment as well (or a google will bring up many
threads on the topic). Basically, this is just a stderr warning and can
be ignored. IF you should be using it - nohup isn't for all jobs.
Personally, I use it for data processing sometimes (general use, not
part of running Galaxy), but I think I am the only one (here!), since
there are other options to keep processes detached from individual
sessions. It is a habit. I see this all the time and the job keeps on
running. I could redirect the stderr to /dev/null but I usually just
ignore it (lazy = type less characters). But I don't admin our Galaxy
server either and wouldn't consider using it for that purpose. Which is
why I am posting to the mailing list, where the admins can comment.
On your system, the process might have actually run - this message has
nothing to do with it running or not. But you want to be careful - if
the process is interactive (requires a password), you don't want to use
nohup and redirect both stdout and stderr. I don't know what command you
ran, but you can do a few things to check to see if the process is running:
See if the nohup.out file is keeping a log of some sort of the job (if
it is still running, or if it quit and put output here):
$ more nohup.out
See what jobs are running in the current session:
$ jobs
See what jobs are assigned to the Galaxy user, you can do something like:
$ ps -u galaxy
Check to see if what you asked the process to do has been done, or check
the other galaxy logs for activity along those lines.
I am not sure if this is helpful or not, but perhaps will point you in
the correct direction (linux command help/usage) where you can find out
more.
Take care,
Jen

Dear Jennifer,
When I ran galaxy on our server it gave the error:
nohup: ignoring input
although I provided all inputs
Appreciate your help.
