Hi all, For what it's worth, Jetstream (https://jetstream-cloud.org/) is a virtualization environment aimed at National Science Foundation-funded researchers in the USA. From context, I surmise that there are a number of researchers enrolled in a Coursera course right now, using Galaxy on Jetstream VMs as the learning platform. For those of you enrolled in that Coursera course right now, my recommendation would be that you report the error to the maintainers of the course, because they are likely the only ones who can correct the underlying problem specific to your situation. This will help other students (and future students) as well. The version of Parallel being used on your Jetstream VM images (20170422) is different from the ones in the current "stable" or "LTS" Linux distros right now (Ubuntu 20.04 and Debian Buster = 20161222; CentOS 8 = 20190922), so it's possible that was just the available version of Parallel when they created the VM image for the course. The course facilitators may want to update the version of Parallel on your VMs to see if it fixes the problem ('apt update' or 'yum update' or similar), or else look into why the Galaxy job failed on their own. In any event, I think the responsibility should be on them, not you, the people participating in the course. Feel free to forward this to them directly, if you think that would help explain things. --Kevin
