Hello all,

Harry (CC'd) emailed me about some teething trouble getting
nucleotide BLAST databases to appear in the drop down lists
(see below).

I suspect this is partly due to the partial data table sample that
ships with Galaxy:

https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/blob/dev/config/tool_data_table_conf.xml.sample

Can any of the Galaxy Data Manager expects advise please?

Thanks,

Peter

Hi Peter,

Sorry for the delay in response. If you think it would be useful please post it.

I have downloaded what I thought was the newest versions of NCIB
blast+ 2.2.31 from the toolshed.

The tool_data_table_conf.xml.sample I altered was in galaxy_dir/config/.

If you need anything else please ask.

Thanks
Harry

Hi Harry,

Hmm. I'm a little puzzled. That file looks fine on our GitHub and on
the Tool Shed:

https://github.com/peterjc/galaxy_blast/blob/master/tool-data/tool_data_table_conf.xml.sample

http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/devteam/ncbi_blast_plus (browse tip files)

Can you tell me exactly which version of things you got from the Tool
Shed, and exactly which tool_data_table_conf.xml and
tool_data_table_conf.xml.sample you had to edit?

My guess is the problem is this partial example that ships with Galaxy:

https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/blob/dev/config/tool_data_table_conf.xml.sample

(There is talk of moving datatypes like this back into the Galaxy
core, which would simply this)

May I forward this email to the public Galaxy developers mailing list please?

Thanks,

Peter
