Hi all,

Running galaxy-central default branch, I've seen a couple of cases where
what otherwise appears to be a successful job has failed with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./scripts/set_metadata.py", line 122, in <module>
    __main__()
  File "./scripts/set_metadata.py", line 72, in __main__
    datatypes_registry.load_datatypes( root_dir=config_root,
config=datatypes_config )
  File "/mnt/galaxy/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/datatypes/registry.py",
line 67, in load_datatypes
    tree = galaxy.util.parse_xml( config )
  File "/mnt/galaxy/galaxy-central/lib/galaxy/util/__init__.py", line
135, in parse_xml
    tree = ElementTree.parse(fname)
  File 
"/mnt/galaxy/galaxy-central/eggs/elementtree-1.2.6_20050316-py2.6.egg/elementtree/ElementTree.py",
line 859, in parse
  File 
"/mnt/galaxy/galaxy-central/eggs/elementtree-1.2.6_20050316-py2.6.egg/elementtree/ElementTree.py",
line 576, in parse
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/mnt/galaxy/galaxy-central/database/tmp/tmpWJZ1Aw'

I'm not quite sure what was in the temporary XML file which
no longer exists, perhaps there is a race condition with the
removal of the temporary files?

Has anyone else observed this?

Thanks,

Peter

One minor change which might help give a clearer error message
here (and in related issues like the functional tests where not all
the tools listed in tool_conf.xml.sample always exists on disk) is:
