Re: [galaxy-dev] moving galaxy instance to different location

2014-01-17 Thread Hans-Rudolf Hotz

Hi Ido

Over the last few years, we have moved our production server to 
different hardware twice. And we also made copies of our production 
server in order to have the right development environment.


It always work without much hassle, once we have taken care of the 
'obvious', which usually was a combination of changing the absolute 
paths the configuration files and creating sym-links.



As always, make sure you have a back-up of your PostgreSQL (or MySQL) 
database.



Regards, Hans-Rudolf

Hi,

I have to move my galaxy instance to a different file system location.
Is there anything that I have to look out for besides the obvious like absolute 
paths in some data configs?

thank you very much,

Just to follow up on this - you will want to explicitly check
dataset.external_filename in your database for any hard coded paths that
may have changed.

Also - all tool shed installed tools including migrated tools are creating
tool dependency files (env.sh) in tool_dependency_dir that contain hard
coded paths. These will all need to be updated.

I imagine some tools will no longer work after migration - for instance
anything installed with virtualenv :(. These will likely need to be
reinstalled. I wish I could say I thought that was going to be an easy
process.

Good luck.
