Are you using a public source code repository during development? If you are manually installing the tool (which is how I work when developing a new tool), the *.loc files need to go in the folder galaxy/tool-data - but this is probably a bit different via a ToolShed installation. Also note that (currently) you must restart Galaxy in order for any changes to the *.loc files to take effect: https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/issue/538/ Peter ___ Please keep all replies on the list by using "reply all" in your mail client.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Choosing between pre-existing file or user-defined file as tool input
Dear Peter, Thank you for your help. I have used the blastp.loc file and renamed it and altered it in order to keep the same format as in the previous tool. Also I used the same ordering from blastp tool (i.e. 0=value 1=name 2=path). Nevertheless when I run my tool I get the error: Error: Failed to open txt file test_17_Sep_2012 for reading. I have used chmod 777 for my file but the issue still persists. Can you help me please? What could be the problem.

The BLAST+ wrapper do this to offer you a choice of your own database file from the history, or a system provided database like NR. The associated *.loc file is a simple tabular file of available BLAST databases, and must be filled in by the local Galaxy administrator.
