Re: [galaxy-dev] Liftover tool installation woes
Great news, very glad this worked. I'll add liftOver to our wiki with more specific instructions and add in the bit about explicit paths to the .loc file section as well. Should help others going forward. Thanks for taking the time to report back the solution to the list! Jen Galaxy team On 7/5/12 1:47 AM, Kwon SoonJae wrote: Hi Jen! Definitely didn't forget to reset the server everytime I tried. The problem was solved when I fixed the relative path to the full path.. can't believe I was stuck forever because of such a small miss. Fixed! and everything working so far =) Thank you so much, SJ On Thu, Jul 5, 2012 at 4:43 PM, Jennifer Jackson j...@bx.psu.edu mailto:j...@bx.psu.edu wrote: Hello Kwon, There are no known issues with the liftOver wrapper (tools / extract / liftOver_wrapper.py and liftOver_wrapper.xml). Three more troubleshooting ideas: 1 - This may sound simple, but have you restarted the database since you updated the .loc files? http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Data%20Integration (final step) 2 - Remove the relative path from the .loc file entries (the ~/)) and replace with an explicit full path. I personally have not seen this used before in .loc files. Perhaps others on the list can comment about whether they have been able to use this successfully and if any special configuration was necessary. 3- Confirm that the genomes are in your builds list (also covered in wiki above). Note that UCSC dbkey values have special capitalization rules depending on where they are used. Your example .loc file has this correct, but I recommend that you also check your builds list entries against the wiki examples and your actual data. If you make any changes, be sure to restart before testing. For example, the liftOver file pair: hg19ToDanRer6.over.chain danRer6ToHg19.over.chain human dbkey = hg19 zebrafish dbkey = danRer6 Please let us know how this works out, Jen Galaxy team On 7/4/12 7:35 PM, Kwon SoonJae wrote: Hi Jen, Thanks for looking into this. I have unzipped all the .gz files so that the directory contains all .chain files.

The liftover command still works fine through the command line. I have a feeling the error has to do with the issue with Galaxy's job runner returning anything written to stderr as an error, mentioned here: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Future/Job%20Failure%20When%20stderr Seems like it was an issue back in 2010.
