Re: [galaxy-dev] Version Error and Python 2.7
Sorry to dig up this old thread, but how do you remove the check that prevents galaxy running on 2.7? One of my developers just updated his workstation to Ubuntu 11.04 (Py 2.7) which is preventing him from running Galaxy. I'm not sure whether it would be better to remove this check or to just install 2.6 alongside 2.7. -- Branden Timm bt...@glbrc.wisc.edu On 2/2/2011 12:07 PM, Peter Cock wrote: On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 6:02 PM, John David Osborne wrote: I have (or rather had) a functional galaxy installation on a CentOS box running python 2.4.

I’m guessing this is because scramble expects python 2.5 or above for the import (import in 2.4 I don’t believe takes arguments). Sounds like a bug. My question is does galaxy really still support 2.4 and should I move to python 2.7 (the current stable version) because the wiki just mentions versions 2.4 to 2.6 as being supported. There is currently a check to prevent Galaxy running on Python 2.7, but if you remove that at the very least you'll see lots of deprecation warnings. So we decided to go with Python 2.6 here.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Version Error and Python 2.7
Thanks Peter! I found 2.6 ( http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.6/) so I will go ahead and try that with galaxy and see if the problem goes away. -John On 2/2/11 12:07 PM, "Peter Cock" wrote: On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 6:02 PM, John David Osborne wrote: > I have (or rather had) a functional galaxy installation on a CentOS box > running python 2.4.

Now that all modern popular operating systems I'm aware of ship at least 2.5, we will likely phase out 2.4 support. We haven't decided when this will be, but there will be a substantial amount of time between announcement and the end of support to allow adequate time to get upgraded. --nate > > Peter > > ___ > galaxy-dev mailing list > galaxy-dev@lists.bx.psu.edu > http://lists.bx.psu.edu/listinfo/galaxy-dev > ___ galaxy-dev mailing list galaxy-dev@lists.bx.psu.edu http://lists.bx.psu.edu/listinfo/galaxy-dev
