Hello all

I've recently updated our local Galaxy instances to use a novel in-house job 
runner as part of a migration to a new VM platform.

As far as I can determine the runner is able to run jobs without any issues, on 
all versions of Galaxy that I've tried (v15.10/v16.01/v16.04/release_16.10).

However: when moving to release_16.10 I've noticed a minor issue with the UI, 
where the job state in the history no longer automatically switches from the 
grey "queued" state to the yellow "running" state - even though the logs 
indicate that the job status has changed internally.

Refreshing the history correctly updates the job to the correct yellow 
"running" state (so it would seem that internally Galaxy knows that the job 
status has changed), and transitions between other states seem to happen 
automatically.

Comparing my novel runner code with that for e.g. the drmaa runner , I can't 
see what might be missing from mine to cause this issue. I had wondered if it 
could be a problem with out of date Javascript in the UI somehow not detecting 
the job status change from "queued" to "running", but using the "local" job 
runner doesn't exhibit this behaviour.

(The source code for the runner can be found here:
https://github.com/pjbriggs/ansible-palfinder-galaxy/blob/jse-drop-add-prefix-option/roles/galaxy/files/jse_drop_runner.py
It submits jobs to the cluster by "dropping" the scripts into a shared 
directory, which are then collected and executed by a separate process running 
on the cluster - with all communication done via files.)

Can anyone suggest what might be happening to cause this issue?

Many thanks

Peter
