All,

My understanding is that the cleanup_datasets.py under scripts/cleanup_datasets 
should be compatible with 'older' versions of postgresql.  I'm running 8.1 
under CentOS 5.  When I attempt to run the scripts, it fails to clean any data 
sets.  From the logs, I'm noticing messages like:

database_connection contains an unknown SQLAlchemy database dialect: postgresql

In my universe_wsgi.ini I've defined the database_connection as:

database_connection = postgresql://galaxy:********@localhost:5432/galaxydb

and am confident it's working as Galaxy works fine, other than this problem 
with deleting older datasets.

The pgcleanup.py script isn't an option, as it requires postgresql >=9.1.  I 
noticed yet another version of cleanup_datasets.py under cron which looks like 
it might be compatible with postgres, but am leary of trying it as I'm not sure 
what it means by "1: database directory to clean".  I'm not sure what directory 
to point this to, nor am I confident that just deleting data from the directory 
is the safest thing.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Thanks!
Malcolm
