  • Galaxy import BAM file error

    I installed my own copy of Galaxy on my local computer. It runs very well, I modified the universe_wsgi.ini file to allow for uploading of bam files from the system path.

    So, when I tried to add a bam file to the shared library as admin, I get the error below. Anybody know what is going on here? It's a 55GB bam file.

    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/leon/galaxy-dist/tools/data_source/upload.py", line 394, in
    __main__()
    File "/home/leon/galaxy-dist/tools/data_source/upload.py", line 383, in __main__
    add_file( dataset, registry, json_file, output_path )
    File "/home/leon/galaxy-dist/tools/data_source/upload.py", line 292, in add_file
    if datatype.dataset_content_needs_grooming( dataset.path ):
    File "/home/leon/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/datatypes/binary.py", line 148, in dataset_content_needs_grooming
    version = self._get_samtools_version()
    File "/home/leon/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/datatypes/binary.py", line 130, in _get_samtools_version
    output = subprocess.Popen( [ 'samtools' ], stderr=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE ).communicate()[1]
    File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 642, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
    File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 1234, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
    OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

    error
    Database/Build: ?
    BAM Index File: None
    Disk file: /home/leon/genome_data/hu80855C/PG0001217-BLD.bam

    When you import a bam file, Galaxy is trying to call samtools to check the file's content (to "groom" it as it's called in Galaxy)

    This part of the error message:

    File "/home/leon/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/datatypes/binary.py", line 130, in _get_samtools_version
    output = subprocess.Popen( [ 'samtools' ], stderr=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE ).communicate()[1]
    File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 642, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
    File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 1234, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
    OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

    means that samtools wasn't found, which could be either because you haven't installed it or because it's in a directory that's not in your system PATH.

    Think of Galaxy as a framework. It provides user-friendly access to command line tools (like samtools), but you still have to install these tools.

    Best,
    Wolfgang

      By the way,
      there is an excellent Galaxy-specific forum at https://biostar.usegalaxy.org/ .

        Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
        by seqadmin



        The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

        Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
        by seqadmin



        Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
