Dear all, Please help me figure out what went wrong to set up ADMIN in my local instance! This is what I did 1. I changed galaxy.ini.sample file into galaxy.ini
2. Then, I edited galaxy.ini as followed:

# Administrative users - set this to a comma-separated list of valid Galaxy 
# users (email addresses). These users will have access to the Admin section 
# of the server, and will have access to create users, groups, roles, # libraries, and more. For more information, see: 
# http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Interface 
admin_users = My email
  1. I shutdown Galaxy, rerun sh run.sh, log back in Galaxy but still no Admin function.

Am I only suppose to copy the #Administrative users section in the new file?

Any help and guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Exact steps would be:

1) cp config/galaxy.ini.sample config/galaxy.ini (so, in answer to your question, the whole file should be copied)

2) edit the admin_users line by a) uncommenting it, and b) adding your email address exactly. It should look like:

# Administrative users - set this to a comma-separated list of valid Galaxy
# users (email addresses).  These users will have access to the Admin section
# of the server, and will have access to create users, groups, roles,
# libraries, and more.  For more information, see:
#   https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Interface
admin_users = foo@foo.com,zip@zap.com

3) kill any running galaxy processes and restart the server (probably just run.sh again)

4) log in (or register) with the email you entered in the line in step 2.

Does any of this seem off from what you did?

Thank you for your prompt response Dannon. Those were the exact steps that I followed, and still no luck.

How are you running Galaxy? With it in the foreground as ./run.sh?

Yes, I am new to all this, so not sure what I am doing wrong.

What URL are you visiting in the browser? And what are the last lines displayed in the terminal when you start Galaxy with run.sh?

ADD REPLYlink written 2.2 years ago by Dannon Baker3.7k

Http:localhost:8080/

and

Starting server in PID 6330. serving on http://127.0.0.1:8080

Thank you so much
