Dear all, Please help me figure out what went wrong to set up ADMIN in my local instance using the new retinaMBP! This is what I did 1. I changed universe_wsgi.ini.sample file into universe_wsgi.ini (using Mac TextEdit) 2. Then, I edited universe_wsgi.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 = *dknguyen@uw.edu* 3. I shutdown Galaxy, rerun sh run.sh, log back in Galaxy but still no Admin function. 4. The reason that I wanted to ad Admin function is to import my NGS files (bigger than 2Gb fer sure) into Galaxy database. Please give me some tips on this as well. Thank you very much, Di Nguyen, postdoc U of Washington, Seattle, WA

Hi Di, You need to remove the starting comment/hash from the admin_users line: admin_users = dknguyen@uw.edu Thanks for using Galaxy, Dan

Hello,

I have the same problem here, I'm using linux and i changed ''galaxy.ini.sample'' 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:
#   https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Interface
#admin_users = ginlucks@gmail.com

into:

admin_users = ginlucks@gmail.com

But I still can set an admin

(Of course i have rerun sh run.sh and log in again ..but it doesnt work)

Thank you for help

Hi,

Is your problem just about having admin function? Can you log in as simple user?

Last thing, did you recently update your galaxy instance?

Thank you.

Sorry if i respond too late...but I'm sure i had write a post with a solution in this thread.. however i need to reinstall galaxy on my new computer and at the moment i have the same problem! i cant remeber how i solved it last time ....

Yes i cant log in as administrator and i need to be admin to add new tools

EDIT: i copy galaxy.ini.sample where there is the line

Admin_User = ''my mail''

and renamed it galaxy.ini.main

It works

I have tried you approach and several others. Still, my e-mail isn't recognized as an Admin User. The odd thing is: I have just added my user e-mail to the admin_users list, that already contained two other emails. I am still not an Admin user, but the other two are (they have been from the beginning). What should I do??
