VCF files cannot have a '.' in the name #68

file names should not have them in anyway but I just wanted to let you know that dalliance fails to load vcf files (only file type I have tested this with) if there is a '.' anywhere in the name except in the place you would expect it:

qwerty.asdf.vcf = fail qwerty_asdf.vcf = fine

This happens when suppling the file source in the browser config

I'm afraid I still can't reproduce this.

The following track configuration works for me in both 0.12.4 and the latest master branch:

              {
                "name": "qwerty.asdf",
                "tier_type": "memstore",
                "payload": "vcf",
                "uri": "http://www.biodalliance.org/datasets/tests/qwerty.asdf.vcf"
              }

(look around chr2:26791287 to see some features). I've also tried adding the same file via the UI, both as a URL -- in which case it generates a config identical to the above -- or from a local file, both of which work fine.

I've tested in recent versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.

Is there any chance of getting an exact sequence of steps (preferably including a test file) which reproduces this?

Also, are those the actual file-names you tested with?

Closing because this turned out to be a server-configuration issue.
