HMMER3 tools not working #76

Closed kjetilkl closed 1 year ago

kjetilkl commented 1 year ago

A user tried to run the tools hmmsearch and hmmscan, and these jobs have now been stuck in a "queued" state in Galaxy for 2 days. (The jobs have not been submitted to Slurm yet). I believe the problem is that the tool relies on old-style Tool Shed dependencies and the required package could not be found in Conda.

The tool requires the package "hmmer" in version 3.1b1, which is not present in BioConda. But version 3.1b2 is available, so I tried to use that one instead. I found a pre-made container for this package in BioContainers (http://datacache.galaxyproject.org/singularity/h/m/hmmer:3.1b2--3), which I downloaded to usegalaxy.no. Then I used a new script I had made to find the correct name to use for the container based on the requirements in the tool wrapper, and I made a symlink with this name that pointed to the container file. Both tools ran successfully afterwards on test data that came with the tool wrapper.

I have notified the user via email.
