I uploaded my fastq data and ran QC. The report showed the data was good enough. But when I ran fastp for adaptor trimming, the tool was disabled before the job completed. It kept showing the same error messages after I reuploated the fastq data.

Welcome @TLhelp

Thanks for reporting the issue! Yes, there is a small configuration issue with the brand new wrapper for fastp. → [Configration issue fastp 1.3.3+galaxy0 at ORG · Issue #1486 · galaxyproject/usegalaxy-tools · GitHub](https://github.com/galaxyproject/usegalaxy-tools/issues/1486)

We’ll be correcting this but you don’t need to wait! See below for how to navigate tool versions. Please let us know if you have follow up questions! 🙂

**Workaround:** For anyone who has a fastp job immediately fail with this message

> This tool was disabled before the job completed. Please contact your Galaxy administrator.

Please toggle into the earlier version of the tool and try that one instead. → [FAQ: Changing the tool version](https://galaxyproject.github.io/training-material/faqs/galaxy/tools_change_version.html)

- Problematic → **fastp** fast all-in-one preprocessing for FASTQ files (Galaxy Version **1.3.3+galaxy0** )

- Try instead → **fastp** fast all-in-one preprocessing for FASTQ files (Galaxy Version **1.3.2+galaxy0** )
