I’m trying to run fastQC on my fastq.gz file. The FastQC job itself seemed successful,and there was no error report. All dependencies were done. But there was no image in the webpage report like this:

What can i do to fix it?
thank you

You need to whitelist the fastqc tool first. This is because of security.

Go to the admin page, in the menu on the left you will see “manage whitelist”. On this page you can white list the fastqc tool. And you will see images after that.

Thanks @gbbio!

@ZJUCCY The label will change in Galaxy release 20.09 from whitelist > allowlist

If you are working at your own Galaxy server, or some private Galaxy server, it sounds like the tool did not get added to the “whitelist” that permits HTML content to be viewed or accessed. Should this be your case, whoever administrates the server can check under Admin > Manage Whitelist and mark the tools that should have output in formats that can be security concerns be accessible. (HTML cannot be Uploaded at public servers, for this very reason, but tools are configured to permit the creation/access of HTML ). For a private server, the administrators can set those permissions as wanted. If done through the GUI, a server restart isn’t needed. And in most cases I can think of, end users won’t need to rerun prior jobs that created HTML – changing the setting is enough. But try a rerun/server-restart as troubleshooting strategies as needed.

Note: In the upcoming release of Galaxy 20.09 , the function will be renamed. The prior setting “whitelist” will be renamed as “allowlist”. Full details here: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/latest/search.html?q=allowlist&check_keywords=yes&area=default

Thanks!
