Hello, I managed to install Galaxy locally in our cluster for my user, after reading the online tutorials for production environment at galaxyproject.org, I couldn’t install a working instance of it so it can be publicly accessible to the community at a public URL. It is very hard to do it and I am actually scared I may ruin all our other web services (wordpress, sequenceserver and Rstudio-server). I do not know how to install a PostgreSQL and link that to Galaxy, without ruining the website I am currently hosting using apache and wordpress, if anybody has some experience in this topic I can really use some advice as I am lost in the Galaxy documentation on this topic. Does someone know where may I find help?
postgresql can create any number of databases, and Galaxy will use its own, completely unrelated to any other that wordpress/sequenceserver/etc may use.
I understand it may seem complicated, and you can surely break things if you don’t know what you are doing, but it is entirely possible to do it without any issues. I recommend you reach out to a local administrator to help you with it.
Thank you Martin, I will see what can be done, unfortunately I am the only administrator of our bioinformatics cluster, we are located at Buenos Aires Faculty of Medicine in Argentina, I was searching for any colleague but I could not find a public galaxy instance in my country, do you know about anyone?
I wanted to also let you know that this is our infrastructure and website I was talking about:
Slurm is a good friend of Galaxy, they are often deployed together. The docs.galaxyproject… links are the way to go, I am not sure if kickstart would be of good use to you.
I have installed galaxy / postgresql on a multi-user production enviroment for my project. I’ve used a sge grid for managing our servers, since we need high processing power. I’ve dealt a bit with galaxy inner configurations. Please contact me to check if I can help you somehow, or if you prefer post here your configuration details.
