Speaking of which, the Wiki site hasn't been update to reflect that step 1 uses "hg clone https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/";

and step 5 moves to galaxy-central.  Is this supposed to be the case?

Fixed is one thing, pushed to "dist" is another :)

It only exists in "galaxy-central", not in "galaxy-dist" which is what you 
recommend people to use.

Both me and Ryan have this line of code, and I'm sure we've both pulled since 
April 2010.

It's really just intended to catch weird errors that don't throw an
actual error (also, I think that if the sam file has no header, no
info would be output into the bam file).

Nope - look at my example below - an invalid sam file still generates a 
non-empty BAM file.
This happens because of the "-t" parameter: samtools takes the header 
information from another file and generates the BAM file before even reading the SAM file.

It seems somewhat more
informative to tell the user the file is empty rather than just
"successfully" output an empty file.


Depends on your definition of "informative" - in this case the error message 
was not so informative at all, to a point a traceback was needed...

Just another example why python's misleadingly simple idioms are
quite dangerous in production code (couldn't help myself from
teasing about python... sorry about that).

Seems like line 150 in "sam_to_bam.py" tries to read the entire
BAM file into memory just to find out if it's empty or not...

As a stop gap solution with minimal changes, change line 150 from:
  if len( open( tmp_aligns_file_name ).read() ) == 0: to if len(
open( tmp_aligns_file_name ).read(10) ) == 0:

Which will read up to the first 10 bytes (instead of the entire
file).

A slightly better (but still wrong) solution is to simply check
the file size, with: if os.path.getsize(tmp_aligns_file_name) ==
0:

But it's still wrong because even an invalid sam file will create
a non-empty BAM file (when using "samtools view -bt") - the BAM
file will still contain the chromosome names and sizes.

Example: ======== $ cat mm9.fa.fai chr1    197195432       6 50
51 chr10   129993255       201139354       50      51 chr11
121843856       333732482       50      51 chr12   121257530
458013223       50      51 chr13   120284312       581695911 50
51 chr13_random    400311  704385924       50      51 chr14
125194864       704794249       50      51 chr15   103494974
832493018       50      51 ... ...

$ cat 1.sam Hello World This is not a SAM file

$ samtools view -bt mm9.fa.fai -o 1.bam 1.sam [sam_header_read2]
35 sequences loaded. [sam_read1] reference 'This is not a SAM file'
is recognized as '*'. [main_samview] truncated file.

$ ls -l 1.* -rw-r--r-- 1 gordon hannon 348 Apr  7 00:57 1.bam
-rw-r--r-- 1 gordon hannon  35 Apr  7 00:57 1.sam ========


So in short, this whole sam-to-bam wrapper tool is not suitable
for large SAM files (if they don't fit entirely in memory), and not
for error checking of invalid SAM files.

Ryan,

Since we're shooting in the dark here, best to try and
understand what's the exception.

Add the following line to the beginning of "sam_to_bam.py":
import traceback

and add the following line to "sam_to_bam.py" line 156 (before
the call to "stop_err"): traceback.print_exc()

Hopefully this will print out which exception you're getting,
and where is it thrown from.
