I'm not sure, but can you try to fetch the first jar file with download_by_url. The last time I was struggling with that the download_by_url was required, if I remember correctly. > I believe that either I have a simple error in both install descriptions, > leading to the install to 'work' but not put things where I expect them > (which is my problem), or the install is really failing yet there is no > feedback about this (which is a Galaxy Tool Shed problem). > The idea of my new <action> types for checking if files and folders > exist is to catch some types of install failure as early as possible - > in this case verify the install put the relevant files where it was > intended to. > > Could you direct me at the source code which handles running > the tool_dependencies.xm install scripts? I'd like to look at what > kind of error handling it does (e.g. I'd hope non-zero return codes > from a shell_command <action> would be treated as an error), > and how easy it would be to add the new actions myself. Have a look at: lib/tool_shed/galaxy_install/tool_dependencies/fabric_util.py Hope that helps!
