Hello, Carl. It looks as if your browser has gotten into some unusual state. The Table Browser is looking for a custom track that does not exist. The path you refer to is on our system, not yours.
Did you load a saved session before trying to use the Table Browser? We have sometimes seen this error in conjunction with loading saved sessions. I would suggest performing a cart reset. This is simple to do and solves the problem in most cases. It is also worth noting that if you loaded any custom tracks, you will have to reload them if you perform a cart reset. If you do work with custom tracks, it is good practice to create saved sessions to avoid losing them in this manner. To perform a cart reset, perform the following steps: 1. Browse to http://genome.ucsc.edu 2. Click "Genomes" in the blue navigation bar at the top of the screen 3. Just underneath the drop-down boxes to select clade, genome and assembly, click the "Click here to reset" link 4. Click "Tables" in the blue navigation bar at the top of the screen to see if the problem is solved If this does not solve the problem, try using a different browser such as Internet Explorer, Chrome or Safari to see if the problem is limited to Firefox. Please contact us again at [email protected] if you have any further questions. --- Steve Heitner UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carl Baribault Sent: Thursday, April 12, 2012 3:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Genome] unable to browse tables in firefox Dear All, I'm unable to browse the UCSC genome browser tables via my firefox browser due to denied write permissions, and I'm hoping you can identify which folder on my PC is the culprit. Steps to reproduce the error in my firefox browser are: 1. http://genome.ucsc.edu/ 2. Click on the "Tables" menu item. 3. Observer the following error message: "Can't open ../trash/ct/ct_genome_cdb_a3c920.bed to write: Permission denied" Can you tell which folder is the parent folder ".." in the above message? Thanks in advance.
