Job submission Failure" popup when the use of MetadataElement in biom1 datatype

[mariabernard]

Hi,
we developed tools that generate biom1 output file. But since the use of MetadataElement in the biom class in text.py (#1198 , commit b5c77a8 ) , when executing a job, a "Job submission Failure" pop up appear even if the job is running successfully (after refresh the history). I am searching from where it may come but if you have some ideas, I would be very interested in?

regards

Hi,

To be more precised, the error message is "Attempted to encode None id".
I modify the class Biom1 in lib/galaxy/datatypes/text.py line 141 and more precisely the default value for table_id:
MetadataElement( name="table_id", default=None, desc="table_id", param=MetadataParameter, readonly=True, visible=True, optional=True, novalue=None )
by
MetadataElement( name="table_id", default="ID", desc="table_id", param=MetadataParameter, readonly=True, visible=True, optional=True, no_value=None )

I test different default value None, "" and "ID" in different condition, but only "ID" solves the problem (which is strange).

...... to be continued .....

Hi @mariabernard I've encountered this problem as well, and have diagnosed the root cause of the problem here: #2423. Hopefully we will have a quick resolution.

Thanks for reporting this issue!
