Error creating app from applet

Jasper Hof

Hello,

I've been working on an applet to run some GWAS analyses, which I would ideally like to make available to others, for example as app. I found some advice on this website:

Transitioning from Applets to Apps | DNAnexus Documentation

Which tells me an applet can be constructed using the command line ‘dx build --app --publish’. However, when I do this, I encounter the error:

“dxpy.exceptions.PermissionDenied: User is trying to make a non-provider project and bill it to a provider wallet., code 401. Request Time=1732027555.5506809, Request ID=1732029555817-647727”

Does anybody have an idea what might be going wrong here? Thanks in advance!

Best,

Jasper

    Hi Jasper,

    I am reproducing the support received from DNAnexus here in case others using the forum encounter this issue. The issue is caused because the command by default tries to create an app in multiple cloud regions, which is not possible in the UKB-RAP because the only available region is aws:eu-west-2. To build the applet as an app in the UKB-RAP:

    1. Ensure that the regionalOptions field in the dxapp.json file contains only aws:eu-west-2 and no other regions.

    2. When using the dx build command, use the additional --no-temp-build-project option.

    Thanks for using the forum!
