Missing main script 'main.nf'

[nick-youngblut]

I'm updating a pipeline in which the master branch does not include a main.nf file, but my dev branch does include a main.nf file. I'm specifying my branch in the Revision number field in nf-tower Launchpad. I was successfully able to add the pipeline to my launchpad, but now when I try to update the pipeline (e.g., change the config profiles), I get the error:

Invalid pipeline repository: https://github.com/ORGANIZATION/PIPELINE- Missing main script 'main.nf'

When I try to "launch" (run) the pipeline in nf-tower, I get the following error:

Essential container in task exited

Unexpected error [StackOverflowError]

I'm guessing that these 2 issues are related. It seems that nf-tower doesn't work on the edge case where the repo master branch does not contain a main.nf file.

I'm getting the same [StackOverflowError] for another pipeline that I am trying to launch via the nf-towar launchpad. This other pipeline has a main.nf file in the master branch, so that isn't the issue. The error:

The workflow execution failed to start. Exit status: 1

I don't know what to do in regards to troubleshooting, given the ambiguous error message: Unexpected error [StackOverflowError]
