Hi,

      I have been trying to setup an ftp for a local instance of Galaxy. I read the instructions at https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/DataLibraries/UploadingLibraryFiles

But unfortunately could not see the mentioned files mentioned here "change the options library_import_dir and allow_library_path_paste, respectively in the Data Libraries section of your config (config/galaxy.ini or config/galaxy.ini)"

What I did was to change the universe_wsgi.ini file and make it look like this:

# This should point to a directory containing subdirectories matching users'
# email addresses, where Galaxy will look for files.
ftp_upload_dir = /bioappl/bin/galaxy-dist/database/files

# This should be the hostname of your FTP server, which will be provided to
# users in the help text.
ftp_upload_site = 127.0.0.1

But somehow Filezilla fails to connect with the port 8080.

Can someone who has done this kindly help.

regards,

Amit.

Hi Amit,

Galaxy does not include a FTP server but rather accesses the FTP directory directly/locally to read the contents. In order to access the directory with FTP clients you have to set up a separate FTP server. I hope this helps.

Thanks, Sam
