Hi
We have set up galaxy in a production environment and our galaxy users can connect to the FTP and upload files. No worries.
The settings in the universe file seem correct and are.
ftp_upload_dir = /home/galaxy/galaxy-dist/database/ftp
It creates the directory and uploads the file. But when the user signs into galaxy they cannot view their file in the get data -> from files on my computer.
Proftp config is listed below.
Cheers James Boocock
