I've got the same problem and when I looked at the data_transfer.log, I saw the following message:

2012-03-01 15:12:27,338 - datatx_13870 - (u'9c17d84742cd2acb63d88b5bd41d968f', u'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/samples/2d9035b3fc152403', {'sample_dataset_ids': ['a799d38679e985db', '33b43b4e7093c91f'], 'error_msg': '', 'update_type': 'sample_dataset_transfer_status', 'new_status': 'Adding to data library'})

Using Galaxy instead of Apache as the web server changed the sample status from "in queue" to complete but didn't add the downloaded files to the data library.

Dear Galaxy Dev,

I've set up the Galaxy sample tracking system data transfer
functionality exactly as specified here
https://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/u/rkchak/p/data-transfer, but when I
attempt to transfer datasets it puts them into the queue and then
never seems to transfer anything.

The galaxy_listener.log shows:

The FASTQ files are for testing and aren't very big (7.6 MB), what
could be going wrong?

Leandro
