I'm trying to set up a directory using FTP Upload (without an FTP server :-)) as
discussed above.
I added a test directory for the a user 'auser'
ftp_upload_dir = /data/galaxy/
ftp_upload_site = localhost
to the universe.ini
We are using LDAP, so I set up a test directory called
/data/galaxy/auser(a)molbiol.ox.ac.uk
but having added a file in can't see anything in the FTP upload
section or the 'Files uploaded via FTP' section even when 'auser' is
logged in.
Is there something else I need to do?
This should be it - are you certain the email in Galaxy exactly matches
the email used in the directory name (it's case-sensitive)? And this
may be a silly question, but are you running a new enough revision that
has the FTP Upload code?

Thanks,
