Hi Jeremy, Anna, I'm having a similar problem here as well. I would like to get a history from one Galaxy server to another and I followed the export and import steps. I even did a wget at the destination Galaxy server to check whether it could download the tar.gz file and this worked. When using the web UI I also get this message on my log showing it is actually doing something when I trigger the import: 10.85.13.89 - - [18/Dec/2013:15:10:48 +0200] "POST /history/import_archive HTTP/1.1" 200 - "http://dev1.ab.wurnet.nl:8088/history/import_archive" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/31.0.1650.63 Safari/537.36" galaxy.jobs DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:48,391 (3201) Working directory for job is: /home/lukas007/galaxy-dist/database/job_working_directory/003/3201 galaxy.jobs.handler DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:48,404 (3201) Dispatching to local runner galaxy.jobs DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:48,478 (3201) Persisting job destination (destination id: local:///) galaxy.jobs.handler INFO 2013-12-18 15:10:48,514 (3201) Job dispatched galaxy.jobs.runners.local DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:48,742 (3201) executing: export GALAXY_SLOTS="1"; python /home/lukas007/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/tools/imp_exp/unpack_tar_gz_archive.py http://galaxy.wur.nl/galaxy_production/history/export_archive?id=b1f249e0323... /home/lukas007/galaxy-dist/database/tmp/tmpPGL6le --url galaxy.jobs DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:48,786 (3201) Persisting job destination (destination id: local:///) galaxy.jobs.runners.local DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:48,875 execution finished: export GALAXY_SLOTS="1"; python /home/lukas007/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/tools/imp_exp/unpack_tar_gz_archive.py http://galaxy.wur.nl/galaxy_production/history/export_archive?id=b1f249e0323... /home/lukas007/galaxy-dist/database/tmp/tmpPGL6le --url galaxy.jobs DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:49,040 job 3201 ended galaxy.datatypes.metadata DEBUG 2013-12-18 15:10:49,040 Cleaning up external metadata files However, nothing is visible in my histories list. What could be wrong? I also don't see any error messages in the log above. Thanks and regards, Pieter.

(2) Export your history again; make sure to wait until you can use the URL to download a .gz file of your history. (3) Try importing it via URL to the Huttenhower Lab Galaxy. Let us know if you have any problems. Best, J. On Jun 10, 2013, at 11:45 AM, Edlund, Anna wrote: Hi. I have uploaded fasta files on the main galaxy server through my FileZilla program. In want to transfer them to the Galaxy at the Huttenhower Lab (see http://huttenhower.org/galaxy/root) page and to do that go to history list when I am logged in at both locations and I select 'Import a History from an archive'. I paste the url address from the main galaxy server (where my archive is located) and select submit. Then I waited for 2 days and nothing was transferred? I am clearly doing something wrong and would really like you input asap. Thank you very much!!
