Greetings,

My name is Ravi Sanka. I have a question regarding Galaxy.

Recently, I had a local installation set up and am now trying to change the location where the install stores imported and created files.

I opened the config file universe_wsgi.ini and did the following:

- Removed the ‘#’ mark from ‘#file_path = database/files’

- Changed value of file_path to the absolute path of an accessible, readable/writable location

- Saved changes

Despite this, the install still stores files in database/files. Is there a step I’m missing? Does the setup procedure (setup.sh & run.sh) need to be run again?

I also intend to change the database from the SQLite default to an existing database, so I assume the steps to change the file_path also apply to database_connection.

Thank you for your time.
