Hi Ciara, Galaxy supports compressed files like gz [1] by default. Keep in mind that large files like yours are not guaranteed to upload properly, please use other techniques to get your data in galaxy. For example with FTP: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/FTPUpload Hope that helps, Bjoern [1] .gz/.gzip, .bz/.bzip, .bz2/.bzip2, zip
Hi all,
My colleague tried to upload via filesystem path a file with an approximate size of 2GB. It was a compressed file (filename.fq.gz). No error was reported, so I thought everything went fine, but when he tried running a tool, the uploaded file did not show in the input dropdown. But when he tried again, this time using an uncompressed file, every thing worked well. Now to my question: by default, can Galaxy accept and use compressed files? Or do I have to change something in its configuration just to do so?
Thanks for the help!
