Hi Scott,
in which subdirectory of database/ are files being created?

The only other relevant directive in galaxy.ini should be:

#job_working_directory = database/job_working_directory

Cheers,
Nicola

Hello,

I'm trying to set our Galaxy instance to put Dataset and Temporary files on a Symlinked drive, as there isn't sufficient room on the Galaxy server to handle those files. However, I can't get it to work. Even though I've changed these settings, Galaxy still seems to be creating large numbers of files in our local database directory. Am I missing something here? I'm including the relevant section of my galaxy.ini:


# -- Files and directories

# Dataset files are stored in this directory.
#file_path = database/files
file_path = /data/galaxy/database/files

# Temporary files are stored in this directory.
#new_file_path = database/tmp
new_file_path = /data/galaxy/tmp


Thanks!
