Sorry, I couldn't find a way of posting a reply on the thread. There was an only option of replying to author. How can I post my reply so that it appears in publicly visible list? Yes, I restarted, and in the drop-down, there are only "import from your current history" and "upload files" Sanjar. On 02/05/2013 06:19 PM, Dannon Baker wrote:
Have you restarted your galaxy instance after changing the setting? And, in that drop-down, can you confirm that 'filesystem paths' is not an option?
Also, please keep conversations on-list so that others might be able to help and/or benefit from the exchange.

I set allow_library_path_paste = True in universe_wsgi.ini and still don't have the option of copying locally on manage data libraries page.

Should I set some other parameters to True?
<quote author='Dannon Baker'> The absolute fastest method would be to enable filepath upload for data libraries (in universe_wsgi.ini -- allow_library_path_paste = True). Once that's set, you can paste the absolute file path into the upload box, and check the box for not copying the data. This will leave the data where it is on the external drive, though it will make it available in the Data Library. Obviously if you use this method, you'll need to have that external drive attached (and always at the same mount point) to use the data.
If you actually *do* want to copy this data off the external drive, simply don't check that 'no copy' checkbox and the data will be copied directly through the filesystem and not uploaded.
