This would work for both .dat and tmp files? I was thinking about deleting them manually but the idea of them being connected to a database was bothering me. Other than minor errors, will there be no other serious repercussions? Thanks for the reply! DM On Thu, Apr 19, 2012 at 1:34 PM, JIE CHEN <jiechenable1987@gmail.com> wrote:

Of course. I deleted lots of times. But be careful if some of the files are important. Once you deleted them, all the files will disappear from the user's history(or when you open them, you will run into errors). You should know the files you are deleting.

Hi there,

I would just like to ask if I could just directly delete the .dat files from the database folder of Galaxy (or even just the tmp files). I am not allowed to delete any other file from the computer other than the ones in galaxy-dist. I have tried running the cleanup scripts, but since the disk is already full, I am experiencing some problems with the cleanup. I'm just new to using this application, so any help would greatly be appreciated.

Cheers,

Michelle
