I am trying to use galaxy for the first time and am running into some early problems. While trying to upload my file which is basically an fq containing illumina short reads, the file won't upload. When I try the fastq extension of the same file, it does but then the file isn't recognized by the galaxy hence it's like I have no file uploaded. Does anyone have an idea what's going on here. I've looked at the short tutorial on galaxy and it seems my file should be fine.

Hi Musa, If you're still having troubles uploading these files, could you share the relevant history with me (nate@bx.psu.edu)? Thanks, --nate
