Hello,

Björn is exactly right. Link the data to Galaxy as described on the wiki page he posted.

If you want to run FTP server with Galaxy (it is not included by default) you have to install and configure it yourself. Here is a wikipage that will show you how to do it.
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Upload%20via%20FTP

However if you plan to work with such large files on local machine you might easily end up having to wait for a loooooong time, depending on what you plan to do with it and what are specifications of the machine. Consider cloud (https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/CloudMan) or public instance (usegalaxy.org).

Hi Do,

If you are running a loacl instance and you are admin you can use the data library and upload or even better link your data into a data library.

Hi,
I am unable to upload more than 3 GB data from local computer to local installation of galaxy.
How can I do that ?
I saw many of the tutorials which says about online upload.

My Galaxy is running on 127.0.0.7:8080
I tried FileZilla to upload file, but its says 
"Connection established, waiting for welcome message"
and after some time
