I'm confused if files are uploaded through the Galaxy server or through Apache?

I already set up the Apache proxy explained here: http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Apache%20Proxy (Does that affect uploads?)

My goal is to let users upload as large of files as possible through HTTP.

So far I just tested and upload of a 140MB file and I got this error after a couple of minutes:

1: dsim-all-chromosome-r1.3.fasta.msg.updated.fasta 0 bytes An error occurred running this job:Traceback (most recent call last): File "/misc/local/galaxy/galaxy-dist/tools/data_source/upload.py", line 384, in <module> __main__() File "/misc/local/galaxy/galaxy-dist/tools/data_source/upload.py", line 359, in __main__ registry.load_datat

I see this information in the bug report:

Also here is what /scratch/galaxy looks like. It seems like the file it mentions does exist??

ls -lh /scratch/galaxy/
