I am trying to move my histories from the galaxy server at psu to the one at the Ratsch lab (http://galaxy.tuebingen.mpg.de) but all my attempts seem to be taking forever. I have tried moving the whole set or individual parts of it but with no success. From the Ratsch lab server I get the following message: The resource could not be found. File Not Found (/home/galaxy/galaxy-2.1.2009/database/files/064/dataset_64040.dat).

Any ideas?

The first question it to determine whether the problem is in exporting the history or importing the history. When you click on the link provided by Galaxy for exporting the history, do you get a valid gzipped tar file that you can unpack and view? Within the unpacked directory, is there a datasets directory with a large number of non-zero size files? If not, the problem is likely with the public/PSU server. If so, the problem is probably with the Ratsch Galaxy server. Can you determine which server is problematic? Also, if this doesn't make much sense to you, you can share your history with me (Options --> Share/Publish) and I can take a look myself. Thanks, J.
