Hi Rich, Sorry for the delayed reply, this message didn't get routed correctly. Next time, please just send directly "to" as "galaxy-user@bx.psu.edu". For the tar question, unfortunately this is not supported. Instead use: .gzip, .bz, bzip2, or single-file .zip. http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Learn/Upload%20via%20FTP Hopefully you have worked this out already, but I wanted to give you confirmation, Take care, Jen Galaxy team On 12/13/11 8:30 AM, Richard Mark White wrote:

Hi, My seq core returns FASTQ files to me in *.txt.tar.gz format. When I upload this to galaxy, it unzips, but it is apparently still TAR'd and cannot be read. Is it possible to upload this format, or do I need to untar and unzip it first (which is less than ideal)?
