    upload > 30 GB file on Galaxy

    Hi all,

    Has anyone successfully uploaded files > 30 GB onto Galaxy? I tried it a few times using ftp commands on a unix cluster. The first two times, ftp stopped at 12 GB. The third time it stopped at 28 GB.

    It gives me an error message: "broken pipe". I am not sure its the problem of the cluster that I am using or Galaxy.

    I was think to break my file into smaller files, then upload them one by one. Then join them on Galaxy. Does anyone know what program on Galaxy merges several fastq files into a single one?

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    -Eric

    The generic text file concatenation tool in Galaxy can be used to combined multiple FASTQ files.

      This means your connection was broken and could be do to a firewall or something with your configuration. You could try ftp in passive mode and see if that works (the command is "pftp"). Otherwise, I would try to split the files and upload them. You can then use the "-i" flag with ftp to upload them all without prompting.

        U can consider running alightment of split fastq files before merging bam files .. If upload is slow

          "broken pipe" means the network is disconnected. This is very common after a long time...

              Hi Guys,
              I just installed galaxy but I could not upload any files using Get Data->Upload files from computer . The error showing is

              An error occurred running this job: Traceback (most recent call last):
              File "/export/home/deepthi/galaxy-dist/tools/data_source/upload.py", line 10, in ?
              import galaxy.model
              File "/export/home/deepthi/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/model/__init__.py", line 13, in ?
              import galaxy.datatyp

              Is it something problem with the python eggs?

                Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
                by SEQadmin2


                I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

                Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

                From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
                by SEQadmin2


                Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


                The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
