The method you tried "uploads" the file from your computer back to itself - making a copy as it goes with lots of overhead. You should probably consider the procedure here which allows you to avoid even making a copy on disk but point at the existing files already on the server: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Admin/Data%20Libraries/Uploading%20Library%20Files Peter ___________________________________________________________ The Galaxy User list should be used for the discussion of Galaxy analysis and other features on the public server at usegalaxy.org.
