Greetings,
I am a new user to Galaxy in general and have been using the main Galaxy server (http://usegalaxy.org/). So far I have been successfully uploading my data to the main Galaxy server through FTP. Previously, I used Fillezilla to upload my data and it working fine so far. I also have had success uploading my data to Galaxy.eu using the FTP but this few days, I could not connect to the server.
| Status: | Resolving address of ftp.usegalaxy.eu | 
| Status: | Connecting to 132.230.223.213:990… | 
| Error: | Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity | 
| Error: | Could not connect to server | 
| Status: | Waiting to retry… | 
 I read some of the previous post and the tutorial, it might be because of my internet connection. So I tried connect to the main server at the same time, it worked well, so does the problems come from my internet ? I’m a bit confused now. The connection keep failing and I also realised that there are not certificate popped up whenever I tried using the galaxy.eu. How do I changed the settings so I can find the certificate?
I checked all the settings and my login info also the same with the Galaxy, so I think no problems with it. Can anyone pointed of what should I do now?
Many thanks,
Amirah
             
            
              
              
              
            
            
           
          
            
            
              Hi @Amirah
the instructions to use the FTP server are available at this address, Galaxy Europe | FTP service instructions
The last part of the IP showed in your log, suggest me that you are using a different setting from the one described in the documentation above.
From a few days, we have also deployed a new upload mechanism through the web interface, so my suggestion is to give it a try as well.
Regard your question about the certificate, it’s not clear to me what you mean. The official URL of the European Galaxy server is https://usegalaxy.eu and is handled with an SSL certificate properly showed
             
            
              
              
              
            
            
           
          
            
            
              Hi @gmauro
Thank you for answering. I have tried again using the documentation you mentioned. However, I encountered this error now.

 Is my setting still incorrect or could be other issue, can you help pointed where do I go wrong?
             
            
              
              
              
            
            
           
          
            
            
              Not sure what could be but, before to go trying to debug the FTP connection, I strongly suggest you to try the upload tool from the web interface. With the new Galaxy release just deployed,  we integrated a new upload framework that should work pretty fine.
             
            
              
              
              
            
            
           
          
            
            
              Alright, thank you for your help.
I’m going to try the upload tool from the web interface and see how it goes.
