The uploader on the website is not taking in any files. Can anyone point me to the issue or help me why it is not working.

Thanks!

Hi @bdhakal

I can now reproduce the **Upload** problem/delay with local file browsing at [UseGalaxy.org](http://UseGalaxy.org). And, someone else reported it here: [usegalaxy.org is super slow: 11/8/2022 Confirmed job delays, please leave queued jobs queued - #5 by jennaj](https://help.galaxyproject.org/t/usegalaxy-org-is-super-slow-11-8-2022-confirmed-job-delays-please-leave-queued-jobs-queued/8986/5)

More feedback soon, we are looking into what might be going on.

Thanks for reporting the issue!

Hi @jennaj @marten

I should have explained the issue better. But looks like @jennaj found the issue I was having. I was unable to upload any file using local file browsing option. I have seen the issue since the last few days.  
The uploader does not even start uploading the data. it just get stalled.

Thanks!

When I upload the file I also have this same issue, however after a while I get this error:  
"An error occurred with this dataset:

format data database [?](https://usegalaxy.org/#)

Unable to run this job due to a cluster error, please retry it later"

I am unsure if it is similar to your issue, but I thought it was worth clarifying my above comment.

Thank you!

Hi @cmpetit and @bdhakal

Thanks for the extra information! This is exactly what I found, too. We will be looking into this in a few hours US time tomorrow. Updates will post back to this thread until resolved.

**Upload (local file browsing)**

It looks like this at first using the Upload tool. Stalls for hours… I haven’t had an error result yet, but it will probably end up that way the same as yours did.

**Remote file loading (SRA example)**

This did already fail with a server-side error.
