Sorry @nicole_g Missed your post earlier. The servers are still very busy. Which public Galaxy server is “fastest” can vary. I suspect your jobs already completed by now – but people are still asking if there are delays in new posts and are being redirected to prior Q&A through the tag “server-side-delays”. [Usegalaxy.org](http://Usegalaxy.org) is a bit slower right now – it depends on the tool – and that will change over time. - If a dataset (job) is gray, then the inputs have not been evaluated yet. Meaning, delays are not due to problems with the inputs. - If a dataset (job) is blue, then that means it attempted to run but there was a problem with the inputs, and you’ll need to review the jobs that are creating the inputs – something went wrong upstream. The expanded dataset will have more comments about what went wrong but you’ll need to do the full detective work to find and fix the input problems. - If a dataset (job) is red, that means it errored out. That could indicate an input problem. Try at least one rerun to eliminate a transient server issue, then if it fails again, check your inputs. Help for checking inputs: > [@Troubleshooting resources for errors or unexpected results](https://help.galaxyproject.org/t/troubleshooting-resources-for-errors-or-unexpected-results/42): > > Check to see if there is a known usegalaxy.\* server issue. Server Status: [https://status.galaxyproject.org/](https://status.galaxyproject.org/) If the server was down when you first ran your job, try a rerun once back up. A rerun can also eliminate transient server issues too short in duration to trigger a statuspage warning. Next, start by reviewing the troubleshooting FAQ. Common reasons and solutions for tool errors are explained. Most job errors can be resolved by correcting your input data’s format/content.
