FTP connection fails at UseGalaxy.org: Server-side issue 02/18/2022

Workarounds for end-users:

Adjust the FTP settings to load data successfully to UseGalaxy.org.

  1. Client (Filezilla or other): Configure the connection to use "Require implicit FTP over TLS" (default may fail)
  • The application will present certificate pop-ups when connecting, and when transferring data
  1. Command-line: Connect using lftp with explicit FTPS or implicit FTPS

This ticket will close once resolved

How to recognize if the connection is failing:

  • The connection fails at the step where authorization credentials are verified.
  • No security "certification" pop-ups are presented from the client application.
  • The server denies the connection request with messages about a "time out".
  • Iflftp implicit FTPS file transfer reports certificate has expired, try using explicit FTPS instead.

Example message when using Filezilla as an FTP client and default settings (explicit FTPS):
