UCSC Genome Browser Custom Track Blank

Question

[Daniel]

Hello,

I have a bigwig (.bw) file which I can properly view on IGV. IGV makes it very difficult to edit the figure nicely so I am trying to view it in the UCSC genome browser. I uploaded my data to cyverse and used the custom track line here:

track type=bigWig name=“DMSO” color=255,255,255 visibility=2 bigDataUrl=https://data.cyverse.org/myDataURL/DMSO.bw

However, this successfully uploads but shows no shape/peaks. I believe some data is there though, because if I hover over the empty white-space, numbers appear around my cursor. Could anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Sorry for my ignorance.

Thank you so much.

wrong URL:

wget -O - https://data.cyverse.org/myDataURL/DMSO.bw

Hahaha sorry, I should have said the URL is fake (I can't share the data). But I can confirm it works, because when I copy/paste it into a browser the data can be downloaded. That same data then shows peaks on IGV.
