Thanks to Murphy and his law, while i was gone the permissions of our download directory got messed up, and all the read/write/execute permissions were gone -- this is probably why you couldn't download anything. Let me know if things are working now. ID: 1297 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I may get one that hangs out of about every 20 or so WUs. It is happening on both of my PCs. ID: 1557 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Last modified: 23 Jan 2008, 17:12:40 UTC I've just had 7 download failures with these kind of messages: 23/01/2008 17:00:44\|Milkyway@home\|Giving up on download of parameters_generated_1200663811_50130: file not found 23/01/2008 17:00:44\|Milkyway@home\|Giving up on download of parameters_generated_1200663818_50328: file not found All those since then have been fine. After looking deeper it seems that everyone else assigned these wus had similar failures. ID: 1579 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Aborted the stuck downloads (which all were a 3rd, 4th or 5th re-issue) and all is well again (until the next batch of stuck downloads hits) Join the #1 Aussie Alliance on MilkyWay!

The file left that didn't finish was 'paramaters'. It was this one: http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/workunit.php?wuid=2160610 It seems this is an ongoing problem with this unit, It says that its downloading to two computers that it has passed the deadline on.
