I was able to return all of my completed ones but it said there are no new tasks to download, which is not surprising as EVERYONE now wants units! ID: 52216 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

OK -- what has worked for me is a detach and rejoin at the workstation. This means any previously completed but not reported work (as none of us knew exactly when the server changeover was going to happen) is lost, but new work is available and the http failure is resolved. I don't know the specifics of why that works and a reset doesn't work, but I'm sure some of the other users can speculate on this and perhaps let the folks at RPI know. No WU for more than 12 days. reset and re-attach the project didn't help also: transitioner milkyway Not Running milkyway_purge milkyway Not Running ID: 52229 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Could well be the case (I wonder if that is something that could have been avoided - possibly not). The good news here with the 'detatch' approach, here is a case where the hyper short caches for GPU's actually mitigates. Even those with completed GPU work lose less than an hour of processed results. For my 4850's it is about an hour (though for most of them I suspended processing before the 12 units were completed). Maybe the new server is at a new ip address, and dns is taking its time. ID: 52234 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I'll give it a little before I detach/reattach. It also wouldn't upload the one completed wu I had, but when I checked under my account it was listed and credited, yet it remained in Boinc until I reset MW. Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. ID: 52239 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
