I don't see any reasons why this workunit could not be completed by other nodes... but the validator simply rejected all results because of Client downloading errors!? ID: 131454 ·

The network hiccupped and the client lost connection with Berkeley during the download 2. The file got corrupted during transfer. More than likely, it isn't the validator, these look like around the time the upload/download server failed. "Fiction reveals truth that reality obscures." -Jessamyn West ID: 131525 ·

There you can see the reason for zero credits: "Workunit error - check skipped" ID: 131605 ·

There you can see the reason for zero credits: "Workunit error - check skipped" Indeed. And the reason why the workunit was considered "erroneous" is because: >>>errors Too many error results And the errors are "Client error Downloading" So, computer 146672 and I got indeed punished because 6 more people can't get their downloads straight.

It's just that I am suddenly seeing many more of such WUs after the validator downtime than I've seen earlier. ID: 131880 ·
