I think that in this time won't happens a validate error, it means a loss of info in the server, how could be saved this occurrence, that boinc client keep a copy of the results until the servers sends a schedule of the crunched unit has been well processed, other wise the client would resend once again the result, until this will be well processed by the server, that's because when we see something like this in our work, seems like wasted time in our computers.

other will be the finished crunched units, that can not be uploaded by means of server problems, what happens if this results cross the deadline report date?, there should be any improvement in boinc client stating the real finishing computing time of the unit, because this is not as problem of our computer, I think it's a problem of the servers.

I am not quite certain that I understand the question, but I will answer what I believe to be the question.

If a result has not been returned by the deadline, it is assumed to be abandoned, and it will be re-issued to some other host. The upload problems that we have been having recently are not the norm.

I've seen in forun that it's a spot problem.

the other one, it's when you have computed one unit and submited it, you found in your account credits that it marked as "validate eror", the meaning of validate error as per SETI host it's that the results could be lost in server, by I don't know the reason, and you have no credit for this reason, that it's not your problem, it's SETI server problem, and, question, what can you do?
