Hi,
well I know I will get my credits only after three different results will be uploaded of same wu.

but now i encountered:
after uploading a result, workunit is still be claimed "in progress" (results for host and normal results).
But another one got uploaded and was recognized as
over/success/done and is shown up in "pending credits" - what it should be (compared to boinc test)

Same happens to about 5 results uploaded by another (linux) client. They don't show up as pending, but still in progress :-(
Are these results lost now?

What can I do?

Was the WU only uploaded, or uploaded/reported?

Look in the BOINC GUI to see if these WUs are shown as "ready to report". Until WUs are reported, you will not see any change on your account page.

Uploading results are a two step process with BOINC. After a WU is completed, the results are uploaded. Then the results need to be reported.

This is either done automatically when you ask for more work, or 6 hours before the WUs expiration date. Whichever comes first. Or, you can manually force a report by right clicking on the project in the the "Projects" tab, and selecting "update".

OK, i missed that.

So on windows I know what to do.
On linux - how can I force it to report the results?
Is stopping and restarting the only (manually forced) way to do that?

(I know - this is OT here, so if no answer I will ask in linux related seti board)

thx anyway
Anders

Yeah, sorry Anders. I have no idea how to do in with Linux. :(

ok, so I have about 10 results that say "ready to report", is this still because of the stat server being down? and also, what if your results expire before the server is back up?

Results will be reported automatically when the first of: The next queue fill from that project is attempted, 24 hours till deadline, completion of the result if less than 24 hours from deadline, or a manual update occurs. If the servers have been down, then the replacement has not been generated, sent, crunched, returned, and reported to knock out any possibility of getting credit and you should still get credit for a useful result. If this occurs, the replacement will not be sent if it has not been sent already.
