It appears from looking at my statistics that my computer quit uploading data on 23 Feb. The graph is flat lined. How do I get it to send? It seems to still be crunching at a modest pace.

Your last upload was on 13 Mar 2009 0:06:33 UTC. The task is marked as successful but not validated yet. Your last three tasks (since 24 Feb 2009 16:44:18 UTC) are "pending", that means the second host assigned for the WorkUnit hasn't finished the calculations yet, which is needed to validate each result.

You can see that on your computer's task list, which is also reachable through Your computers via the ACCOUNT link on top of this page.

Thanks Jahn,

In nearly 10 years I've never seen a daily number crunch result failing to be represented the next day or two as credit earned. Since three weeks have gone by without a credit change I was concerned that there was a software issue. So, it seems there is nothing I need to do here but develop patience!

Yes, the long wait is probably caused by the long computing times of AstroPulse and the fact that the task of at least one work unit errored out at your wing person. The one you are crunching just now got even resent three times. (You can see that if you click on the Work unit ID in your task list.)

By the way, one of the three meanwhile is validated, so if you force an update now, your "flat line" will make a jump up :-)
