now after midnight berkeley time, i get also "internal server error" for the first time, looks like some automatic scripts/processes had been re/started. - Performance is not a simple linear function of the number of CPUs you throw at the problem. - |

Nothing much anyone can do with the problem except wait until tomorrow's outage by which time the guy's in the lab should have it sorted out. ;) Cheers. |

Well, I just hope the limited caches on my best rigs will keep them going until after tomorrow's outage, when hopefully they shall fix whatever malaise has overtaken the servers.

Hi Richard, I have that problem as well. It follows a 36hr+ service outage in my area:-( I've just managed to get back online, and s@h returns that whenever it tries to poll the server. But I did'nt know if this was related to the outage at my end or something at seti's end.. Nice to know it isnt at my end. Still I cant report tasks completed or get new ones:-/ Any idea whats up and when it might get sorted? Regards, Cliff, Been there, Done that, Still no damm T shirt! |

Hi, Boinc is 'probably' trying to report how many tasks have been completed and ask for new ones.. At least on my end thats what its trying to report.. completed tasks. Regards, Cliff, Been there, Done that, Still no damm T shirt! |

cc_config.xml file with <max_tasks_reported> made the trick. Sweet spot is 28 on my machine. - Best regards! - Sutaru Tsureku, team seti.international founder. - Optimize your PC for higher RAC. - SETI@home needs your help. - |

OK, to sum up my experience so far. I had a number of tasks to report (~30 per machine) when we came back from the electrical testing outage, around 20:30 UTC yesterday. I could upload them OK, but got 'internal server error' when I tried to report them. Slower machines, with fewer tasks to report, seemed OK. After some experimentation, it seems that setting a maximum number of tasks to report at a time - I chose 10 - overcame the server error. You can do that with BOINC v6.12 and above, but not with v6.10 or below. Once I got all the tasks to report, I was able to get new work as well - but I'm only asking for MB CUDA at the moment, can't speak for any other work. But the last time I was allocated any work was 01:16 UTC this morning. Every request since then has just got a simple 'project has no tasks available' - which doesn't match the Server Status Page. And there the story rests. No doubt we'll work out more of the picture as the day wears on, so we can present the staff with a full diagnosis when they report for maintenance duties this afternoon ;-) |

May I point out that the 284k ready to send value is 17h old? Result creation rate (being updated) is virtually zero. Servers etc.may be showing green but something is clearly not working. I doubt anything will move before maintenance. I'm not the Pope. I don't speak Ex Cathedra! |

Same here. Last download @01:09 UTC. Only diff is I've been asking for CPU work too (and not getting any)... Are the stats on the Server Status Page 17hrs old? If so, maybe the servers have run dry and we just can't see it. Edit: Beaten by Lady Luck |

Most likely - resends are being issued so that bit (feeder/scheduler) isn't dead. I'm not the Pope. I don't speak Ex Cathedra! |

Is this the first time they've used Synergy for Scheduling? And I'm out of GPU work. AndrewM |

Seti Beta is still alive too, just reported 35 tasks there no problem, but can't do 79 tasks here, Claggy |

Is this the first time they've used Synergy for Scheduling? Good spot. I noticed a flicker - a change in that column when I refreshed the page - last night, but I can't remember which host was doing scheduling before. The WayBack Machine says Bane was doing it on 15 July 2011, but that probably doesn't help much... |

I was still having the issue (Internal server error) this morning on two of my 6 machines. Reporting in batches of 10 (via cc_config.xml parameter) permitted me to report all tasks. Thanks for the tip. Cheers, Chris |

Is this the first time they've used Synergy for Scheduling? Perhaps they are already making a hole for the new servers by taking some of the slower servers out of the mix. |

Is this the first time they've used Synergy for Scheduling? That could be, but it is 50/50 on bruno going belly up. Until we are told by the guys we won't really know. Should we starting a betting pool on what happened with the proceeds to go to the guys as a donation?

If you use BoincRescheduler you and your wing men will receive less credit for the WU, something like (1/3 or less credit per WU or even less). I don´t know if there are any way to avoid that. |
