SETI@home scheduler is down until further notice.

Thanks Gary and Rob for your feedback.

So far all is working fine again, GPU has been a busy beaver working through all the small Work Units and CPU (3 out of 4 Cores active on Seti) has been working on the big ones.

cheers

The best place to start troubleshooting on the scheduler is what has changed since the last time it was up and running. Hardware, software patching, software update? And is your system producing a dump file of some kind. Check your logs and your dump file to see where the problem is happening and go from there.

It's great that folks are getting some processing time, but sadly all of my computers have all of their work "ready to report" and it has been that way for several days. I tried to force an update but got the same old "server not found, project may be down for maintenance" or something like that. I will patiently wait for you to fix remaining problems to be resolved. Maybe then Work Units will return to normal processing? It is my hope !!!

Question: What happens to completed tasks that have gone beyond the deadline date and time but have not reported because of the server problem? I will have many completed tasks that have a deadline after today. Will they still be good tasks?

I suspect associated with this problem, I have seen a period with "bad gateway" for scheduler dialogue (see example below)

Rik: If u are using a proxy server, the proxy gateway got either overloaded and timed out, or they closed access to the Seti server because of demand.

strongly back .. My GPU are almost at first contact

I now have errors in my results, all of which are down to two periods of server downtime.

Because these appear as errors, I take it that my machine has been plodding away for no good reason.

I think I am. Therefore I am. I think.

For someone supposedly in such a high stratosphere of management the clouds have obviously blurred his concept of the operations of a non-profit volunteer organization; including the fact that SETI is run on donations, and the sheer will, commitment, strength and determination of volunteers.

If major corporate dollars were supporting such a project then the expectation of the project remaining bug free and permanently online would be higher.

Maybe he should volunteer corporate money, I mean real MONEY, to the project instead of bitching about it.

A patient volunteer

Nah, it's just E.T. trying to phone home. Wants to leave this Solar System before December 21, 2012. He will pickup Beautiful Blonds on the way out.

Down time Bites, but such is the life of Science. Maybe Murphy was really on to something. I broke out my Abbacus just in case the World goes to the proverbial H---.

I joined SETI just after Stardate or Planetary Report wrote the report on SETI. I imediately joined. I think that was in 8/99. But I seem to have lost credit for several years. How sad.
You guys that volunteer to struggle through this horrific problem, my hat is off to you. I do not have the knowledge to offer any results. Just go for it, and I will patiently await operations again.
Reading all the comments, I see I am not involved in MANY and would like to be involved. Where do I go to get logged in besides WCG?
