I checked my first 20 pendings and found 4 where both results are in but validation has not happened.

The validators will be struggling with the number of reported tasks which will be far worse than a normal weekly outage. Downloads have really taken a hit, its taking hours to get an MB down, and as for APs.... Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

The validators will be struggling with the number of reported tasks which will be far worse than a normal weekly outage. And I don't see things easing up much until at least the end of the week. Even IF they decide to forgo the usual maintenance outage tomorrow, seeing as how everything was just rebooted. They may still need it if they did not do their usual db cleanups and compression, however. And unfortunately, the shorties being sent out are not enhancing the recovery.

I gave up on connecting my XP machine to Ubuntu via Firewire. I finally broke down and installed Squid in Ubuntu. I actually managed to get Squid to handle the SETI downloads on my XP machine. No More Download Stalls with XP. I do need to look into configuring Squid to handle the SETI uploads and Scheduler requests though. Just like with many of the HTTP proxies, Squid doesn't do Uploads & Scheduler requests. Kinda makes you think many of those HTTP proxies are running Squid. My new HTTP Proxy is 192.168.1.4:5555. Oh, no more of those 'Permanent HTTP Download Errors' either... 2/25/2013 1:21:52 PM | | Suspending network activity - user request 2/25/2013 1:22:00 PM | | Using proxy info from GUI 2/25/2013 1:22:00 PM | | Using HTTP proxy 192.168.1.4:5555 2/25/2013 1:22:05 PM | | Resuming network activity 2/25/2013 1:22:05 PM | SETI@home | Started download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P1_00172_20130225_23241.wu 2/25/2013 1:22:05 PM | SETI@home | Started download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P0_00181_20130225_21583.wu 2/25/2013 1:22:05 PM | SETI@home | Started download of ap_16my12aa_B1_P1_00214_20130225_21107.wu 2/25/2013 1:22:05 PM | SETI@home | Started download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P0_00206_20130225_21583.wu 2/25/2013 1:22:05 PM | SETI@home | Started download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P1_00198_20130225_23241.wu 2/25/2013 1:26:40 PM | SETI@home | Sending scheduler request: To fetch work. 2/25/2013 1:26:40 PM | SETI@home | Requesting new tasks for CPU and NVIDIA and ATI 2/25/2013 1:26:41 PM | SETI@home | Scheduler request failed: Error 417 2/25/2013 1:26:49 PM | SETI@home | Computation for task 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2 finished 2/25/2013 1:26:49 PM | SETI@home | Starting task 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.108_2 using setiathome_enhanced version 609 (cuda23) in slot 3 2/25/2013 1:26:51 PM | SETI@home | Started upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:26:53 PM | SETI@home | Project file upload handler is missing 2/25/2013 1:26:53 PM | SETI@home | Backing off 3 min 39 sec on upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:28:01 PM | SETI@home | Started upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:28:04 PM | SETI@home | Project file upload handler is missing 2/25/2013 1:28:04 PM | SETI@home | Backing off 5 min 19 sec on upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:30:31 PM | SETI@home | Started upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:30:33 PM | SETI@home | Project file upload handler is missing 2/25/2013 1:30:33 PM | SETI@home | Backing off 14 min 58 sec on upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:32:53 PM | SETI@home | Finished download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P1_00172_20130225_23241.wu 2/25/2013 1:32:53 PM | SETI@home | Finished download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P0_00181_20130225_21583.wu 2/25/2013 1:33:01 PM | SETI@home | Started upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:33:04 PM | SETI@home | Finished upload of 18se12ab.27382.24607.8.10.49_2_0 2/25/2013 1:33:04 PM | SETI@home | Sending scheduler request: To fetch work. 2/25/2013 1:33:04 PM | SETI@home | Reporting 1 completed tasks 2/25/2013 1:33:04 PM | SETI@home | Requesting new tasks for CPU and NVIDIA and ATI 2/25/2013 1:33:05 PM | SETI@home | Scheduler request failed: Error 417 2/25/2013 1:34:02 PM | SETI@home | Finished download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P1_00198_20130225_23241.wu 2/25/2013 1:34:04 PM | SETI@home | Finished download of ap_16my12aa_B1_P1_00214_20130225_21107.wu 2/25/2013 1:34:46 PM | SETI@home | Finished download of ap_16my12aa_B2_P0_00206_20130225_21583.wu 2/25/2013 1:35:01 PM | | Using proxy info from GUI 2/25/2013 1:35:01 PM | | Not using a proxy ... |

Somethin' funny going on.... The server status page has not updated for an hour. That's usually not a good sign. Mebbe just generating the daily stats dump? EDIT... Finally updated...hopefully that's the end of that particular panic. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

This morning's panic wasn't a panic - it was me upgrading the OS on the master science database server. The whole successful operation took about 90 minutes, during which some machines/processes hung for a bit. Expect a few more of those, which I can't always schedule during the normal Tuesday outages if I want to finish these upgrades already. - Matt -- BOINC/SETI@home network/web/science/development person -- "Any idiot can have a good idea.

Upgrades are GOOD , Keep on keeping on Matt ! Does your statement mean that there is still going to be a tuesday outage after the last weekend downtime ? |

Question. Why did the server problem 81 get locked. The last post showed an awesome machine. So I will comment here. WOW, WOW,WOW, I want one. I was wondering how he had 32 threads going out a 8 core. Did not expect two cpus. It just looks so clean. Now back to server problems. All I have been doing for 2 days is baby sitting this machine. Here is how it goes. Download 2 k and wait five minutes, stall, Shut down connection, restart connection. Download 2 k , stall. Repeat. I have tried to flush the dns and no joy there. What probably will fix this is a proxy. I have tried several but now I can seem to get one going. Does anyone have a good proxy address that I can use? Siv has given me some help but its the stalls that are beginning to give me more gray hair Thanks in advance. Michael Miles |

have a bunch of GPU units trying to download , so far has taken a couple of hours to download about 6, and they are only short ones. looks like it's going to be a long time before things are back to the so called normal level |

have a bunch of GPU units trying to download , so far has taken a couple of hours to download about 6, and they are only short ones. Strange, I have 3 machines crunching S@H and when I got up this morning 08:00 UTC all three had dowloaded their maximum WU's. I have been out most of the day and all 3 have maintained maximum WU's!! So as far as I am concerned there are no problems. In fact I am surprised at how fast it has recovered form the weekend. |

@ pending vs. validated: I've noticed that the tasks are getting validated fairly quickly, but it can be a few minutes, at least for APs anyway. I reported 3 of them this morning and went and checked the tasks page within a minute and they were pending, and I waited 30 seconds and hit refresh and they were validated. Same thing just happened again for reporting two more APs a few minutes ago, but it took about 4 minutes instead. Before the weekend's downtime, it was nearly instant. It may work itself out soon.
