My new Boinc wanted to transmit a result, but had problems. At one time it was showing a transfer- progress of 106 %! After this I controlled my results, but this workunit was not counted and i didn't find it at the website, too. Is the server doing this permanently? Should I better stop the network- access for a while until boinc- server is working again?
Sorry for my bad english ;-)

Check in your Boinc Manager, tab Work, if the unit is there sitting and waiting for "Ready to report". If it is, then it's not totally gone yet.

BOINC uses a two way delivery system. First you upload the work unit, then you report it to the server.

It is not there any more. That was the reason to ask for help. Maybe it is lost... but should I stop network- connection now until server is ok? There are more results waiting to be transmitted...

I see a wu returned and reported at 00:19 today/tonite, that's less than an hour ago.

If you are on a broadband connection, let it be. Don't disconnect, don't hit "Update" to try again. BOINC will try to "call home" periodically, until it connects. I came home this evening to find failed connections from this afternoon in the message log, but evenutally a success.

If you're on a dial-up, stopping the network connection until tomorrow might be the better option. Unless you're near the deadline, uploading now or a bit later will make no difference.

Thank you, I'm on a broadband- connection. I already found the "lost" wu on the result- page. So everything is fine here :-)
