Now I'm unable to upload completed work and download new works.

Message reported by boinc are:

Message 241592 - Posted: 3 Feb 2006, 18:21:31 UTC
Last modified: 3 Feb 2006, 18:22:05 UTC

After reading several other threads addressing similar problems, I found an answer for me that worked like a charm for ALL my computers: Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP Professional: MS Knowledgebase article See Solution 1

Essentially the problem seems to be with a "black hole router" somewhere between my computers and the setiathome server. The three solutions include 1) a simple registry edit, 2) asking the router to be changed, or 3) limiting all packet sizes with a universal MTU size that will pass through the black hole router. Of these, the first is simplest and best.

Solution 1:
1. Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).

2. Locate the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\tcpip\\parameters

3. On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following registry value:
Value Name: EnablePMTUBHDetect
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1

4. Quit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.

Here's the description from the Microsoft Knowledgebase:

"On a TCP/IP-based wide area network (WAN), communication over some routes may fail if an intermediate network segment has a maximum packet size that is smaller than the maximum packet size of the communicating hosts--and if the router does not send an appropriate Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) response to this condition or if a firewall on the path drops such a response. Such a router is sometimes known as a "black hole" router.

You can locate a black hole router by using the Ping utility, which is a standard utility that is installed with the Microsoft Windows TCP/IP protocol. You can then use one of three methods of fixing or working around black hole routers.

When a network router receives a packet that is larger than the size of the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of the next segment of a communications network, and that packet's IP layer "don't fragment" bit is flagged, the router is expected to send an ICMP "destination unreachable" message back to the sending host.

If the router does not send a message, the packet might be dropped, causing a variety of errors that vary with the program that is communicating over the unsuccessful link. (These errors do not occur if a program connects to a computer on a local subnet.) The behavior may seem intermittent, but closer examination shows that the behavior can be reproduced, for example, by having a client read a large file that is sent from a remote host. "

There were a few -106 errors when the SetiatHome servers were actually down, but then all clients were able to report finished workunits and download new ones!

Yippee!

Everything's fine with your BOINC. There's wasn't work at that moment available. Just be patient. The Scheduler request itself was fine.

But ... you said, you've installed the new version. So why there's v4.45 at start message?

There's v.4.45 because I have tried to use the old version
Now:
- I have reinstalled the new version.
- I' have reset my project
- BOINC has dowloaded 2 unit
- I' have completed the new 2 unit

But I' have the same problem uploading the completed unit and downloading other unit.

Is everything fine ?

Here the new messages with "return value of 500"

Thank you

Part of your problem today would be that the servers were down for backup and maintenance for about four hours, starting at about 20:00 UTC. Nobody could get through, and there is always a traffic jam for several hours afterwards as the backlogged work keeps pounding at the gates. If this is still happening in the morning, though, one solution that has helped some is to use a public proxy to connect. You can find a list of them at this web site, you may have to experiment before you get one that would work for you.
The proxy settings in the BOINC manager are under Options in the menu bar, find the HTTP Proxy tab.

You are awesome dmbott. I tried reinstalling and everything but nothing worked. I tried your registry edit and I am now back up and number crunching. Thanks again!
