chicken app still BROKE No. The application is perfectly good. The BOINC server is broken. Dublin, California Team: SETI.USA |

The optimized app is fine. All my PCs are using one and have been sporadically getting work. I used the instructions at the beginning of this thread: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=39636 |

Well, almost everything is back to normal for me tonight... I had a phase where one linux client could upload and not report, while the other one could report but not upload. The nth restart seemed to fix it, though could also be as a result of seti server twiddling... Now the only outstanding machine is a W2K behind NAT that could get work and report but has been stuck trying to upload one result all night, while it uploaded another one. 23/05/2007 04:59:52 [file_xfer] Started upload of file 11fe05aa.10139.18304.184644.3.120_1_0 23/05/2007 05:02:54 Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site 23/05/2007 05:02:54 [file_xfer] Temporarily failed upload of 11fe05aa.10139.18304.184644.3.120_1_0: http error 23/05/2007 05:02:54 Backing off 1 hr 8 min 18 sec on upload of file 11fe05aa.10139.18304.184644.3.120_1_0 23/05/2007 05:02:56 Access to reference site succeeded - project servers may be temporarily down. The progress shows 90% of the result is uploaded in the first second then maybe a few more bytes get through over the next couple of minutes before timing out. This is silly because I know the servers are up and performing well. Perhaps the router at seti has taken a dislike to masqueraded IP? Not sure where the logic is, but it is elusive. All the other 3 machines are now fine at last, (all machines with app_info.xml renamed.) |

I see a couple of things that make no sense... Matt has posted many times they are taking old stuff offline (SUN) and migrating to Nix... not to meniton issues with getting old Sun code to compile under NIX... I concur with Pappa on this. We have to be patient. I have crunched for SETI for nearly seven years, and they have always gotten things back up and running smoothly. We now have servers and code that have run to the end of their life span. I am very thankful that Eric et al have been able to keep things running as well as they have. SETI needs our help to keep going. They need hardware, software, and money to keep things running. Instead of yelling at them we should be trying to help them in any way we can. I for one have not been in a position to help out yet as I don't have the type of hardware they need and am short on funds myself but when I get into better position you can bet the first thing I am going to do is to make a donation to this cause! What you do today you will have to live with tonight |

I requested an update of SAH since there were 3 results waiting for u/l in the Transfers tab. OK, the earliest one will expire is May 31, so that's not a problem, still . . . . I asked on another forum and I'll ask here as well; how do I reduce the number of failing u/l attempts? Every 3 days was suggested. I'd be happy with twice a day. But in the current crisis (?) everyone banging the servers is doing no good. I have an always on connection, so that's not a problem, but neither do I want to contribute to what is effectively a DDOS on SAH. Where do I find the parameters to do half day or every day or even every other day connections? |

If you are using anonymous platform by necessity, the only option is to join a second project that has an app that runs on your platform. Unfortunately SETI is the only opensource BOINC project that I know of. Meaning that when you have to use anonymous platform by necessity (because you've got some "alien" platform, as I do), it's pretty much "SETI or nothing"... If only other projects were a bit less stubborn wrt opensourcing their code :P Thanks for your efforts in trying to bring everything back to normal anyway! |

How did my name get into this:-) Hey, I do not work at S@H, although I would gladly do so. But I still think that a present for the guys that DO work there is a splendid idea. I still think that sending some money to someone living close by who can walk up to them with a lardy big kegg of brewski would say it all. Hey Pappa! Aren't you close? Carl It is SEXY to DONATE!

Not quite. ;-) But I'm sure if you really want to give the guys a round (omgang)(kegg), it can be arranged. ;-D Take a look at these pics. "I'm trying to maintain a shred of dignity in this world." - Me |

Yepp, I am sure. I've even started a thread about it over at number crunching to get it started:-) I have pledged to send the money for a big flak med öl:-) And I have also asked if more people would like to send other party paraphernalia! Carl It is SEXY to DONATE! Skype = demiurg2 |

I detached/attached because of app.xml problem and that Bonic wasn't asking for work from seti. Since then all I get is HTTP internal server error |

I still haven't touched my computers and I've downloaded units today, the last wuid=130466093 was at 17:18 UTC. And yes I have had lots of server/HTTP errors and no work from project msgs. Andy |

just a note..I delete the 3 chicken files...then detach/attach to get rid of the ghost WU's..then I usually have to hit reset project to get a download of WU's...then stop BOINC...and hit restore from the recycle bin...then restart BOINC...to stop further ghost WU's from downloading...I have taken to putting no new tasks in SETI until my WU's are finished..just my thoughts.. have the time to mess with it... user stats |
