my pc has already sent back the following WUs but on my tasks both WUs they have the ''in progress'' status.

I don't have any clue why this happened but perhaps you can help me.

The 2 WUs
1.
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=350217607

and
2.
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=349284191

thx

If you make a update project via the BOINC manager or the BOINC cmd tool (cd to the BOINC directory and type : boinc_cmd --project http://setiathome.berkeley.edu update), the WUs would be reported right.

Hi Dotsch,
thank you for your reply !

The problem isn't my client, both tasks are completed and uploaded normally but on my tasks page they have < in progress > status.

At my opinion something went wrong after the upload or whatever and they are still green colorized as not completed.

Are they uploaded and reported? If not, if they are still listed as "Ready to report" in your Tasks tab, they'll remain in < in progress > status on task page.

I've checked the seti directory too, both tasks are COMPLETED, UPLOADED AND REPORTED , but on my account they are still < in progress> status. I can't understand it!

I'd like to make clear at this point that i never touched any of the tasks, or files of my client.

Dann gehören sie wohl in diese Kategorie, nur dass diesmal das Problem beim Upload und nicht beim Download aufgetreten ist. Schade um die verschwendete Rechenzeit (und credits :-).

I just said that those apparantly belong to another type of ghost tasks (upload-wise instead of download).

I took a look inside the stdoutdae.txt and stdoutdae.old and i couldn't find them which means they are ghost tasks. They came never to my computer.

Gundolf ich bedanke mich vielmals für deinen hilfe!

Schönen tag noch.
