Am crunching for Folding@home and World Community Grid (Human Proteome Folding phase 2) in the meantime.. Hope this delay is because they're working on a new improved version, or a new project, and not just some random hardware failure.

just let it ride, or suspend communication for a few hours and try again.
i see the same thing on my messages as well.

home page had this note,

Sunday, January 06, 2008 9:00 AM
Our database server lost power accidentally as work was being done on the rack. We are back up and running now.


Now it looks like there is something else going on, there are Ready to send 73,580 tasks on the server and the main page says [ Scheduler running ] Queued: 45,698. So there must be some sort of comms issue now.

I'm currently seeing:

Tue 06 Jan 2009 05:02:47 PM EST|rosetta@home|Sending scheduler request to http://srv4.bakerlab.org/rosetta_cgi/cgi

Tue 06 Jan 2009 05:04:49 PM EST|rosetta@home|No schedulers responded

Just a repeat of the weekends failure.

Sit back and wait it out..that's all there is to do.
When they get the problem fixed then you will get work.
Boinc manager will keep delaying the contact time every time it encounters a error. I have had failures all night (european time) so its backed off to 2hrs before trying to communicate again.

Just a repeat of the weekends failure.

No, the symptoms are different. According to the status page, there is now plenty of work and everything is green, but my machines are getting "Scheduler request to http://srv4.bakerlab.org/rosetta_cgi/cgi failed with a return value of -182" errors when they try to download work.

Sit back and wait it out..that's all there is to do.

On the home page they say "We are back up and running now." It sounds like they may think things are running properly, in which case some people need to post and tell them things are not running properly.

the external interface to our upload/download servers is currently down. Keith (our sys admin guru) is aware of the issue but cannot fix it until he gets in tomorrow. It is related to the database server issue we had. The connection must have been pulled accidentally when work was being done on the rack.

Sorry for any inconvenience. I imagine our servers are going to be quite busy tomorrow.

Hi

10:47 am here - still getting this error:

I assume the issue is still to be worked on ?

I've now gotten some work (although the servers do indeed seem pretty busy at the moment).

It's clear someone must have been working very hard into the wee hours of the morning to get things working. Thanks.

Guys the project is based in Seattle and that is -8 hrs GMT/UTC time.
Current time in Belgium is 11.28 am and back in Seattle it is 2.28am.
There won't be a resolution to the problem described below for at least another 6 hours minimum and perhaps longer. I would set your project status to 'no new tasks' for now to save your self a long list of failure messages. Take that setting off later today once they have solved the problem listed in DEK's message.

yes.. looks like the make work servers are offline or out of jobs to send, we are stuck with no new work for at least 7 hours. I suggest the next time you get connected you download about 3-4 days of extra work. Then you can survive this problem if it happens again.

I've tried to download 3-4 days worth of work before. Both times my pc crashed(In the last week). Couldn't even use asr to recover. Had to reformat and start over.

I have 3 pages of wu's, that my pc will not do. I'm sure they'll reassign them to other people, eventually.

Oh yes, if you look the units are probably already marked with an error message on your list and they could even be sent out already to a different person.
