Why is it that when the server goes "down" the status on the home page does not change? is it an interal issue with the server that is not bad enough to trigger a status change or is it that the server has to be "offline" completely?

It's confusing to see in messages that the server is down but the server status page is all green.

any ideas?

The status page is cached and updates every 10 minutes or so. On the homepage under "Server Status", you will see either "Scheduler running" or "Scheduler disabled." This page is not cached so it should be up-to-date. It obviously doesn't give specifics about each server daemon, but it will tell you if the project/scheduler is down.

This one dosen't seem to want to go home, all the failed ones went back no problem

but this result isn't moving, it's been trying for hours.

ahh thanks..i was referring to the server status page in my post.
so then what has been happening recently is a dameon is going down and causes the error messages we have been seeing. but the "whole" server is still running which is why we still see green on the server status page?

come on guys...this is getting old.....
do the lr tasks have bugs in them?
i havent had much luck with them lately.

I have completed 1 lr task under 1.87 and another under 1.88. Both came out valid.

I have a third lr underway on 1.90 and it seems to be going fine so far.

Greetings!

I am having intermittent problems uploading.
Some times the WU go on the first time.
Other times - it may take several retries.

I like in Florda and use a DSL and *assumed* that the network was not at fault.

I would like to test this with a ping.

First of all, what is the address of theupload server?
boinc.bakerlab.org
or
srv4.bakerlab.org

I tried a short test on each:




PING boinc.bakerlab.org (140.142.20.103): 100 data bytes
108 bytes from 140.142.20.103: icmp_seq=0 ttl=45 time=93 ms

I turned on debug on BOINC file transfer.

Suggestions??

As I take the 30 minutes to look at other posts and write this up, I find
that the WU uploaded..

Still, I would like some insight on the process....

Many thanks!!
Jay

Yes Jay srv4 is the upload server, and as you can see from your PING, it's responsivness is rather inconsistent. It is under heavy load and is still recovering from recent difficulties.

The BOINC software that you run on your machine is all set up for these eventualities. It will retry sending the file for you.

Thank you Mod.Sense for the informative response!!
I appreciate the time you take giving answers...
I don't always stay connected and usually connect;
enable network activity; get some coffee; do updates;
disable network activity; and disconnect....

Thanks again,
Jay

I'm not sure if I just got lucky, but I'd guess the servers finally caught up round about the time you posted. No error messages for upload or download in the last 15 hours and no re-tries.

I have copied these from the mini 1.90 thread so they might be seen by admin's.

As some people are still having problems.

You could try to reset project if you have not tried already, could not hurt!



I have just added Rosetta to the list on two boxes, one Windoze, one Linux and have this error on both. The project hasn't even started, not much to reset. Running BOINC 5.10.45

It looks like the system has slowed to a crawl once again

with the release of the new app!

My three are all having problems WITH U/L & D/L.

Hi.

Is there a problem with the validator now, i have a couple of tasks that have

been sitting their for hours waiting, is something else broken?

B.T.W. Thanks for fixing the other problem with the U/L's.

---

Hi.

Is there a problem again, l looked at the server page and there is a lot of red

their. nothing on the front page about any work to be done on the servers!

---

It looks like you are missing the BD file for some or all tasks with the new app!

ERROR: in::file::zip minirosetta_database.zip does not exist!
ERROR:: Exit from: ....srcappspublicboincminirosetta.cc line: 97
BOINC:: Error reading and gzipping output datafile: default.out

What happened to not releasing new things just before a weekend?

---

According to the front page the last time they brought a new application was Aug6 & there's no mention of a new application over on RALPH either

---

Have a crunching good day!!

Aug 21, 2009
The project is offline for the moment as we deal with an error in the recent application upate. Hopefully we will have the project back online within the next hour or so. Sorry for any inconvenience.

A shiny new app for all 1.97, plus a few files!

sorry, couldn't help myself ;)
