I currently have 3 Tasks attempting to Upload, and one Ready to Report.
Those attempting to Upload are Active for a while but then change to Retry in nn:nn or somethimes Retry in nn:nn:nn
After that time (or unless I manually click 'Retry Now', they change to Active, and are once again Active for anything from a few seconds to a few minutes, and then revert to Retry in nn:nn or Retry in nn:nn:nn
If I click 'retry Now', the 3 Tasks revert to Active: but if I allow them to proceed and retry automatically, each Task Retrys one at a time when that time is up.
However, after a certain amount of Retrys, they change to Backoff in nn:nn or Backoff in nn:nn:nn

Below is a Copy of The Event log relating to Te Tasks in Question ...

WHENEVER you see these two lines together the problem is NOT on your end, it is on the projects end! EVERYONE is having the same problems right now.

As mikey said, you're not the only one with those issues, see also recent posts in "Problems and Technical Issues with Rosetta@home".

I have one WU that has been sitting there for over a month showing Uploading. There is nothing in the Transfer screen. Other WUs come and go.

Rosetta Mini 3.45. All others are now Rosetta 3.46. How can I delete it?

Thanks

Yes, sounds like BOINC Manager doesn't fully understand it completed the upload... and never will.

OK thanks. It can just sit there.

OK thanks. It can just sit there.

Will it let you abort it? Not like it's hurting anything, but I like a tidy display :)

Right, I meant yes, just abort the task. I seem to have missed the "how" in your "can I delete it" question. Open BOINC Manager's advanced view, tasks tab, select the old one you described, click abort.
