sesq Send message Joined: 21 Aug 15 Posts: 7 Credit: 12,567,685 RAC: 0	Message 2370 - Posted: 24 Sep 2017, 7:14:38 UTC Same here, only one host, and for two days. It's a fileserver/backup box so it doesn't get regular local use and no significant hardware or software changes have occurred in weeks. Checked through BOINC/local firewall/router settings, wired that particular box directly to the router with different cable, un/reinstalled adapter drivers, and installed older version of BOINC. All other network and internet activities are as perfect as they've always been. As a last resort it occurrect to me to attach another project to that box just to see what would happen and it has no trouble up/down so I'm guessing there's something wrong with the U@H server. I actually got on here to detail this nonsense and see if there was any way to manually upload the results which have been piling up before I dumped this project from everything on my network, but since someone else is having the same problem it might get some attention and I guess I'll wait another day or two. My patience with the constant problems associated with this project is wearing thin. ID: 2370 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Last modified: 24 Sep 2017, 15:06:12 UTC I tried a few of the things you listed with no luck either. I was skeptical that it was a U@H issue since I didn't see anyone post a thread about it, but now that you've chimed in I'm confident that the issue is on the project's side. I still have 9 days until the completed tasks start hitting the deadline. I also sent a private message to Krzysztof Piszczek (project admin). ID: 2371 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Initially it was just one URL that was failing, and of course no-one else was reporting difficulties because they all used different servers. I only realised what was the problem when the number of non-contactable URLs slowly increased. Switching to a different DNS server solved the problem for me.

Of the three I currently have on this project, two are fine and one can only connect to projects other than U@H. It's not a DNS server problem on this end - it acts more like the project is blacklisting random computers. ID: 2380 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

After finish WU Boinc Manager send few of packages to the server. But one package can`t - ends _0 (sometimes _4). In log: "Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down." You can`t send this package and end your task. I have 8 not sending WU yet (no problem with downloading another WU and with different projects). ID: 2383 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
