The world community grid site was down for a significant time. I completed several results but still cannot upload them. This is a major issue since these results will expire in 2 hours from now.

Hi,
----------------------------------------Sorry about this. There a message from knreed about this outage. Don't worry, all were hit and long as you report it ASAP, it will be validated and credited. In past the tech suspended the work reissue for 'no reply' / 'too late' jobs in these situations. Generally BOINC tries to complete work 24 hours before due date, so I presume this was rush/repair work that with a short deadline. If these were normal jobs, I suggest to reduce your buffer size / connect interval. The shortest deadline project has 10 days. If a part time cruncher, you can switch to the longer deadline jobs to avoid these conditions. There is a selection of 10, 14 and 20 days. ttyl PS: Would you please delete your duplicate post in the Suggestion and Feedback forum. thanks

This FAQ in the Start Here forum outlines current number of days for regular projects and rush work.
----------------------------------------The recommended method for those with a drive to crunch 24/7 is to find a second project outside to WCG and set that to a very small resource share. If it's impossible to get work from WCG the client will automatically start fetching work from the alternate selected, until service at WCG resumes.

Reading Kevins message indicates everything is back up, but the Boinc grid side is still down my end - I still can't upload/receive work.
----------------------------------------We just experienced a 6 hour outage on the website and BOINC grid. It appears that we are up again but we are still investigating what happened. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at May 9, 2008 4:28:06 PM] |

email from boss said that several servers were down.
----------------------------------------I experience hi intermittency so let it sit on auto-retry please so that the system does not collapse under an avalanche of manual retries.

Don't worry I always do - was just hoping to let them know all is still not well even though Kevins message indicates otherwise.

Absolutely correct Sek. PLEASE do not manually update!! It will only prolong the problem. Let the load balancers sort it out.
