Transfers shows download size over 100% and never completes

Hi,

I'm trying to download tasks to run.
On the Transfers tab I see 100% on the progress but on the size it exceeds the size needed to download - for example 980/640 KB - it continues forever to grow. I already tried to reset the project or to reinstall the Agent.

Please advise

Thanks in advance,
Gil

Hello gberesta,
We could use a lot more data. Could you paste your Messages tab here? What file is in Transfers tab?

Re: Transfers shows download size over 100% and never completes

Oh and the messages tab as well:

Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down.
Project communication failed: attempting to access to reference site
Temporarily failed download of wcg_hcmd2_maxdo_6.14_windows_intelx86: HTTP error
Backing off 19 min 10 sec on download of wcg_hcmd2_maxdo_6.14_windows_intelx86

It output this message to all the files mentioned in my last post, when it retiries it's the same message all over again.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance,
Gil

Gil,
Where do you stand? Is it OK now?
If not please restart your BOINC client and copy/paste the first 30-40 lines of its message log to give us a chance to see what is wrong.

Re: Transfers shows download size over 100% and never completes

Hi,

It seems that some have this persistent HTTP error and wish I could reproduce, but can't. Are you on dial-up or ADSL, fixed line? If you open up the client_state.xml file in the data_dir, what bwdown speed is printed there?

Same as in the other thread today, any proxy or firewall (what brands if any)

Maybe try a project reset in the client, given that no actual results will get lost.

edit: Oh, and please check the rights for the data_dir (printed at top of your message log)

Hi,

I'm behind ADSL and a router LinkSys WRT54GL (Firmware Version : v4.30.7). I tried project reset as well as reinstall without luck. I do have full rights to data_dir and my firewall is disabled.

Re: Transfers shows download size over 100% and never completes

If you navigate to the /project/www.worldcommunitygrid folder have all smaller fixed task files successfully downloaded? A thread somewhere discussed that BOINC was not allowed to write exe and dll files. Is there nothing that stops specific writing of these?

As for rights, it's not so much you, but the restricted boinc accounts needing to have the rights such as boinc_master. When I install I always select "Advanced" all users.

feeling like the guy with a red/white walking stick... maybe try to attach the client to for instance rosetta@home and see if you succeed to get work from them. That would narrow it down to WCG specific.

PS: That downloads show larger than 100% is because BOINC does not reset the counter when the actual downloads are resuming from the start.
