I got 4 OPN1 tasks yesterday, downloaded immediately without any transient HTTP errors. In around 30 minutes, it's time to see if I have any luck today.
----------------------------------------I don't have to babysit and try manually, since I use an "auto-request" every 5 minutes batch file. Edit, added: Today, 2 MCM1. Since I didn't have any MCM related files since before, the downloads was pretty large. A couple of transient HTTP errors, and a pathetic download speed too. They still seems to have big network problems (bandwidth?), and there's not a chance that they can get the project up to 100% before those problems are fixed. But, I've said it before, why on earth release one small batch, at the same time every day, instead of spreading it out over 24 hours? If they did like that instead, they could up the number of WU's sent out per day, considerably. [Edit 4 times, last edit by Grumpy Swede at Aug 18, 2022 12:52:12 PM] |

It seems like everybody and their dog is so task-hungry now and the server-queue dries out so rapidly like a hot summer season, that my computer can't even fill all its BOINC-slots anymore.

Today I got 15 ARP1(only generation 128) tasks, 3 of them resends, (2 No reply, and 1 with an error ).
----------------------------------------5 MCM's has not seen them for a while! No OPN1(stiil no OPNG or HST) No problems downloading but those ARP's use some time(lot of files!) Happy crunching every one😊 Hans S. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Hans Sveen at Aug 18, 2022 1:01:47 PM] |

My computer is trying to download quite a number of OpenPandemics tasks, but gets transient HTTP errors all the time.
What's going wrong? |

The transient HTTP issue is a known issue. They stated last week that they were going to get the network people to look at it. It is unknown if the network people have even looked at it yet, or if they have looked at it and haven't solved it yet. Too many unknowns about this issue, I'd be interested to know if they have narrowed it down any. Hardware or Software issue? local or further upstream issue?

Thx, Unixchick for your quick reply.
So I am afraid I can't do anything about it from my side :-( |

So...maybe I haven't hit the work unit lottery. I haven't received any work units since 7/26.
Is this normal? I know they are still working on things, but I would have figured my one computer would have happened to have gotten at least one in what 3+ weeks. |

So...maybe I haven't hit the work unit lottery. I haven't received any work units since 7/26. They only send out VERY few WUs out each day, between my roughly 2 dozen hosts, I usually get maybe 2-3 WUs on one, maybe two of those hosts ONCE A WEEK.Is this normal? I know they are still working on things, but I would have figured my one computer would have happened to have gotten at least one in what 3+ weeks. So this whole project is FAR from being able to supply WUs to every one. They are not very open about what exactly is being tested and in which order. Ralf |

Oh great. So even when my 3 main hosts share 148 cpus - they have as much chance as 3 single core Atom computers to get a single task? No wonder nothing has been happening.
It certainly fits the pattern of this migration until now... |
