Communication Deferred

[Mikey1280]

If I try to update and download new WU for SETI using Boinc I get the message
'Connection Deferred' and a 10min countdown time follows and I get no new work. These are the last few lines from the messages tab.

What can I do? What am I doing wrong?
You guys talk about optimised seti apps? What are these and do they run under BOINC?

they've had some server issues and are trying to clean up the database. in the meantime they are a bit short on work to give out. It'll be sorted soon I'm sure

(remeber that soon in californian means in the next 6 months)

why not attach to climate prediction or run some folding@home in the mean time?

EDIT, that's not why you are getting the error btw, your error is completely unrelated. your error means that you tried too recently, just leave it and it should sort itself out
