I've been scratching my head a little as to why my daily points average has dropped from the 1,200s to the 800's.

It seems that most of my machines aren't passing back the completed WUs

and are constantly trying to sent them.. I have one dated 15th November!!! :eek:

Here is the log:

You didn't happen to install IE7, did you? I hear this borks the FAH client rather badly if it's set to use IE settings.

I have.. about that time.. Something I've missed?

If they were set to use IE settings stop it, remove that setting, restart the client, and see if it works.

Sorry Billy, what do I use istead of IE settings?

Thanks

Admiral Huddy · 9 Jan 2007 at 09:20

Ok I'll give it a go.. Just say no to use IE settings - cotcha

Will report back

Admiral Huddy · 9 Jan 2007 at 09:39

Ok I specifed No IE seetings and No Proxy.. Bit confussed as to how the client would get it's settings.

However, it seems to be sending results back.

One of the WU has had 63 attempts at server 171.65.103.158???

Still getting failed attempts at 171.65.103.100??

Admiral Huddy · 9 Jan 2007 at 09:42

BillytheImpaler said:
On your systems what sort of settings would it need to pick up from IE? Do you have some special configuration?

Hmm I guess so..

We'll it's uploaded 17 wus already from one core :eek:

- i'll keep an eye on things for a bit.

Thank Mate

You'll probably find that some of the servers which were used a couple of months ago may have been taken offline if they've finished the run of projects they were hosting at the time.

Server 100 is the collection server which helps out when the work servers are busy - unfortunately if the particular work server is actually down for some reason then the collection server won't be able to accept the WU
It will however let you upload the entire WU before telling you this so if it's a large file you may want to find out about deleting that particular result - I would leave it for now incase the server is just tempoarily down but if it becomes a problem give us a shout

I have 6 files on one machine that have over 80 attempts to upload.. most of them are the 158 server which is down

I'm still confusssed as the logs said yesterday that at least 12 WU had been uploaded but the completed WUs only show 4 or 5 since.

Admiral Huddy · 10 Jan 2007 at 16:19

That sucks - it's like doing the work and not getting paid

Admiral Huddy · 11 Jan 2007 at 14:39

still no joy.. Average is dropiing all the time.. 12 processors dumping less than 800 between them a day. What is going on???

I'm thinking of clearing my main machine and starting from fresh..

Admiral Huddy · 15 Jan 2007 at 10:33

Still no joy.. and its getting worse. Down to 760?

Not sure what to do?
