Work Unit Stuck

[8 I3ALL]

Fahmon is reporting an upload error


Couldn't send HTTP request to server (wininet)
[10:35:38] + Could not connect to Work Server (results)
[10:35:38] (171.65.103.100:8080)
[10:35:38] Could not transmit unit 04 to Collection server; keeping in queue.

its been like this for a few days. Ive checked and that server is online and taking results

restart the client/machine?

reset your internet connection?

change your configuration so that the "use IE connection settings" is the opposite to what it is currently? - I wouldn't bother with this if it's worked fine previously and you've not changed anything on your system over the last few days


server 100 is the collection server which although it's up and accepting it's usually quite busy (high netload) and also if it can't contact the work server your WU came from it won't let you upload to it anyway

can you see what server the work unit belongs to or what project number it is so we can look up the server

Reboot works for me, at least in order to get a new unit. Sometimes the WU won't send but it will eventually.

im able to upload and download new units it just seems like it doesnt like this unit

"can you see what server the work unit belongs to or what project number it is so we can look up the server"

how can i find that info ? would it be logfile_4 ?

it should list the IP address when it tries to send it (before the server 100 entry)


it's also possible that thew unit sent alright but you didn't receive the confirmation - best thing to do is just leave it and it'll either send eventually or if it really has been received already then it'll time-out eventually and what's left will be deleted


if you want to see what server the WU came from you can stop the client, make a shortcut to it, change the target of the shortcut to include the -queueinfo flag outside the quote marks, eg.

"C:\Program Files\Folding@Home\Core1\FAH502-Console.exe" -queueinfo

Then run the shortcut, a dos window will pop up and then dissapear - look in FAHlog.txt for the output
