BOINC has been trying to return results on my system for over three days now. On the transfer page is shows that all five zip files have been 100% sent but also shows that they are waiting to retry the uploading process. In response to a email I sent to you, Carl Christensen suggested that I need to have port 80 open for the transfer.

What do I need port 80 (or other ports) open for? IP, UDP, or TCP?

Thank you for your help.

PS I have no problems with returning results to other projects that I run.

Port 80 should be open for TCP protocol, however if you are returning results to other projects, this is probably not your problem.

There is another thread here discussing current upload problems, reason being a server that is down for maintenance.

I'd suggest that you follow that thread, and once other people report that they can again successfully upload, you should retry your own upload.

the Switzerland server (phkup21.unibe.ch) is still down, so that is probably what the problem is. Hopefully it will be back up soon (it's out of our control).

I, too, have a 100% WU and 5 zip files that won't upload. This WU completed on Wednesday and today (Monday) it's still not up-loaded. However, on Saturday I had another WU complete on another machine and it uploaded as did its zip files...or, at least I guess they uploaded because they are nowhere to be found on the "Transfers" tab of BOINC. Is the Switzerland serve accepting up-loads of some WUs and not others or is the issue somehow different?

Thanks in advance.
