Hi, all,

My BOINC installation on the brand-new computer just finished its first CP.net work unit (awwww, isn\'t it cute!)

481+ hours of CPU time. Not too shabby.

But it ain\'t uploading the results. For the past three days I have heen getting the messages

\"temporarily failed upload of [big-long-filename].zip\"

\"backing off [some number of hours]\"

Then, right on cue, a few hors later, it fails to upload again. The \"transfers\" tab of the BOINC client shows all five files in the work unit as 100% uploaded (the little yellow status bar is at 100%, anyway), but the status column indicates that the upload will be retried.

A new CP.net work unit was successfully downloaded and is running, and the seti@home and LHC@home clients have both uploaded and downloaded several work units recently, so I doubt it\'s a connection problem on my end.

Is there a problem with the CP servers? Is there a setting that needs to be changed? Do I need to sacrifice a goat?

Thanks in advance!

BOINC is designed to cope with this sort of problem, and it doesn't interfere with processing of the next WU.

Ah! I see.

Thank you.
