My BOINC client is trying to send a trickle-up message, and keeps getting HTTP errors. Second, the server status page returns a blank page as of this writing. (It has the correct HTML formatting when I viewed its source, but nothing else.) Has the scheduler process failed?

The project people are working on the front end server problem, so anything could happen from time to time.
Expect turbulence. :)

That would explain the HTTP errors I'm getting trying to report and Afr model.

Server Status page is back up, front page still down though.

The server status page is up and shows the scheduler as running, but I still get HTTP errors when BOINC tries to make a scheduler request. Is it overloaded, or is something else keeping scheduler requests from succeeding?

The answer depends on the exact string of words in the error message.
If that is for a zip file, then the server to which the zip is going may have a problem. e.g. the ANZ zips go to a server in Hobart Tasmania.

Here is the event log in regards to my attempting to report the trickle up message and the completed work unit.

Confirming - I've been getting

every time I've tried to fetch new work, over the last six hours (trying to confirm the ANZ file size issue we discussed a few days ago).

Same for me. I am setting up the account again, and I can now attach to the project, but that is as far as it goes.

I'm getting the same HTTP internal server error. Looks like something didn't quite recover from the previous outage.

Email sent.

Thanks!

Hi Chaps, sorry for this, it is my fault.
I have upgraded the database libraries, but forgot to tell the webserver.

I am fixing it now.

Mine now clear.

Same here. Thanks Jonathon.

My finished work unit result now has been reported. However, trickles that are newer than the scheduler outage are not showing up in the work unit result logs, as written about in this thread.

...fixed this too.

Apologies

Hi

Mine cannot download one WU for several days, it reported all OK and says it has one WU but can't download it, and when I update the project it won't ask for new work when I should have 2 WU on my dualcore (none left at the moment, only the one trying to download)

Was it the same problem ?

Thanks

Climate Prediction workunits require the download of many, many files. If just one single file fails to download, it's usually a local problem on your computer.

Especially if that single file is an executable program, as it is in this case. You can download the file yourself from this link:

http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/download/mirror.php?file=/hadam3p_afr_7.22_windows_intelx86.exe

but when I tried it just now, it triggered a false virus detection from my 'Avast' anti-virus program.



If you temporarily disable antivirus scanning, you should be able to complete the download - but do remember to restore the AV service afterwards.

Wow ! I just disabled both file and web agent and tried to restart download and network from boinc manager and that was it ! Thanks for the quick help !

The strangest thing is that I had long ago defined an exception for file check on the whole boinc directory in avast, in the file agent setup, but now I think I should also exclude the CPDN URL in the web agent...

I'll try this later, thanks again (after finishing the download I was able to update and got 2 new WUs, yes sir !)
