Message 4542 - Posted: 23 Sep 2004, 16:37:50 UTC
Last modified: 23 Sep 2004, 16:38:59 UTC

Have just joined this project and have downloaded the program to six computers with no problem . Five computers are working fine but one computer, with no work done yet, presented the message a number of times..deferring communication for about one day and a few hours,next line read 23 hours, etc. What does this mean? Do I have to keep the computers on line most of the time in order to constantly get new work assignments?
All computers run Windows X Home, CPU (1)1.8 and (5)2.4Ghz with 256 memory.

no, once you get a workunit you can run offline for weeks (until the workunit is finished). the trickles (for credit) get sent about once or twice a day depending on computer speed, but it's not mandatory to be online.

>OK, but that one computer is doing nothing right now and has been that way for about 12 hours and more.One of the lines on the message had stated some thing to the effect unable to find file or verify something. Do I have to wait now about 11 hours before that computer contacts home base again for additional information?

Looking at your computers <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/hosts_user.php?userid=19203">here</a> you've got 6 that have trickled within the past 13 hours and one that hasn't trickled at all. What's really strange is that #42303 has uploaded 12 trickles but has no credits and #42096 has been credited for 12 trickles but it's the one with no trickles.

&gt; ONE OTHER COMPUTER,WORKING ON A TASK SHOWING A MESSAGE THATS STATES, DEFERRING
&gt; COMMUNICATION FOR 17 MINUTES, ERROR-113.

Error -113 is a host name resolution problem. There should be further details in the message to help identify the failure condition that applies in your case.
