Folding Forum

I really don't give a darn if it get's me in anyone's good graces. I just want to see RESULTS instead of broken promises for once.

This issue has been happening for years and every time we hear the same old crap that there will be a change in the way the servers work so this doesn't happen in the future. Funny how after several years it still hasn't been implemented and we still go through this crap time and time again. If the ...

You can shut down the client, wait a couple of minutes, then restart it to download a new WU to continue folding, but there is no guarantee that the new WU will upload when it's done. That's the problem I'm running into. I can manipulate things to get new WU's, but they don't upload when done and th...

Any update about when someone is going to get off of their lazy butt and fix this? I have finished WU's backup up that won't upload. I don't want to waste my time folding WU's that won't be uploaded.

Once again your Stanford is always right attitude betrays you. But I really don't care anymore.

I have read the details and I do understand that they would have no control over anything on MY end. But even if it is voluntary, they still have a MORAL obligation to do everything in their power to have their servers running and accessible 24/7. I can accept that there are some things out of their...

I had to shut down the client on one of my rigs and restart it for it to send the WU in after the server came back online. The other one was able to do so without intervention though. It's probably too late now though as the deadlines have more than likely passed making it pointless.

Finally. Someone with some common sense who understands the REAL ramifications of PG's lack of foresight and implementation of resources.

I don't care what they say. It's still unacceptable.

And as for the redundancies, if they are in place why they heck aren't the WU's uploading to them? It's obvious that they either don't actually have any redundancies, or they are so misconfigured as to be non-functional. So now, when are they going to fix this this so we can upload our finished Work...

No, it tries 130.237.232.140:8080 first then goes to 130.237.165.141:8080. At no time does it try to go to 130.237.165.140. 130.267.165.140 isn't even on your server status list at http://fah-web.stanford.edu/serverstat.html

I am sure they will have a fix in place as soon as possible. From Dr. Kasson's message it appears that the issue is not with the server instance or waiting for new WU's to generate, but possibly the underlying hardware (RAID volume failure, NIC failure possibly... who knows). I can understand that ...

Well, it's been 12 hours since it was first reported. Any updates as to when this is going to be fixed?

When you say little while, do you mean hours or days? Since it's already been over 7 hours since it was reported hours doesn't seem very likely. What happens to the WU's we have waiting to upload if it isn't fixed by the preferred deadline?

I restarted one of the clients and now I can see the 130.237.232.140 IP address.
