Hi, i was about 0.5% into a newly-downloaded WU when my server crashed and took my SSD with it. I've had to do a complete reinstall of Linux so basically i lost all trace of the WU.
I've now setup FAH from scratch using a saved config file and it's waiting for a WU. How long will it be before FAH realises nothing's happened with the lost WU and hopefully send me another?
My server crashed. Lost WU. what to do?

Re: My server crashed. Lost WU. what to do?
The WU you had will have a Time Out attached to it - when no response received by then it will be reissued .. Don't stress over the loss of the WU as these things happen.
Your new install should pick up a WU as soon as it can get a slot on the assignment servers (fairly loaded at the moment) - the fact that there is a WU in limbo shouldn't impact that (iirc).

Anyway, you should make sure that such crash doesn't happen again ...

Reminds me of the car salesman who suggested to my brother that he might not want to "write this one off" after he totalled his car and had to buy a new one
