Folding Forum

Hello. This is my first post. I joined because I am having a problem with a WU. I fold for TeamCFC as ggganz (that's my name on CFC, trying to get it changed to The Scyphozoa). I am using the Windows text-only client (5.0something, I mean NOT the beta one) running as a service. I have been unable to transmit the results of one WU, and I just ignored it, thinking that it would eventually be able to be transmitted. (Very strange thing is that F@H knows I've finished it, but I can't send the results Just check the EOC stats.) But while I've been waiting for that WU to transmit, I've finished ANOTHER WU, which HAS been transmitted!!!! Do you have ANY explanation for this?? If you need any information from me I'll be happy to give it to you. Please help!!

Hello Scyphozoa, welcome to the forum.

Helpful info would be found in the first 30 lines of the fahlog.txt file. Please copy and paste that content here, along with a small example showing the failure to upload. Thanks.

Here's what it has logged so far since I started it today.

And after that it just starts writing whenever it finished 1% of the current WU. I have set my firewall to allow everything for that program. What do you think I should do?

You will want to change this setting to NO.

[23:46:01] - Use IE connection settings: Yes

Stop the fah service. Run the fah executable with the -configonly switch. Answer NO to USE IE SETTINGS. Restart service.
