Couldn't find a recent post on this, so thought I'd make a report, as it is showing fine on the server stats page.

I've got CPU project 14188 stuck sending, (PRCG 6, 161, 3) with the log showing "PLEASE_WAIT" after uploading.

Here's the log filtered to just the problematic WU in case it's a config issue on my end:

It's been 24 hours, and I've decided to take another look at my logs.

It seems that F@H is trying to upload to the Work Server, 155.247.166.219, and hasn't even tried the collection server, 155.247.164.213. Is there a way I can force F@H to try uploading to the CS? (Though both are showing as WSes on the server stats page...?)

If there is a CS associated with that particular WU, it will be trying automatically. The choice of Assignment Server happens when the WU is initially downloaded and unfortunately is bonded to that particular WU until it is returned. If none were functional at the moment you got the WU, you won't have one. If that CS goes offline while you have that WU, you'll be limited to the original Work Server. There's an enhancement request to improve that function but no assurance when it might happen. Both FAHClient and the Server code would need to change.

I don't know about "Please Wait" but it's rare. It connects but then fails. FAHClient only tries to send to a Collection Server if the Work Server FAILS to connect.

If there is a CS associated with that particular WU, it will be trying automatically but only after the initial connection fails. Temporarily blacklisting that IP might force it to try the CS.

The choice of Assignment Server happens when the WU is initially downloaded and unfortunately is bonded to that particular WU until it is returned. If none were functional at the moment you got the WU, you won't have one. Once it is chosen, if that CS goes offline while you have that WU, you'll be limited to the original Work Server.

The title mentions 155.247.164.213 but the log shows PLEASE_WAIT is the response from 155.247.166.219

I'm going to change the title of the first post to 155.247.166.219

I also have this exact same poblem. Server 155.247.166.219. The server connects and the WU uploads to 95% before the Please wait message.

Thanks - only put that in the subject as I took that from the CS in the Status tab, assuming it would be trying there only, not knowing that a CS was only a backup if the WS was down.

I'll look up how I can blacklist an IP on my machine, thanks for the advice!

Edit: blocked all connections to the WS in Windows Firewall, it successfully sent to the CS with WORK_ACK. I'll leave it blocked for now in case it's a server issue to stop getting given WUs for it, and make sure e-mail notifications are on for the forum to hopefully get an update when it gets fixed so I can start receiving WUs from it again.
