anthony Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 I usually get that for like 2hrs before I get another wu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravy Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 normally mine sends results and gets another wu in the same minute or so Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 That particular server is under an extremely heavy load right now, which is why you are getting that error message. You can try to restart the conole a couple of times to see if you can get assigned to a different server. You can check the Stanford server status here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigred Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 it's been like that for 18+ hours now. I'm sitting on 5 wu's that should have gone in yesterday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravy Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 glad it's not just me so, is there any way to make it connect to a different server to get a new wu? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 glad it's not just me so, is there any way to make it connect to a different server to get a new wu? Stop the console and restart it until it get assigned to another server. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 Thats a very familar screen with Norton Security 2003, it does not do it all the time but I have seen it try like 15 attempts before, I disable Norton and it picks a work unit right up. A few weeks back one of Stanfords Servers were down and had like 10 WU trying to send to it, they finally went when they got the server fixed.

gravy Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 i keep getting the same server every time i restart, and i dont have norton internet security, just nav 2005, but i tried disabling it just for kicks, no good so nobody knows how to change servers?

Nemo Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 No- not besides what I suggested. Sorry. And road-runner, there are known issues with Folding and Norton Internet Security- I used to run NIS 2003, but I had to turn the firewall off because of problems it caused when downloading work units. Something about it corrupting the last few bytes of the WU file which caused the decompress operation to fail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeseMan42 Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 i sure hope it isn't down for long. i got one wu done in the next hour and another one done by 4pm. i hope i can get new ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
