I should add this is on BOINC 5.4.11.
----------------------------------------There is a proxy, but only this one machine is affected. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Nov 8, 2007 3:48:47 PM] |

Hi. Are the techs looking into this problem? Do they need any additional information?
----------------------------------------Although the problem is related in some way to my location as both laptops upload successfully from work but not from home I cannot believe that all 3 people who have reported this are with the same ISP. I am with PlusNet in the UK. One of my faster systems is sitting idle at the moment because it will not download new work units while there are 24 failing to upload.

Yes the techs have been prodded once more and are looking into this and the proxy issue.... not limited to WCG. Cant fix one and breaking the other as code fixed here in BOINC needs to work at all other projects as well (there are many).

5.8.16 seems to have been the version with least issues v.v. proxy and also facilitating upload compression (no promises). Get it here: http://boincdl.ssl.berkeley.edu/dl/boinc_5.8.16_windows_intelx86.exe

Removed BOINC and installed the 5.8.16 version ... work units that were erroring on upload have not changed status to "ready to report" and no longer show up on the transfer tab.

The "Removing" word gives me the chills. How did you do that and did you keep a backup before the downgrade?

Can you go back to the 5.10.X version that you prefer and then do the following: Download either: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/libcurlx86.zip or http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/libcurlx64.zip depending on whether you are using the 32 or 64 bit client. Unzip those and drop the contained files into your BOINC installation directory (normally C:\Program Files\BOINC). Restart BOINC and then have the upload retry. Those zip files contain the libCurl 7.17.1 build that will be used in a new test version of the BOINC client. In particular there is a a fix that says "CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS could fail to send binary data". That is the mechanism used to upload result files. Let us know what happens. thanks, Kevin |
