BOINC cannot report tasks on Windows Server 2008 [RESOLVED]

BOINC 6.6.38 on Windows Server 2008 x64 cannot report already completed tasks:

10/26/2009 2:18:19 AM World Community Grid update requested by user
10/26/2009 2:18:22 AM World Community Grid Sending scheduler request: Requested by user.
10/26/2009 2:18:22 AM World Community Grid Reporting 4 completed tasks, not requesting new tasks
10/26/2009 2:18:49 AM Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site
10/26/2009 2:18:50 AM Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down.
10/26/2009 2:18:52 AM World Community Grid Scheduler request failed: Failed sending data to the peer

No proxy, no special settings, everything was working fine till now. Client has been already restarted - no way. Windows XP in the same network had the same error this morning, but only once.

How to report these tasks or do it via another computer?

Re: BOINC cannot report tasks on Windows Server 2008

hi, boot for starters and post log from beginning through the result reporting fail. Could be a stuck DNS. We have several FAQ's on these errors and one that is a set of steps to get communications going again, if inexplicably failing... and 6.6.38 does fail... not a fully matured version.

Re: BOINC cannot report tasks on Windows Server 2008

Run installer with Repair option - the same. Problem is not resolved.

Re: BOINC cannot report tasks on Windows Server 2008

No, Gennady, reporting via another computer would invalidate the results.

Let me ponder a bit... also boot your router/modem plz.

I'm not seeing work being requested either. Are you getting any?

Recent changes/updates in AV/Security software... what have you got running there?

Edit: Here's a search filter for your specific error:

10/26/2009 2:18:50 AM Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down.
10/26/2009 2:18:52 AM World Community Grid Scheduler request failed: Failed sending data to the peer

Your port 80 is fine (first line) but SSL/port 443 seems closed, something WCG requires to be open.

Next time we'll set some extra log flags in the cc_config.xml to get more detail.

Re: BOINC cannot report tasks on Windows Server 2008

I've denied requesting new work, as this computer will not be in my own soon.

No changes in AV/Security software today :(
It's unlikely that 443 port became unavailable.

Re: BOINC cannot report tasks on Windows Server 2008

In that case, uninstall and reinstall with WCG 6.2.28, service, all users, to see it's moving.

6.6.38 is really not considered stable release. Too many reports of trouble on the developers forum.

No problem, but how not to lose these results?

Re: BOINC cannot report tasks on Windows Server 2008

You wont, as the data_dir content will be handed over. Just make sure that the data path on reinstall points to the same directory. The current one is:

10/26/2009 2:52:27 AM Data directory: C:\ProgramData\BOINC

Which is the Vista default.

PS, before doing the reinstall, unplug the internet and make sure you see the results etc in the BOINC Manager before plugging the internet cable back in.
