Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

As our resident OPNG-watcher is on a time-out :-) ...

It would appear that we've exhausted the current stock of OPNG tasks (after nearly two months of [more or less] continuous supply) -- I've only been getting retries and verification tasks recently (and nothing since early yesterday morning!) and the number of returned results on the OPNG "Statistics by project" is well down.

I wonder how long it'll be before the OPNG scientists spin off some more work?

Cheers - Al.

P.S. As Grumpy Swede would remark if he were here at present, the forums are like molasses at the moment...

That would be molasses in January with a liberal sprinkling of "503 system not available " results.

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

Still have the same WUs stuck in "Waiting to be sent" status. Wish the WCG techs used the forums.

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

Yup; recent new WUs have numbers up in the high 5233xxxxx range and the low 5234xxxxx range and retries for high 519XXXXXX WUs are now getting trapped...

A couple of my Pending Validation tasks that had been held up actually validated, but in both cases that turned out to be because the No Reply result that spawned the stuck retry had eventually returned nearly 60 hours after the deadline :-)

I have seen some recent successful retries amongst wingmen but they are all for WUs where one of the initial tasks failed (or was user aborted or detached) fairly early -- I have only received one retry since this issue appeared (and that showed up just under 3 days from the initial tasks being issued...)

Wish the WCG techs used the forums.
It's sometimes difficult to know the best place for us to post potential issues such as this if we want to catch someone's eye.

Some topics (such as there being lots of 503 errors and long waits or timeouts on the non-BOINC parts of the system) have News items we can post into; even if they are quite old, TigerLily seems to spot them eventually :-) The same is [mostly] true for new posts in the Website Support forum.

However, this particular issue isn't really Website related and it appears that posts in the MCM1 forum don't seem to have been picked up; perhaps the latest manifestation of this Chat Room thread should be on the "must read" list :-)

(And if the non-BOINC servers are playing up [as is presently the case] trying to use "Contact us" is impossible...)

Cheers - Al.

P.S. whilst building this message and using preview I got a dozen or so 503 errors and each page refresh that worked took about 30 seconds; I think that something in the database interface might have got messed up again -- it only ever seems to manage a few days without some sort of congestion evidence showing up :-(

[Edit: the last preview was quick but it took three attempts to get it to post!]

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

The response times of the website seem to have improved a bit, but the "503' errors are still a bit commonplace.

Cheers

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

The issue with "Waiting to be sent" tasks still isn't solved. My Results list should have been empty by now, since I do not crunch anything. I still have 8 tasks in the list, all of them due to the "Waiting to be sent".problem.

But at least, it's summer temperatures, and no ice or snow smile

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

My oldest waiting to be sent is from "2024-05-17 16:19:35 UTC". My question is do the waiting to be sents NEVER get sent, or is it really really slow??
