[vbironchef]

I have been having this problem off and on. Can't send results. Is anybody else having these issues, please chime in.

I am restarting my computer and start SMP client again. This has happened many times before.

This is what I got after I restarted computer and started SMP client again.

Maybe last results were sent, but I'm not sure. Fold on

[vbironchef]

It might NOT be sent ... you might LOST that WU.

Once you see this:

Code: Select all

then you got your WU sent successfully.

[dicecca112]

its not lost, it was queued as seen in the first log snippet

[vbironchef]

This has been going on for awhile now. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I just keep folding no matter what.

[sbinh]

The WU might get corrupted before it is sent out (cuz cannot connect to server) ... and because you might close the client(s) improperly ==> no credit for work done.

People at SF suggested that if we need to reboot system, we need to wait upto 15 minutes after issue the command Ctrl+C (to stop client.)
