Hi,

guess this doesn't belong here, bbut couldn't find a better place for it..

In the last hours BOINC client couldn't connect to P@H site with the following error message:

05/10/2006 19.05.15|Predictor @ Home|Fetching scheduler list
05/10/2006 19.05.38||Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site
05/10/2006 19.05.40||Access to reference site succeeded - project servers may be temporarily down.
05/10/2006 19.05.41|Predictor @ Home|Scheduler list fetch failed: http error
05/10/2006 19.05.41|Predictor @ Home|5 consecutive failures fetching scheduler list - deferring 604800 seconds
05/10/2006 19.05.41|Predictor @ Home|Deferring scheduler requests for 1 weeks, 0 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes and 0 seconds


Neither could I connect to P@H web site through Firefox. Is it the same for everyone else, or do I have a routing problem to P@H? It already happened to me in teh past, but then i couldn't connect to any web site at SCRIPPS, which I can now do (e.g. connecting to www.scripps.edu yields no problem).

Thnx

Seems to be down at the moment. (see this or this)

Plus they seem to be out of work and this may be for some time.

Yes, the project is down while they undergo a major overhaul.

However they aren't the most talkative project team around so don't be expecting to find very many updates on the status. ;-)
