Hello,

I thought to ask it in another question. Perhaps that lead to some possibilities to resolve my problem. I can't be the only one.
Several project won't upload because a HTTP error.

Einstein@home is running flawlessly, as usual, on all my crunching rig. So BOINC and communication seems to work.

Add to your cc_config.xml file the following line(s):

<cc_config>
<log_flags>
<http_debug>1</http_debug>
<http_xfer_debug>1</http_xfer_debug>
</log_flags>
</cc_config>


This will give a LOT more information about which HTTP error you're encountering. Then you can check in a list, like this one what it means. In 99% of these cases you can't do anything about it. Then it's either your ISP or the project that's dropping connections or actively blocking.

If you want you can post the log excerpt with the extra HTTP debug info on the forums. Please don't edit anything out, including the IP numbers. Those IP numbers aren't of your system, but of the servers you're trying to contact.

I will do, no strange things to see.

This is strange to me:

a file has Size 16.00/42.10KB (38% progress) and the upload speed is 43.84KBps and is already 1:22:04 hours uploading.
That don't make sence to me. it should be there within the second though?

Not when the project in question is congested. I suppose you're talking about Seti? They're a bit clogged up due to their 2 day server outage earlier this week. usually by Friday everything's tapering off, but not now.

So it's just that it can't upload as a couple of thousand of other computers are also trying to do so. Like trying to thread a sausage through a needle. Patience, it'll get there.

Not this is LHC, with hardly any work, so servers can't be in stress.
Other project is Rosetta that won't upload for days, so that deadlines are not met. Patience is nice to have, but files that are days in the queue, even when deadline is over, will not work.
Moreover I want this PC out before the weekend.
