Cosmology@home seems to be offline and the Home Page link now leads to an unrelated website. It appears their website may have been hijacked. As I have work still to report I would assume they're still active.
23) Message boards : Projects : Test4Theory - New Server, New Name, New URL (Message 54950)

On Monday July 14, the Test4theory project will be migrated to a new server, and also get a new name: "vLHC@home".

Following 3 years of running Theory simulations under CernVM and BOINC, we plan to gradually expand the project and add more applications on CernVM with simulations from the LHC experiments. Thus the new name: "Virtual LHC@home".

The old server URL will be redirected, and we expect that the transition should be transparent to BOINC clients. The forums and BOINC user database with accumulated credit will remain the same as today. There is a slight risk that running tasks may fail and that the credit for these will be lost. We would in that case recommend to detach and re-attach to the project. Further advice will be given here in the News forum once the upgrade is completed.

Article link: http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/vLHCathome/forum_thread.php?id=1500&postid=16854#16854 Or the main page: http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/vLHCathome/index.php

The changeover is transparent in BOINC, however if any problem try detaching and reattaching manually and make sure it is to the new URL http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/vLHCathome/ as the BOINC client still shows the old one in the project list.

Good, at least he reacted hopefully to the many tweets sent to him on the subject.

Their funds have probably dried up. I doubt we'll see this any time soon.

SIMAP is back up again. Reason for outage was:

We are moving our entire server infrastructure to another building. This project will therefore be offline from Monday, 28th of April, 6.30 UTC until the move has finished. We plan to be online again on Tuesday, 29th of April, 1pm UTC.

There's a very good chance of that I'm sure. I am not holding my breath. ;-)

I tried emailing the founder and he didn't bother replying so you can only go with what the website says.

My Stat Counter site says that they haven't exported their XML stats in a while so it's some problem at Seti's end.

Warning: the physics@home website appears to have been hijacked by what appears to be dangerous websites.

It's been down for ages anyway so am assuming the project has died despite what the owner had said a while back.

Both websites are back in operation.

physics@home remains offline.

We're all in the same boat. I've just suspended the project for now so BOINC wont keep polling for new work from that at least. I'm going to hang on to my completed work for now. It shouldn't be long now I hope.

Any news on when Malariacontrol will be back online? All these WU trying to upload or waiting to report are a pain, especially as they are now overdue. Since projects that have big crashes often have to restore from a backup and lose the record of outstanding WU, I'm wondering whether to reset the project to try to get rid of them but I'm not exactly sure what a project reset from BOINC manager would do if the project is unreachable.

malariacontrol.net went offline at around 0900 UTC on Friday 24 January and will be down for at least this weekend. All pages are currently generating the following message:

Site is temporary unavailable.

Sorry, we had a major failure! We're dealing with it and should be back next week, but the server will be down at least over this weekend.

We apologize for any inconvenience.
