I am running my work down to reboot after kernel upgrade so haven't requested any new work meaning I haven't had a chance to see if issue is unversal. ID: 104667 · Reply Quote

It may be time dependant. My other Linux box got some around 08:30 UTC this morning, and one of those is running now. I'll try and see if the failing one can get more work before the current task finishes. They both need a reboot, too, but it's hard to get all the tasks synchronised to finish together when both types are being send out, ID: 104669 · Reply Quote

They both need a reboot, too, but it's hard to get all the tasks synchronised to finish together when both types are being send out, I get that and even more fun when a batch gets split up by running some testing branch work. Things were quite in sync here till the last batch from testing. ID: 104671 · Reply Quote

The retry got allocated three tasks: two downloaded OK, but the third failed. I've posted a request for a sanity check on the project message board - looks like wingmates have been having problems too. ID: 104673 · Reply Quote

As the data from all tasks currently running go to universities carrying out the research around the globe, uploads from these tasks are going through.
