The Free Hal project has been offline since Mid April and no one has heard anything about its status that I'm aware of - whether it will be returning anytime soon or anything about it.

The project website has even had its certification expire and you get warnings when you try to go to it and there is no information available about the project other than that it had a major failure.

I have a job sitting on my queue that completed after the failure occurred that was never picked up by the system and reported to Free Hal. Since it looks like this project is probably dead in the water unless you know something different, is there someway to get this job off of my queue, or do I have to sit with it on my queue for eternity??? I imagine there may be others out there with this same issue wondering about this like I am.

Thanks.

Just select the project in the projects tab and click "Reset project".

If that doesn't work, click on "Detach".

Cheers,

Al.

Thankyou, detaching was what I had to do to get the task off of my queue. My computer had been trying to communicate with the project on and off since april and I am glad that this is resolved.
