1) Message boards : BOINC Manager : How to force report when 1 project down? (Message 7319)

OK - Rosetta has several WU's still to do but Einstein is back up for a while - all work uploaded automatically to Einstein, then reported - then all other projects (Malaria & Rosetta) reported by themselves - problem over.

During the problem I could contact Malaria & Rosetta with the browser or any other Internet site, Boinc Manager set to 'always run' & 'network always available', Einstein was finished all it's work & ready to upload and report (also 'no new work') - still none of my commands getting through to the Messages tab. It is totally ignoring me.

As soon as Einstein came back on line, everything started working again.

Still don't know what it was that stopped the reporting.

Thank you to everybody who offered suggestions to try to solve this problem.

Thank you very much for the reply.

Yes normally I don't touch Boinc - I let it do it's own thing.

For the last 8 hours or so, since all the Einstein WU's finished and are waiting to upload, no other project has been able to report finished units, even though they have uploaded finished work and new work downloaded.

I have selected the projects individually in 'Projects' as mentioned in my previous post and updated them, but the request does not show up in messages. Only numerous messages about Einstein work units backing off xx hrs/mins before uploading.

The only Malaria or Rosetta messages are uploading or downloading work or pausing and swapping projects at the end of the 60mins periods.

I am attached to about the same number of projects on my 5 computers and have several projects down etc, but I have never come across this problem before.

I don't know where to put this one - haven't seen this problem before - so here goes.

(AMD3200XP machine - Kubuntu v606 Linux - Boinc v5.4.11)

I have 15 Einstein WU's ready to upload & report - Einstein is down and so they won't upload or report.

I also have Malaria and Rosetta crunching on the same machine. They both have WU's waiting to report.

Both Malaria & Rosetta WU's will download & crunch new work and then upload finished units - but these same finished WU's just sit there waiting to report - they will not report.

I have suspended/no new work for Einstein.

I have tried to update Malaria & Rosetta but it looks like they will not report until Einstein can update.

Both Malaria & Rosetta show 'scheduler request pending' in the projects tab but no requests in the messages tab. I have rebooted shutdown & restarted Boinc, but nothing makes Malaria or Rosetta report. Plenty of WU coming down and uploading when finished - but won't report.

Several Malaria & Rosetta WU's expire in the next day or so - How do I make them report so I don't lose them?
