Back to lots of "503 Service Unavailable" errors, and also "System Error", and from time to time "Log In" window, when already logged in, but not recognized as logged in.
Edit, added: And an extremely slow website.

If/when ARP comes back, at the same time as OPNG tasks are available, I fear that everything will come to a screeching halt.

Much better now. Almost what one could call "normal".

OPNG is about to run out, for now.

"The current OPNG run is almost complete. At the current rate, our cache of OPNG work units will be completed within the next 2 days.
The OPNG team plans to release more work units later in the month, and we will share more about this once the details have been confirmed.

Thanks for your continued support of this project!"

At least there's a trickle of OPNG tasks. So, the BOINC part of WCG is still working.

I don't know exactly when the WCG website fell over this time, but it's now totally screwed up again.

System Error, as usual.
And the forum error is : Error 500: javax.servlet.ServletException: net.myvietnam.mvncore.exception.DatabaseException: Error executing SQL in MVNForumPermissionWebHelper.getPermissionsForGroupGuest.

When it comes to WCG work through BOINC, at least OPNG seems to be very scarce at the moment.
I haven't selected MCM1 work, and with the System Error, it's not possible to change the settings either of course.
So, I can't say if it's possible to get any work at all from WCG.

I guess we just have to live with another "WCG is down" weekend, since they do not have any support during weekends, and outside of office hours.

Yes, WCG's website has been totally F'ed up, since OPNG tasks became available again. It's a Yo-Yo system, and totally unreliable.
The only part of WCG that works, at least almost normally, is the BOINC part. I'm getting hundreds of OPNG tasks/day.

If/when ARP comes back, the entire system will crash and burn, and be down for weeks or months (again) . There's no doubt about that.

Time again for another (hopefully short):

System error

World Community Grid is currently experiencing an unexpected error. Please check Facebook or Twitter for more information.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's clear, that WCG can't handle more than one (MCM1) project at the time. When it handed out only MCM1 work, it worked
pretty well, but now with OPNG work also, the website goes down often. At times even the BOINC part struggles, which
sometimes can be seen in the BOINC log.

Edit, added: And it's back. It only took 10 minutes this time.

The website, forum, and BOINC, recovered pretty fast, it took an hour or so. So for now, it's all normal, or as normal as WCG can be nowadays.

And now it's time again for another System Error period. I knew it was coming when the site became incredibly laggy.
Let's see how long this outage lasts.

System error

Edit, added: Now also spreading to the BOINC part of WCG: "World Community Grid 2024-02-15 09:27:12 Scheduler request failed: HTTP service unavailable"

The website works on and off. I managed to post on the forum, but then it became a 503 error again.
A minute later it worked, and next minute 503 again.

Edit: Now it's really screwed up. 503 errors, and then suddenly System error, and getting logged out.
Not possible to log in again when the website comes back, and then it goes away again. At least the
BOINC part of WCG still works.

For those interested in OPNG tasks, there is an increasing number OPNG work now, after a long time of no GPU work at all.
Now would be a good time to try to get some of them, before they run out again.

Weekend, and the WCG website is down, since 2024-02-11, 03:08 UTC+1

The usual error:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
System error

World Community Grid is currently experiencing an unexpected error. Please check Facebook or Twitter for more information.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No need to check FB, there's no news there of course. X formerly known as Twitter, is totally useless nowadays without an account, so I never check there.

EDIT: It's back again now. Just a short outage this time.
