Plenty of load balancer, system error, and other crap now. The WCG site is basically totally unusable. |

In reply to Dave's message of 2 Aug 2026:I was able to look at my results yesterday but the load balancer message is back this morning. Shouldn't really complain as I am still getting work even if no ARP tasks for what seems like forever!Yeah, there are lots of load balancer messages now again, from time to time. It's possible to get through though, with lots of retries, and tons of patience. |

Website: 503: Load Balancer is unable to route your request to an available server, most likely there is an issue in our infra that we are working to resolve. BOINC services and the webserver are different backends, so one may be still be handling traffic while the other is down, and in the case of the BOINC backend it is also possible the servers are temporarily too busy to handle your request at this time, and trying again shortly will work as normal. |

The "Results name" heading, is now working when clicking on the link, on the Results page. It finally shows the WU. The "Status" heading though, still does not show the task result, when clicking on the link. The "CPU time/Elapsed time" heading, now shows both values. The "Claimed Credit/Granted Credit" heading, still only shows the Granted Credit. So, there is some progress..... |

Payments with VISA cards in Sweden, also seems to be impossible now. Maybe the same in other countries too. |

I do have a smart TV, but it's never connected to the Internet. I only connected it to download updates, and then immediately disconnected it again. There will not be any more updates available, so no need to ever connect it again to the Internet. Apart from smart TV's, I'm also allergic to smartphones. I have a simple 4G phone, that is totally dumb :-) |

In reply to Jord's message of 20 May 2026:I've finally gotten an answer from Eric:It must have been more than a simple user account, to be able to access the site in a malicious way. Or perhaps there was a security issue with the site, making it possible to hack it, through a simple user account. |

In reply to PMH_UK's message of 19 May 2026:Forum still down, BOINC & other web pages appear OK.Well, with the forum down, the team doesn't have to bother about all the complaints that people post. They already know that the system is in a mess. :-) |

In reply to Sirius B's message of 13 May 2026:Nice to see a new project, Mapping Arthritis Markers.I think that you need to install one of the newer Visual C++ Redistributable 2015-2022, or even Visual C++ Redistributable 2022, to make MAM work. I just installed Visual C++ Redistributable 2015-2022 on one of my Windows 8.1 computers. Maybe it works for MAM on Windows 8.1. I think that Visual C++ Redistributable 2022 package is too new for Windows 8.1. See the following part of the Operational Status page, from January 7, 2026: Windows build of MDMG/MAM1 v7.08 successfully completed, deployment to beta30 in progress. We may have to include a large number of DLLs including pre-built LibTorch CPU libraries at first. These range in system requirements for Windows 10/11 64-bit with Visual C++ Redistributable 2015-2022, but for this initial build that successfully ran the test suite for the LibTorch backend in powershell on Windows 10, we expect that Visual C++ Redistributable 2022 is required. We've documented all third-party licenses (all permissive: BSD, MIT, Apache, NCSA, Zlib), and are hopeful a full static build will follow. System requirements are expected to be 4GB RAM or more, about ~300MB disk for application + DLLs, and we will be running the Windows build exclusively in beta for now starting sometime this week, and ramping up with the Linux build as we analyze first results. |
