Hallo Oliver!
Thanks for curing this.
It would be verry nice and helpful to have a signe in the project daemons on the Server Status Page, as mentioned sometimes before.

Kind regads and happy crunching

I agree. We'll look into it but it may take some more time as we've got a special setup the needs a custom integration. Right now we first need to focus on shipping more work :-)

Cheers,

The upload server and its automated respawn facility failed. Uploads should be working again now. We're slightly understaffed at the moment and simply didn't notice the problem right away. We'll try to add a dedicated monitor for the upload server to improve the alert chain...

Sorry for the glitch,
Oliver

Hi Oliver,

Neat work.. Nice to see a swift resolution to a problem once staff are aware that there is one, something other projects would do well to emulate.

Regards,
Cliff

So my two LATeah tasks, that took about 13 hours processing each, have now disappeared without trace.

No notices.

Does free = no value?

Anyone know any good reasons for me not to be de-motivated?

What kind of "notices" do you expect? Are they listed in your account details?

Best,

His computer statistics page shows 2 completed tasks (with granted credit) and one in progress. Looks fine to me.
Personally I'd like a notice every time I finish a task. Preferably a personal thank you mail from you Oliver. No boiler plate thank you. It gotta be hand written every time or it just doesn't say "thank you" :)

Thanks for responding. I'm fairly new, so please bear with me if I don't know my way around.

I thought that if there were general server issues, that something might be posted on the "Notices" page of the BOINC Manager?

The two missing tasks don't show on the "Tasks" section of the Personal Settings that you linked to, if that's what you mean?

Hi Logforme. The tasks you

Hi Logforme. The tasks you see on my page are not the missing ones - they are two previously completed tasks, plus the one that's currently running.
