FYI...

I'm seeing unfamiliar URLs in BOINC message window as Einstein attempts to download WU, fails, then tries again.

Getting following message:
"URL http://einstein.astro.gla.ac.uk/download/einstein_S5RI_4.24_windows_intelx86.exe: system fopen
Can't create HTTP response output file projects/einstein.phys.uwm.edu/einstein_S5RI_4.24_windows_intelx86.exe

Next download attempted from einsein.aei.mpg.de
Next download attempted from einstein.phys.uwm.edu
(which I do recognize as legitimate BOINC location)
Next download attempted from einstein.aset.psu.edu
then continues to cycle.

I searched Message Boards for these web sites and found no discussion of them. I would have thought a list of valid/approved URLs/web sites would have been listed somewhere.

After multiple detach/re-attach to project and aborting download, finally also temporarily disabled ZoneAlarm firewall, then reattached and download completed from ??(not specified)
ZoneAlarm reactivated. Will see if issue reappears after WU completes.

Send all flames about ZoneAlarm to the bit bucket.

There are mirror sites in Glasgow, Germany( Albert Einstein Institute at Max Planck Gessellschaft ), Penn State Uni ( I think ) in addition to UWM.

Cheers, Mike.

You can find all mirror sites

You can find all mirror sites in the \\BOINC\\sched_reply_einstein.phys.uwm.edu.xml file.
