My last 3 tasks are with "uploading" status and if I go to transfer tab I can see they indicate a progress of 1.33%, having transfer 2.30/171.88Kb and after 30 seconds of elapsed time, it stops and here the status indicates "Retry in xx:yy:zz that varies depending on the task.
Am I missing something? This is the first time that this situation is happening, since I started in 2005... Any light?

Stuck on uploading

Hi Roberto,

server status shows all green for upload/download mirrors. So it is most likely on your end. Try hit retry-button.

Ive had that happen a few

Ive had that happen a few times with me when my internet connection got shaky during an upload.

Highlight the job and press the retry button. If that doesn't work after a few tries you can always try shutting down boinc and then restarting it to see if it picks up the task again.

Another thing you can do is try to swap your settings from no internet access to unlimited internet access, let the program see 'internet availability states' change and reset itself,.. if thats the right term to use and see if that works.

Thanks for taking your time

Thanks for taking your time to answer. No joy. The curious thing is that I am running other projects from BOINC and all are uploading with no problems, so it is not a matter of wrong configuration from my proxy or anything like that... :( ...

This is totally off the wall

This is totally off the wall and please do not take it to mean I know what I am talking about but....

sometimes Ive seen routers lock stuff out for stupid reasons. Something was 'busy' when dns was reassigned.... whatever.... if you are running through a router, cable modem or whatever, try a full power down of computer / router / modem / etc etc and let everything come back up, reassign it's numbers to each other bla bla and see if that works?

Other than that, I have no other ideas besides possibly abort the task and flush it. I know you hate to do that after doing the work but if something is corrupt, you might not have any other choice.

Hopefully this helps.
