Seti is down again

[Richard Haselgrove]

No, not a problem at all - just typical congestion.

All it means is that you already tried to contact the scheduler to report that result. The scheduler got the message and acted on it, then sent a message back to acknowledge the report.

You never got that acknowledgement (fell down some wormhole in the internet). So BOINC didn't know the report had got through, and reported it again, just to be on the safe side: that's when you get the rather tetchy "I know, I know - been there and done that. Don't bother me with it again." message.

It's the same process as creates ghost results - you ask, it allocates, but the reply message disappears down that wormhole.

My results are being acknowledged ok.

My results are being acknowledged ok.

Sorry, wasn't meaning you - I'm sure most of them are.

It was a comment related to Hans Kramer's error message, and 52 aces' - wrong - explanation of it. I han't noticed we'd reached a page break, or I would have quoted one or both.

I wasn't referring to you either 
My post was an answer to those two too. Your post was more thorough though

Serve ok but I cannot see my tasks

As those are very high cost queries to the Boinc Database they were moved to the Replica Database. So even when the Replica is running it may be a few seconds behind reality.

Anything with very high detail about a "User and his/her computers" is a high cost query.

Seti went dark a couple of hours ago........
No forums, no nothing.  Total crash, cannot even reach the servers.
Either the servers went down hard, or there could be a total network failure up to the hill.
Cricket graphs are still accessible, so the campus is reachable.
Hopefully it is not too serious, and they can get things back up in a couple of hours when they boyz get into the lab this morning.

Even http://seti.berkeley.edu/ (which covers all the SETI activity at Berkeley, like Serendip, as well as sah@home) is unreachable, which is worrying - maybe the whole of SSL is down, as Mark suggests. Perhaps the brakes on that shuttle bus failed again, and it plowed into a fibre junction box? Hope not, though there shouldn't be too many people around at this time in the morning.

Hey, here is also (already) a Berkeley OFFLINE thread..

Do you mean this thread, which has been used as necessary since May 2009, or the competitor SETI is down... which was only started today?

It was only a little hint because of the other new thread..

Or maybe a janitor plugged his vac into the wrong socket and kicked a router offline....LOL.

Something took Seti completely offline again...........
As of a couple of hours ago they went completely dark.  Like the last time, the Cricket graphs are still accessible, but not a thing from the hill.

[msattler]

And we are back online!!!!!!!
Meowwwwwwwwwww!

[Gizbar]

Another weekend, another shutdown... :-(

Kick them damn Seti servers, somebody!

Everything seemed to be going so well.
