Sending a WU to Stanford
I'm watching the Network activity in Activity Monitor as a protein is being sent to Stanford.
41.5 kb / sec is the consistent speed of upload. So far, it's been 11 minutes since the upload began. Here's the log file.

So, 11 or 12 minutes to send.

Re: Sending a WU to Stanford
Even tho the WU was sent to Stanford 90 minutes before the 12 noon Central time stats update, my protein did not appear until the 3 pm update.
Downloading of a new protein is pretty quick. A minute or 2 on DSL. Whatever, its not long.

Re: Sending a WU to Stanford
I keep getting the following error:
Got Status Code 503 From server
and then...
+ Attempting to send results
Couldn't send HTTP request to server <wininet>
+Could not connect to Work Server <results>
<171.64.122.76:8080>
- Error: Could not transmit unit (UNIT NUMBER) to Collection server; keeping in queue.
I have 4 SMP work units sitting in the queue waiting to be uploaded, is this happening to anyone else? F@H has the correct permissions to bypass the firewall, it was working in the past so I'm guessing a "503" is an issue on Stanford's end, is that right?

Re: Sending a WU to Stanford
Actually I found that it is two different servers giving me grief 
Unit 07 made it in a few days ago but 06,08,09 and 10 are stuck in Queue for the following servers:
(2 WUs each pending)
171.64.65.64:8080
171.64.122.76:8080
Back to coding for me, I'll see how this pans out.

This part of the log file concerns me more.
Set USE IE SETTINGS to NO.
I'd also be more concerned why the work server this WU originally came from isn't accepting connections either. The collection server should only be a backup.
Wait. MacLife forum? Which SMP client are you running? On what hardware?
Client=Windows SMP Client version 5.91 beta5
OS=Vista 64 Bit Home Premium
Hardware=Intel Q6600 @ 3.42 Ghz, 4GB Memory, P35 based MB
And the config file is as follows:
[settings]
username=Onanum
team=18
asknet=no
bigpackets=yes
machineid=1
[http]
active=no
host=localhost
port=8080
usereg=yes
[core]
cpuusage=100
checkpoint=10
[clienttype]
memory=1024
type=3

Re: Sending a WU to Stanford
The Folding group would like you to post there directly.
I attempted to quote the stuff clearly, but their forum software is a different dialect.

Awww man, I see an IE connection setting there. Now how do I reconfigure that without messing up the units in queue?
The rest of the log file wrote:
[Big long log file was here, bla bla bla
I'll set up an account on the other forum when I get a chance, I have a rather tight deadline for an ActionScript project that I have to get back to.
Thanks for the help Nefarious

Re: Sending a WU to Stanford
Holy heck it's hard to find info on editing the config file manually, I VPN'd into work and looked at the configuration file on the SMP machine there and found that it was one value "usereg=yes" that was giving me issues. userreg is the control for the Internet Explorer Connection setting, setting it to"userreg=no" was my first step. I also saw that I had both SMP machines set with the same Machine ID, I changed the Quad to a different ID along with the IE setting above and that instantly solved the issue.
Hope this helps anyone else with the same problem, and thank you to everyone on both forums for the assistance.
Though one work unit seems to have disappeared, I can live with that.
