Raefordite 0 #279 April 24, 2003 Ok, I sent this e-mail and have not gotten a response. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks! I have two completed WU's that have not sent results because of periodically online. Is there a way for me to manually send you results. Or manually initiate a transfer of information? Thank you, Raefordite Team #31515 [21:32:04] - Couldn't send HTTP request to server [21:32:04] + Could not connect to Work Server (results) [21:32:04] - Error: Could not transmit unit 02 (completed April 20). Keeping unit in queue. [06:11:38] + Attempting to send results [06:11:38] - Couldn't send HTTP request to server [06:11:38] + Could not connect to Work Server (results) [06:11:38] - Error: Could not transmit unit 03 (completed April 23).

Cajones 0 #280 April 24, 2003 A few ideas... It looks like you are running the console version. Are you on dial-up? If you are, you may want to configure your version to [Yes] for "Ask before fetching data?" (I think that's the dialog - it's something to that effect) The other possibility is you jut happened to try to send during a server outage. The servers do periodically go down, but usually come back up after 10-15 minutes. The laws of physics are strictly enforced. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sfc 1 #281 April 24, 2003 stop and start the app while you are online. I had this problem once, it tries automatically every 6 hours, but you can force it by exiting and restarting, it will try to send the queue when it restarts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raefordite 0 #282 April 24, 2003 Thanks. I did reconfigure it so it asks me before trying to upload/download. I hope once my present work is complete I can get all the information sent. I know they have recognized the problem with dial up (like I haven't ) and will hopefully add to the software so I can manually tell it when to go get and when to give me more! Thanks for the help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadDog 0 #289 April 25, 2003 Question: Would it be more productive to run FAH console on a Linux partition or FAH Graphical (minimized) on a ME partition? Anybody know? Any opinions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jfields 0 #290 April 25, 2003 QuoteQuestion: Would it be more productive to run FAH console on a Linux partition or FAH Graphical (minimized) on a ME partition? Anybody know? Any opinions? Opinion only: Run it in the console under Linux. First off, ME is the abomination OS. Talk about unstable crap. I'm not in the "Linux or die" camp, but even as a Wintel guy, I'd avoid that one. Next, in general, the performance of any console version will edge out the graphical version. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadDog 0 #291 April 25, 2003 I assume that running the console as a service on an XP or 2K machine is preferable to running the graphical. Right? (I want all of your secrets.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jfields 0 #292 April 25, 2003 Quote I assume that running the console as a service on an XP or 2K machine is preferable to running the graphical. Right? Correct. Anything that unecessarily uses processor cycles is overhead. I don't need to watch the graphics. Actually, since I have it on multiple machines, I couldn't really make use of that anyway. The console version is the "thinnest" client, wasting the fewest cycles for administration and fluff. The main benefit of running it as a service (under any Windows OS) is that it runs full-time while the computer is on, whether or not you are logged in. That also helps if you are running Folding in an office setting where multiple people could be logging in and using the machine under various IDs. Quote I want all of your secrets. They aren't secrets. I'm happy to share. Passing around the knowledge helps us work for a worthy cause.... and kick some whuffo butt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Cajones 0 #295 April 25, 2003 The console version is definitely more efficient than the graphical client. The real advantage of the graphical client is when other people see it and ask what it is. You might be suprised how many people will join the cause after seeing it. The console version cannot be installed as a service under Win95/98/Me. To run the console version, you have to open a DOS window and run it from there. If you are annoyed by the little window or don't want it to appear on the task bar, I can write a small executable to hide it when it runs. It won't allow you to see the program running (you can still look at the unitinfo text file to see progress), nor to shut it down gracefully, but it's just another thing to click on when shutting down/rebooting.
