We found and fixed the no results bug. It was a malformed embedded SQL query. But we are leaving the scheduler off overnight to let the transitioner work through it's backlog. The transitioner works a great deal faster with a small backlog and we hope yesterday's changes will go a long way in preventing a large backlog from recurring.
 
Yeah, it's down for the night. Hopefully everything will be good come morning like they say.
My main machine has managed to keep enough wu's to keep boincing but my second machine is back to classic.
I'm crossing my fingers for morning
 
My main rig has not seen a WU in almost three days... I have one rig shut down that has been running for alomst 2 years 24/7...

My last unit was uploaded yesterday... :bang head
 
Dead in the water here to. I've still got Predictor units, but a bunch of them expired recently, and their server hasn't been online to return the units!

Well at least I finally got to swap a DVD drive with a working tray into my main computer.

We are now up and running again, during the night we generated 400k results to be sent out. Things might be a bit wierd for awhile, somebody decided to launch a denial of service attach yesterday afternoon.

I have noticed one thing, my Credit totals jumped a lot, still no work though, hopefully just the result of lots of computers requesting at once and it'll be back to working shortly.

Just got 8 wu's downloaded to one machine the other machine gets (no work from project). done nothing for three days then got 900 credits, crazy.
 
Tried the update a few times got nothing viewing a post & notice the data lights on my router are going crazy both machines have 27 wu's should keep them going for a few days. :p

the transitioner is still way behind and so the project will probably run out of send-able work as early as 04:00 UT tomorrow

WOW!!! I got my first WUs around 5:30PM local and they expect to run out already around midnight. 400k in 6 hrs, now that's quick.
 
SETI@home - 2004-07-23 23:42:54 - Message from server: No work available (daily quota exceeded)

While I've got enough to last for about 2.5 days on each pc, I don't like that I have limits placed on me. I wonder if this limit is a general cap or is decided on a machine by machine basis.
