134.139.127.31 Cannot connect to work server

Hi I'm new...

The specific servers listed for two packets have been failing uploading quite a bit.

The first..

Look to up fully active when looking at the server status page, but I cannot bring up that ip on my browser on either. Other WU's are being returned successfully.

Thanks!

Sorry for the above messy posts.. didn't realize what the code tag option could be used for!!

Still getting failures on this server. Now up to 43 attempts

I see this server is in the 'Accepting' status and there have been some WUs returned within the past half hour. Can you connect to http://134.139.127.34:80/ and http://134.139.127.34:8080/ via your browser?

[jwwPhotos]

Hmmm... yes I can. I do get an ok. Possibly the next time around it will finally send!

..or do you think I have an issue on my client? I have other packets that have returned, but as you can see my client isn't connecting when it finally attempts. Is there some extra command I should be adding to my client or a way to retry that one queue manually?

Thanks so much for your help!!

[bruce]

If you can upload some units and not others, there is nothing in the client that can be done about it. There's a high probabilty that it's a problem with a specific server and it will be fixed by the Pande Group when possible. The client is specifically designed to take this into account by holding the WU and retrying automatically.

If you wish to study the data on the Server Status page it may tell you more about the problem, but there's nothing that you can do about it except perhaps to test the specific connection as anandhanju suggested.

[jwwPhotos]

Hi Bruce,

Thanks so much for your reply. I am still able to get the OK status on both IP's and for fun, stopped and restarted the client which seems to force a retry and still get the cannot connect. The status pages still shows it is accepting and nothing else seems out of place. So I dunno.. So maybe the server is just full or something as someone suggested on another server I reported.

I understand that at least it stays on the the queue and resends. The reason I am mentioning all this is that over the past week or so since I have joined Folding, I now have 5 out of 10 queue slots that are still trying to send. Since that same timeframe only a total of 7 WU's were successfully sent. It just looked like a bad percentage to me!! At any rate, I will keep reporting those IP's!

Thanks again!

Yes, that really is a bad percentage.
* Which version of the client are you using?
* Have you modified any of the default configuration settings?
* Please describe how your machine is connected to the internet.

Yes, that really is a bad percentage.
* Which version of the client are you using?
* Have you modified any of the default configuration settings?
* Please describe how your machine is connected to the internet.

*I am using Version CPU client 6.23
*I added -verbosity 9 when I started seeing issues so I could report here better and just today enabled Do Not Lock Cores since I have a Quad CPU and figured that would boost the performance a bit when I am afk.
*I am connected via a router to a DSL modem.

Further info. I am able to bring up the pages in my browser at least on this WU's IP and have even tried turning off my firewall when restarting the folding client and still get 0 out of 5. I've checked the firewall and the folding client has access.

Thanks again for your help!

[bruce]

I don't see the 0 out of 5 that you're talking about. The log you posted shows two WUs. One is numbered 06 which failed to upload to servers 134.139.127.31 and 134.139.127.34 and another numbered 08 failed to upload to servers 128.143.48.226 and 128.143.48.227.

Sorry for the confusion.. I have them reported under their seperate IP addresses and must have grabbed two on the above. Here is the full portion of the log showing the connectivity issues if it helps...

No, you did it correctly. I just wasn't understanding what you were saying.

You do have 5 WUs that have failed to upload. That represents 3 work servers and 3 collection servers which is pretty bad, but not as bad as I was suspecting.

WU 00 on servers 171.64.65.111 and 171.67.108.17
WU 01 on servers 171.64.65.111 and 171.67.108.17
WU 02 on servers 128.143.48.226 and 128.143.48.227
WU 06 on servers 134.139.127.31 and 134.139.127.34
WU 08 on servers 128.143.48.226 and 128.143.48.227

Servers 171.64.65.111 and 128.143.48.226 are somewhat busy but you should be getting through. Server 134.139.127.31 is very lightly loades so I'm suspecting that it's something on your end.

What kind of router do you have? What happens if you temporarily remove it from the area of concern by connecting the PC directly to the modem and restarting the client.

I have a Dlink DIR 655 and see nothing in the router logs that suggests it is an issue.

I can hit all 3 of these IP's with my browser and get the OK as well as able to ping to them. That suggests to me that my connectivity is fine, but possibly the folding client isn't waiting long enough and in essence times out when attempting to send. I have even tried restarting the folding client to force a send right after getting the OK as well as successful ping, but still no luck.

For fun, I checked my firewall logs and see nothing of note and even tried restarting the folding client with it off and get the same results.

I can try to remove the router, but as it exists to share connectivity throughout my home to all my other pc's, that test may have to wait for a day I am not that busy as well as anyone else here needing access to the internet. ..but again, if I can ping to the server, I'm not sure how it is my router.

Let me know if you have any other suggestions in the meantime. I really appreciate the help!


** quick update **
Just finished another WU and that one was able to transmit successfully. Here is that bit of log info..

Still not able to connect to these and now have another queue failing even though I have had successful returns on others during this time. I now have 6 queues out of 10 not able to return work. Please read above message for more details.
