Noticed that I have been having trouble getting new work. Been getting this error message all night.

Should I just keep waiting?

Was this resolved yet?

If not, have you configured your client for Small/Normal/Big packets?

Prberg, the server status page shows this to be accepting but not issuing work units. Several of the classic client servers are showing the same thing. You might try changing your client settings as Bruce suggested to see if you can find some work. If that doesn't seem to help, I would suggest you check out the PantherX troubleshooting guide for comms. It doesn't look like you are having trouble reaching a server, they are simply not issuing work. Let us know how it goes. Here is the guide: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=17794

ok, we see the issue. I've alerted the ND team. They need to upgrade their WS to get a patch which should take care of this issue. For now, we've down-weighted this on the AS to avoid assigns to it.

Hi

The WS has been upgraded and the GRO-A4 projects are now in full F@H.
