Folding Forum

Hi, I didn't see any other logical place to put this, so I put it here. If there's a better place for it, then please move it there. Thanks!

I was going to look at my stats page, and when I went there, this message came up:

There was an error accessing/using the database.
Description: error opening wwwrun@vspdb5.stanford.edu:stats
Please send this error message and the conditions under which it was caused to the F@H researchers.
Thank you.

Now, this happened during the stats update time, when normally you get the message (I'm paraphrasing here) "Stats server is busy updating, you can look at team stats or 3rd-party stats sites."

The actual URL was:
http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/mai ... mnum=45862

I'm seeing the same thing even when the stats aren't supposed to be updating.

It has started working again, I'm seeing this now:

Stats update in progress

Oops, it's back to the failure mode again ...

Thank you. Dr. Pande has been notified.

Should be fixed now. Thanks for the notification.

Using FAH v 7.1.52 on a Ubuntu machine, accessing stats etc. wirelessly from my Intel iMac (OS 10.6.8) via Folding@home Client Control.

I usually have a peek at my stats online by clicking on my name under the Status/Identity tab in the FAHControl window.

This a.m. I found this message waiting instead :

There was an error accessing/using the database.

Thank you.

Apart from posting here to see if anyone has any insights, where else might I post to contact the 'F@H researchers'?

Seeing the same here and I noticed no stats were shown on the latest EOC update. Can't access stats using the Official link above ... same message.

Don't know if it'll help, but the daily user summary flat file is only populating with this timestamp - "Fri Feb 1 01:20:14 PST 2013" and nothing else.

Yes, I am getting the same error again:

I guess we'll have to wait until they wake up out there on the west coast.

I noticed just a few minutes ago (at the 7am Eastern time hour) that the User Stats page was attempting to do an update and the normal "Updating Stats" message was displayed. But at around 7:12am, it reverted back to the error screen rather than show any updated Stats.

Yes, I noticed the same thing, that the only 'normal' operation of the stats server was during the update period.

ok, we're on it.

Official donor and team stats links working again ... latest update on kakao does have data.

Error still showing on Client statistics.

Now error message on all three links of the Official stats.

Appears to come and go.
