Error: Could not transmit unit to work server-171.64.122.136

Alright, so I recently started running F@H on my computer. I finished my second work unit today, but it wouldn't send. I'm not quite sure if this is the right forum, as I just joined forums today, after having these issues. It's not something that has to do with my internet, because that's been functioning the whole time.

Can someone please help me identify the problem?

Welcome to Folding@Home and to the Folding@Home Support Forum site. We're glad you decided to fold.

When you have problems uploading, one of the things to check is the Server Status page. There is a link at the top when in forum view. Here ---> http://fah-web.stanford.edu/serverstat.html

Your completed WU is trying to return to VSP69, which has an IP of 171.64.122.136.

From the log:

[02:44:58] + Could not connect to Work Server (results)
[02:44:58] (171.64.122.136:8080)
[02:44:58] + Retrying using alternative port
[02:45:19] - Couldn't send HTTP request to server
[02:45:19] + Could not connect to Work Server (results)
[02:45:19] (171.64.122.136:80)
[02:45:19] - Error: Could not transmit unit 02 (completed November 17) to work server.

According to the server status page, that server is down. The WU will remain in the queue and the client will try again every six hours or so until the server is back and can receive the WU. Meanwhile your client should be assigned to another appropriate server, get work, and continue to fold. :)

Thank you very much for your help.

It says that the server's full. What does that mean?

Thanks!

The column that contains "Full"s indicates if the server is set to assign work AND accept results as well ("Full"). However, a server's connectivity status is indicated by the column titled CONNECT, which is what sortofageek referred to.

See this linked post for more [maybe outdated ;)] info.
