Is any chance for project admins to establish file storage where you could upload files or you upload it to dropbox or whatever and they manually import it back to system to stop this saga to happen and give your wife a chance to use home phone?)

could you disable any proxies for these uploads as discussed?
you may enable this later
also do you have antivirus on run?
would you exclude BOINC both folders from it or fully disable it?

definetely some internet/network settings affected
then you switched to dial-up via USB or cam1 - probably USB, you've created brand new port with default settings.
as proposed before to reset NIC adapter settings will help in future, but not via netsh.
simplest is remove NIC, restart in safe mode
go to registry and delete everything in connection with old NIC

enable hidden devices in device manager and remove them all if something remains

Mark's ISP is TPG which I assume one of top 5 in AU.
Mark, by chance did you contact techsupport of TPG? May be I missed that before?

So it might be a general settings of something you've possibly applied to all machines?
its hard to test tor now cause no work available but another solution might be
1. brand new clean install of windows - may be virtualised too
2. get one project only
3. wait till task finished

could physical file be broken due to writing issue.
to fix you need either refresh particular files for project, either whole project or whole BOINC. you may delete project (having it copied before onto USB or other drive) and reconnect and replace files
1. run chkdsk c: /r /x
then asked to schedule check after restart confirm
2. restsrt then possible and wait till full scan finished
3. then restarted
4. copy BOINC folder to USB or other drive in full
5. do steps to refresh files or project or whole installation
6. enjoy your uploads!

the simplest in your case is to
- have blank PC with proved connectivity
- install same BOINC version
- copy full content of any failed client to that PC
- play with copied content

Could you post an HTTP debug trace like the one MarkJ posted here?

To do that you'll need a cc_config.xml in your BOINC data directory containing the following:


<cc_config>
<log_flags>
<http_debug>1</http_debug>
<http_xfer_debug>1</http_xfer_debug>
</log_flags>
</cc_config>

I can try the registry hack tonight Sydney time.

Registry entry added on one machine. Rebooted. Not using proxy. First two WU upload failed (at 31% and 11%) third one still going. Lets see if it can pass 91%...

Nope stopped at exactly 91%


you may reset tcp/ip via netsh command
also Microsoft had special ip-protocol fix-it utility in case of buffer overload etc

If issue sits on router side, please switch it off for some long time >10 min at least

@Coku:


apart of your great post proposals mine issue was pretty simple: upload limit was 50Mb and seems previous ones been smaller and newer are all 51-52 Mb so it's easily fixed by increasing limit.
Thanks everyone


How did you increase the limit?

depenfs on product you use.
mine proxies are both Microsoft and Linux, so Linux had low limit.

My ISP is TPG.

Computers are all connected to a home router which is using ADSL2+.The router hasn't changed in the last 6 months.


why on Earth you use proxy for home connection man?

I've checked the router. It's using PPPoE with an MTU size of 1492.

No mate, MTU is just frame of IP packet
I recall I may have some limitations for uploads and mine misunderstood was based on previous successfull uploads. They might be really smaller than mine upload limit.
Thanks for clue again

I've started a new thread, as the conversation was getting cluttered in others.

So, more careful reading of listings and vague memories, shows up something: Proxies and Squid.

First, I'd like to ask for some more info from both of you:

1) Are your affected computers at home, or in an "office" environment?
2) Does the connection between the computer and "the phone line" involve a router?
3) Do you normally use a proxy server?
4) Both of you are in Australia, which is suspicious, so: What is the name of your ISP?

No doubt more questions to come over an extended period. I don't think very fast these days.

For the record, my ISP is BigPond, the 2 models on one of my computers finished yesterday and everything uploaded OK.
The 4 on my other computer finish in about 12 hours.



1. office. I'll make a shot from different location then possible
2. yes routers but no major changes for a while. also other 3-5 projects are fine via same proxy and routers
3. yes proxy but no major changes for a whlie
4. iiNET ISP which been recently Netspace ISP purchased by iiNET

Also upload stalls on 100% upload, which is fully scores all data and stalls with 100% like 51.2M/51.2M
some of computers recently reported strabge though like 100% 51.3/51.2 or 51.1/51.2 which I've considered suspicios but hittinh update button made 51.2/51.2 balance restored

I've had uploads complete since you first reported this problem.

What happens if you paste

http://rapid-watch.badc.rl.ac.uk/cpdn_cgi/file_upload_handler

into a browser address bar?

I get

<data_server_reply>
    <status>1</status>
    <message>no command</message>
</data_server_reply>

suggesting that the server is alive and waiting for me.


thanks for clue
I get this from different computers - tested 3 of them
