But here (currently) the folder seems simply not to exist - let alone the files which would normally live in it. Only the project staff can explain that.

This shows it's been unavailable for just over a month:

For some reason the host XML disappeared first?

Since the urls end in '.php', that's a program which queries the project's internal database, and displays the numbers 'live on the fly'. Again, it's a generic part of the BOINC server toolkit: all projects can use it if they wish, but not every site will make a live link available on their website. CPDN rather seems to have only a partial server installation on their new hardware, so far.

Edit: the Wayback machine has several snapshots of the old server stats, but you have to go back to 18 August 2021 to see a fully-active sample.

What you get here are 3 files with this content:

bad URL

It looks like that reply is generated on the fly by a script.
If so, you may need to copy the real stats files to the correct server location and disable the script.

Up to a point. The files expected by the external sites are generated from the internal database by a standard BOINC server tool - db_dump, now documented at https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/wiki/DbDump (all the documentation has moved recently). I'd suggest that either the program hasn't been configured to run on the new server yet, or the final locations haven't been created yet.

But it would still be wise to get to the bottom of the mysterious doubling of the existing stats before exposing them to the world.

It's amazing how much math my generation can do in our heads compared to kids today that need a calculator to do the most rudimentry arithmetic.

At my engineering school, order-of-magnitude calculations were emphasized, to catch the mistakes that people did with more precise methods.
Also, it gave you a greater physical feel for the subject matter. I think many political mistakes are made by people who have not the slightest idea of the magnitude of what they are talking about.

Export time stamps on BOINCStat;s as of now.....

Can you please bump those above with an email again.

Thanks

Bill F, send me the right links! Thanks! For my purposes (Pay-out of some GRC), there is no problem if it is not up-dated every day. It is even better, it is only every week;-) I do it by hand on spreadsheets...

"https"

Ta. Why no automatic redirect? On second thoughts, we'd better not ask the Engineering Department IT support team that.

Anyway, with the 's' in place, you can see when the stats export was last created:

db_dump.xml	2021-09-23 14:40

The new one should have arrived eight minutes ago. Any bets?

I paid out some GRC to climateprediction.net users the last couple of weeks. I was always wondering, how to obtain this user stats XML files directly from climateprediction.net (Last update user XML 2021-09-23 12:40:28 UTC (5 days 09:04:14 old)).
I would highly appreciate, if anyone might help/guide me to obtain the files. Please PM me.
So, I will not have to copy past it from boincstats.com and might semi-automate pay-outs.
Thanks a lot!

Major shock! 2 credit updates within a week!

Thank you. I thought it was the fault of both the machines. One Turbo-Boosts the clock speeds all by itself. Gaming laptop, I switched off these tendencies of it. I cannot switch off its Hyper-Threading because Acer has locked the BIOS. The other one switched off its HT, but it also started giving errors. I hope I complete one at least out of seventeen. So far, nine have gone to the graveyard.
