Hi,

WUs cannot be uploaded.
No new work because of this error above.

Can someone have a look on it?

Regards Jörg

Hi Jörg, thanks for the report
you found a real server-side issue. After your client lost contact, it queued thousands of progress messages, and our web server was cutting the connection while the scheduler was still reading them, so every retry failed the same way. This is fixed now. Your client should recover on its next contact; you can speed it up by clicking "Update" for Eternity II in BOINC Manager. Your completed tasks will then upload and report normally.

Thanks Jörg, and thanks again for reporting it: your report is what led us to the fix.

Yes, it's much appreciate and in stark contrast to another project started around the same time.
