I'm temporarily suspending the project to give time to empty the disk.

Don't worry, We'll be waiting to fill it again...
Thank you for warning.

Ah, should have checked earlier here. Was wondering the whole day why my finished tasks don't get reported and no new tasks are incoming. Happy to start again as soon as the project is up again!

In your BOINC mgr, under tools you'll find Event log.
You can get troubleshooting help there. 😃

Mine currently says
4/27/2020 4:11:47 PM | GPUGRID | Project is temporarily shut down for maintenance
4/27/2020 4:11:47 PM | GPUGRID | Project requested delay of 3600 seconds

My BOINC-Manager can't communicate with the GPUGrid-Server, in the logs i do have the same Message "Project is temporarily shut down for maintenance" since yesterday (as i wanted to start with this project).
Please have a look at this topic, otherwise i have no chance to get workunits.

Greets,
Mark

My BOINC-Manager can't communicate with the GPUGrid-Server...

Nobody can communicate with the server at the moment - it's not personal to you. Toni will re-open it when the disk space has been cleared, and not before. Keep your eye on this thread for announcements, but do be aware that there will be quite a rush when the flood-gates are opened.

Ah, I also wondered, in the future I'll check here first. This morning the BOINC client told me there were connection issues so I thought this might have been the impact on GPUGRID although I couldn't verify any connection issues.

Also, there is an useful page to real-time check Server status.

i dont know how things work but if (Toni) send a mess to us (12) houer befor .. so we can load (some) wu befor he exit so we have work untill he finish the servic ? or is it all wrong? (for next time)

Stopping the server suspends assignment of WUs, but not (as far as I know) uploads.

I usually save 0.2-05 wu on the computer. (In order not to get any job old) But with a warning I had set it to 1-2 instead. And had a job for 1-2 days extra .. ///google translater//

Result files upload is not suspended itself, but BOINC Manager can't inform to server that tasks are finished, and they stay indefinitely at "Ready to report" state...

Suspending again.

Actually just posted about it but my work units are failing to upload due to the disk being full.

I had gotten quite a huge task again that needed over a day to complete. Then, I needed 1,5 days to upload it as the server wouldn't accept it earlier. Due to a similar task in the past it'll most likely be approx. 90k points outstanding. Expiration date is tomorrow afternoon. If it can't be validated and all the time/current was wasted I'll be pissed not happy.

Maybe think about server hardware enhancements. You may get more users now as Corona-Virus attracted many people for folding@home and if their servers are too busy then some will join GPUgrid as fallback.

Please be aware that this weekend is a major public holiday in the country where GPUGrid is based.

Allow a little extra slack for the people still working in these uncertain times.

You are probably referring to this PABLO WU.

...Expiration date is tomorrow afternoon. If it can't be validated and all the time/current was wasted...

Don't be afraid about this.
This WU has been assigned to you only, and there is no risk to be assigned to anybody more after deadline, because Scheduler is currently down.
As soon as server is working again, your WorkUnit will be informed as finished, and your kind time/current won't be wasted.
Well...
For this not being so, the following circumstances have to be met:
-1) WU deadline is reached.
-2) Server is brought operative again while your system is switched off or not connected to Internet.
-3) The same WU is assigned to other user, then finished and reported before your system does :-O

You are probably referring to this PABLO WU.

Exactly.

Don't be afraid about this.

It was validated 60 seconds ago, 97k! I don't like waste, that's all, esp. not such a big one. My card working hard for 24 hours in vain is different from losing, let's say, a 5 hour or 7 hour task.

a look at the project status page shows that the project seems to be suspended again?

Also, an uploaded task on one of my hosts sticks with "ready to report" in the status line of the BOINC manager.
