Download Error
)
I'm not aware of any download problems at the moment.
If you look inside client_state.xml in your BOINC directory it should list all the URLs of the mirror sites where that particular skygrid file should be obtainable. You could try to download it manually and put it in the E@H project sub-directory. Then stop and restart BOINC and see what happens.
Cheers,
Gary.

RE: I'm getting some

When you look at your tasks list on the website, it shows the client state for this particular task as "aborted by user". I'm wondering if you may have inadvertently terminated prematurely, the download of one of the large data files that this task depends on? I didn't think that a download error would be reported as "aborted by user" unless you had actually aborted something on which the task depended.
Cheers,
Gary.
