Brad... hold on to your saddle, we have an answer from the makers of BOINC what the error 500 actually is.

Error 500 =

when the server gets a connection error it can't handle it sends a 500 error ...

Brad, Take a look at the

Brad,

Take a look at the "Sticky" from Bruce at the top of this board. If your computer time is set accurately and if you work out your offset from UTC you should be able to go to the link Bruce posted and find the appropriate "hour" folder in which you will find the server logs split into minute intervals. If you are correct in your computer's time to better than 0.5 minutes you should be able to download and/or view the correct chunk of the server logs and so (perhaps with a bit of searching) find the actual entry that belongs to your computer.

I've not tried it yet myself and I'm a bit busy at the moment but you should be able to match up your log event with the corresponding log event on the server so that you can see actually what the server was thinking when you got that error 500. If you've got time to hunt down the particular log entries for any of your error 500s, I'm sure a number of people would probably be interested in putting it all "under the microscope" to see if we could work out what's going on.

For anyone else to do it, you would need to tell us your computer's time "error" as accurately as possible and your offset from UTC. Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Gary.

How do I determine my time error?

Look at what your computer

Look at what your computer time says and look at what the real time is through an independent means (ntp server, radio time, internet site with accurate time, etc). How accurate is a wall clock where you are?

You can make your computer always accurate by getting it to sync up with an internet time server. Right click your clock in the systray -> adjust date/time and look at the internet time tab.

Cheers,
Gary.

OK, my time is good. Do I

OK, my time is good. Do I have this right:
1-Get time of error from my message logs.

2-Go to Bruce's link and match time of entries with my error 500.

After a quick look at those (to me incomprehensible) server logs, I wonder- isn't there some kind of ID in there indicating my case. Trying to match times seems a little indirect. Isnt' my computer tagged?

You do have an id number for your account. However, I think they pretty much cleaned up all of the personal details (ip addy, etc) to make them "safe" as possible. But I could be wrong.
