If the problem hasn't yet sorted itself out, confirm by going to the transfers tab, selecting an upload entry and click on 'retry now'. If the upload still fails, try stopping and restarting BOINC. If still no joy, do a full reboot of your machine.

If still no action, reboot your modem/router - ie reset your internet connection.

From time to time the servers can become unresponsive due to load conditions but it's usually a fairly temporary condition. I'm not having any problem uploading results so the problem is likely to be somewhere at your end.

Cheers,
Gary.

Nothing helped. On advice

Nothing helped.

On advice of friend i tried to use fidler. Then i press retry now, but there is no comunication to server.

It looks like is bug in boinc i use (portable edition of 6.10.60)

Is posible to transfer results for this project to another (newer version of boinc witch i have at home pc) and send it?

What is 'fidler'??

If you have a friend with a different internet connection, you could always try to use that. That might be the simplest solution.

I very much doubt it's a BOINC bug. If it were, why is it preventing transfers now and not a couple of days ago? Are all projects being affected? If not, it's probably not a BOINC problem.

It's possible - but you have to make the 2nd computer 'pretend' to have the hostID of the first computer. It's quite easy in Linux but a bit more involved in Windows. With Windows you have to uninstall BOINC on the second computer, save the BOINC Data directory to a safe (different) location, copy the BOINC Data directory from the first computer to the correct location on the second computer, reinstall BOINC on the second computer making sure it finds the transferred Data directory (with the first computer's hostID). At that point you should be able to return the completed tasks and then completely reverse the procedure so as to give the second computer back it's original identity by copying back the saved Data directory. This is a brief outline of the procedure - there's plenty of potential for getting it wrong if you haven't done this sort of 'trickery' before.

I think there is a much simpler solution if you really think BOINC is the problem. Just stop BOINC and install a later version 'over the top' of your existing 6.10.60 installation.

Cheers,
Gary.
