GPU assignment server down?

Post by beer »

HI
I worked up this morning to a nonfolding GPU and did find this in my log

Code: Select all

It's working for me. The error message indicates a DNS issue or no internet connection at all.

I can role out the internet connection problem since I could post the above message from the very same computer. I cannot garante that it is not a DNS problem. I will report back if it still fails when I come home today

Try rebooting your router. The error message may be a little unhelpful in this case, since I wouldn't naturally associate a DNS fault with my router, but it has worked for me more than once.
