Complete WU Not Uploading While Other WUs Complete/Upload

[RickP]

This is my first forum post, so excuse me if I miss something in proper decorum for the thread.

I began support of folding over the last month and my main machine is a iMac 27 3.4GHz Intel Core i7, 32 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM, AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048 MB. I am using F@H Client 7.5.1, and on default settings except Folding Power, which has been set to full for the last week or so. I have had no issues with the first 100+ WUs under this configuration.

I have a WU which has completed but does not upload, and has been so for 2 days now. The log shows the following on the most recent attempt to upload:

18:28:01:WU00:FS00:Sending unit results: id:00 state:SEND error:NO_ERROR project:13828 run:797 clone:2 gen:111 core:0xa7 unit:0x0000008480fccb095d657f0c7bf23b30

The same result has occurred many times over that period, with the same result each time. It doesn't appear to be stopping other work, as I continue to download, process, and then upload completed WUs while this one is hung up. The info on the WU in question, from FAH Control:

The reason I am inquiring is to understand if there is an issue, a means of removing a defective or "stuck" unit, and if it is impairing my ability to handle workload. It may only be the recently added user base, but it does appear the WUs are much smaller since this one has been hung up.

Thank you for any information you can provide. If further information is needed, please let me know.

Completed work units that fail to upload don't prevent your CPU or GPU from completing & turning in other work units (at least, that's been my experience). Best thing to do is let it keep trying. If it never manages to upload, it will be deleted automatically after the expiration date.

Welcome to the F@H Forum RickP,

Please note that we have seen a huge increase of load on the F@H Servers: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=33193
There is work being done by the F@H Team to meet the demand and it's coming along well. Progress has been made but there is a bit more to go.

Thank for the replies, I will let it run as is. As you mentioned, it doesn't seem to interfere with other work being downloaded or processed. I'm a bit new to all of this, so I wasn't;t sure if this sort of thing is a concern. Again, thanks!

Update:

Took a little over 2 days, but finally on another restart, this WU did upload. Thanks for the input.
