I have 3 or 4 computers that cant get new work units. Is it just me, or are others having this same problem.



 
i constantly have this problem at work....check your router/firewall and then what i do is going into to services.msc and restart the service...you can also go to stanfords website and check the server status.
 
Ive checked the usual suspects, networ, router, and restarted the service as well as rebooting.

Usually that gets it working, ill check stanford I guess.


 
and yea...stanford is showing like 4 problem servers right now, so i guess sit back and relax until they come back.
 
I brought a system up last night and was having trouble with getting timeless units. I had no problem when I changed the config to accept timed units (i.e. Server problem on stanfords side as stated above).
 
Sounds good, was just really checkin to see if it was a ME problem or a THEM problem.



For now, im sneakernetting work units around to keep all my rigs in work....hopefully the outage wont last long 8)

Well, as of 7:00 PM EST Stanford has issues again, 3 servers down and 4 full. Don't know why but it always happens on a weekend.

These are supposed to be educated people right? :rolleyes:
 
Stanford, Stanford, im trying to remember.
Someone once told me it was education,
but maby im wrong...... >;)

Yes indeed, a true Institution of Higher Education.

The problem with most of those “Institutions” remains the same though, they can’t teach common sense. :rolleyes:

Those that have common sense know better than to try and teach it! :D


 
I didn't end up going to work today, so I don't know if my work system got a timeless unit or not, but it had been a couple of days without one already. Luckily, that's just a second instance on that machine and it was still running regular units just fine.

I hope it grabbed a timeless by now. I guess when it comes back up I will set it to cache some extra units so I don't have to worry about downtime.

A very good idea. Even if your internet connection is down, it will keep on chugging through the WUs.
