"HTTP service unavailable" or "Couldn't connect to server" appear to the current response to any Scheduler requests.

Yep, and trying to view tasks just isn't possible. Page just won't load.

That depends on how many tasks a host has, look at a host with just a few and it's O.K:

Had I finally run my 11th APv7 with less than 10% blanking... now cache is empty.

Claggy, not quite true there. Even with a single task to be reported I am seeing "couldn't connect to server" or "HTTP internal server error" and that is across 4 machines.

It's been like this for a while (a bit on, a bit off).

The project is clagged mate, no pun intended.

If this is somehow related to a recent coding change I think they should unwind it.

That response was about viewing tasks pages, not whether scheduler contacts were going through.

It is entirely possible to view task pages of hosts that only have a few tasks, so the statement of 'Yep, and trying to view tasks just isn't possible. Page just won't load.' isn't true,
they are just slow to very slow, I can view my i5-3210M's task pages and the T8100's task pages without too much problem, the i7-2600K's task pages can be viewed too, But it takes a long time to load.

Going to my Account page, and clicking on tasks there- the page won't load. Going to each machine & trying to view tasks there, they will load- after 2-3 minutes of waiting.

It's borked again.

Probably Carolyn's database, or Carolyn is under extreme pressure,

Looking at a result of a task is very fast, that's likely off Oscar (or is it the other way around?):

Hi Folks,
Had several failures to connect, and as many no tasks available for CPU and GPU..
Status page shows servers functioning, but no new tasks created if I read it aright..

So summats up again:-/ Weekend/Halloween blues?

Regards,

Cliff,
Been there, Done that, Still no damm T shirt!

Looks like they got the server problem fixed. Now if only there was work.

It looks like yesterday & today when the server went a bit wonky, fora, & other pages loaded slowly lines up with the time the stats were generated.

Are all of the results that have not been assimilated & purged bogging down the server? Perhaps there is some kind of odd fall out from the most recent hard crash?

It looks like there is plenty of work ready to go, the Scheduler just isn't handing it out.


APv6 WUs appear to be hanging around as well.
2,500 in progress, but with only 21 per hour being returned it's going to take a while to clear those.
Also there are 144,000 waiting for validation, and 40,000 waiting for assimilation.

I've got completed and validated going back to the 3rd of October, something somewhere is a little stuck.

I have 104 result trying to return. I keep getting the Http internal server error. It almost sounds like a rotating outage to certain areas of the world. I know that's not possible but maybe to certain host id numbers? Are they getting overwhelmed by return results that they need to limit when people send back their results?

Nope, it's just general Scheduler weirdness.
Try setting your clients to No New Tasks, then manually reporting. Often that will work better than the usual report/request for more work.
Even so, the Scheduler is borked- all my Scheduler reports are going through, but no new work is being allocated. Network traffic has dropped way down to only a bit more than nothing.

Thanks Grant,

That got them reported. Wonder what it is causing these issues.

Wonder what it is causing these issues.

A lack of neglect?

I see that we're having database problems again, thankfully I spent most of the morning here cleaning the winter dust bunnies out of both rigs.

Cheers.

Yep the projects knackered.
