I shut down my folding yesrterday to see if the posted WU's would catchup with the total that is showing on my rigs. I'm showing 2 more total WU's on my rigs that what has been posted over the past few days. I haven't a clue as to where they have gone, all the Queue's are empty except for the WU that is currently working and I've had no errors, system crashes or lockup's. I seen delays in posting WU's in the past but nothing like this as they all have been sent and the next one downloaded without issue. This is the first time that this has happened to my in all my years of folding and I haven't a clue as to why...............:( This is not acceptable IMHO.

Yup, they don't showup on any of the folding pages, just in my system logs as being completed.
Regardless of where I look, Stanford is 2 WU's behind. And they lost 2 of the biggest one's I've ever worked on, which totally sucks.

Ouch. That sucks bigtime, sbrehm :( Perhaps since they were such huge projects, there will be a more substantial delay before your stats are properly updated?

I hope that maybe they will catchup sometime in the future, but for some reason I don't think that they will. Both were running for like 4 days and were sen't about the sametime in the morning over the weekend. I really hate losing all those points............:(

Ouch, that really bites. I hope they do somehow get found and posted, but the situation seems really strange. Maybe there's an email or forum you can post an inquiry about them and the Stanford people would have a clue?

That sucks...
Just to double-check, I assume you've made sure the completed results were actually sent in and are not being held on your system due to the server being down? They both got a "results sucessfully sent" reply message? I have heard of some WUs takeing days to show up if they get shuffled to temp servers while the originating server is brought back up, hopefully that is the case with both of these. :(

The system log (folding Log) shows them being sent and there's nothing left in the Queue except for the active project. I could maybe understand a problem if there were some sort of errors or something.
Hopefully they'll showup at some point down the road.

Maybe you had partial projects, where you get some points but not credit for the WU?

Nope, they were all full projects, I log everything in a notebook that my systems run, I trust no one or no thing................;) , I keep records of everything, I guess it comes from working on aircraft for so long.
Anyway, one of them just got posted this evening, 5 days after if was sent in, so it looks like there's still hope for the other one at some place and time..............:)

Yes, I know.
Chances are good that the server it sent the WU to has just not replicated with the others. You will probably get it soon.

Glad to hear one of your projects showed up :) There's probably a good chance that the other project will post now as well... just need a little patience ;)
