I am now not getting any work at all and can't report 4 x completed tasks. I have this error in the event log:
29/04/2025 09:11:47 | Amicable Numbers | Scheduler request to https://sech.me/boinc/Amicable_cgi/cgi failed: HTTP gateway timeout

Got 4 x new tasks but still getting this error with reporting them.
https://sech.me/boinc/Amicable_cgi/cgi failed: HTTP bad gateway

EDIT to add: I guess you are working on the 'Phantom tasks' as I now only have 1.
Apologies for my impatience!

Good morning!

My computer had stopped receiving work units this morning but when I checked here, it was showing that I had 6 tasks.
I managed to get work restarted just by spamming the update button and I now have 4 tasks in progress, as it should be.
But, the site is showing that I have an extra 6 tasks, which I don't have (Phantom tasks!)
The task numbers are: 99541978, 99541954, 99541943, 99541823, 99541818, 99541895.
Site data shows 10 current tasks when I only have 4. Not sure what this means? Happy to do the tasks if they are re-sent!

Best Wishes

Doc

All these tasks have the same amount of work, so the same amount of points. I don't know why your GPU processed them slower - maybe something else was using the GPU?

Thanks for the reply. The longer runtimes happened during the night but nothing else should have been running.
Not to worry - all sorted now and trying 2 x WU's on my 7900XTX - seems to be doing well!

I've noticed the double run time on work units but I'm still getting the same points


The top two in the pic were my normal runtime and points. Now they are like the bottom one with 800+ runtimes. Will these be doubled? I have around 50 with double runtimes and the same points :o(

Current work units have reverted to previous runtimes now. . . .
