Do you run other projects? If so, try suspending them temporarily, then manual update lhc, hopefully receive work, and continue the other project(s) again.

Greetings from Cori

Since the current shortest deadlines are 5 days, you need to ensure you set your connect preference to less than 2.5 days. You also need to ensure you have a decent resource share, typically more than 25%. You also need to ensure you have your computer(s) on more than 12hrs a day for any of this to work.

All up I can't see your computers since you have them hidden.

I hope this helps.

Live long and crunch.
