I have two of these. They have now been in upload status for 67 hours both. The removal of partly uploaded files does not seem to work. They both have uploaded about 0.5 % and never proceed above that. These two are the only ones that I have currently with upload or download problems. Here's the log:

I have now two new tasks (now Atlas tasks) locked by file_upload_handler PID=-1. They are on an other host than the two I reported on Friday.

Tasks are here: https://www.cpdn.org/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=20921445 and here: https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=173295916

THANKS
I have 32 cores running these and the problem just started for me 2 hours ago and I sure hope that problem doesn't happen again where lots of complete tasks turn into nothing and just get aborted.

DUH! I don't know how I managed to f*ck that up. Anyway more LHC tasks are on upload queue. Downloads seem to be coming thru better but not all on one go.

Now the one I reported as stuck earlier have timed out and shows up as error in my account because the server locked it with just over half a percent uploaded... :-(

Please fix this locking issue on server side before lots of more tasks error out because of this and have to be sent out again!

Upload is being retried automatically every five minutes by BoincTasks. Both tasks will expire later today. The crunch time for both was below 10 seconds so aborting the uploads would not be any major loss.

My assumption would be that the upload problems with Sixtrack have to do with these many tasks in the mills.

From what I just saw, there are about 1,700 unsent ATLAS tasks - so we might end up with the same problems which came up a month ago.

Every time I have tried ATLAS recently, I have gotten burned. But since they now have a full crew back at CERN, I am trying again. I have one VirtualBox machine that does only CMS, LCHb and Theory. They work fine, with no upload issues. And any problems on ATLAS or Theory do not affect them. Yesterday I started a second machine without VirtualBox, set to receive only ATLAS (native) and Sixtrack. So far, so good. But we will see how long LHC can keep the servers running properly.
EDIT: One ATLAS is stuck in download, and two SixTrack are stuck in upload. But I have enough work to keep going.

We obviously hit the limit of the current infrastructure with 10k ATLAS and 200k Sixtrack tasks. The NFS server is ok, but the upload-download servers are struggling,

Sorry about this, please be patient (again). :-(

one of my finished ATLAS tasks has unsuccessfully been trying to get uploaded since yesterday.
It always shows "locked by upload handler ... transient upload error", regardless of how often (for sure several hundred times) I push the "retry now" button.
Obviously this tool which was said to be run every 6 hours in order to delete partly uploaded files is not doing it's job.

I am questioning what sense it makes to permanently fill the "unsent" queue with new ATLAS tasks as long as these severe transfer problems exist.

Hi!

I'm not sure if I have understood this issue correctly:

Those "partly uploaded file", are they on my machine or on the server?

Do I need to take any actions, or is the problem going to solve itself when the servers are less busy?

I currently have half a dozen or so tasks that are stuck in uploading state, and they represent
together several days of hard computing so I'd hate to have to abort them! :-(

As I can see on the server stat page, there are several thousands of items in the tasks and WU's
"waiting for deletion" queues, and a whopping 768973 tasks to send!! :-O

Will this issue be solved by itself once they are crunched and validated?
(hopefully before the deadlines expires)

Kindest regards,
Gunnar

There is nothing you can do than waiting and hoping that the tasks will be uploaded before the expiration date.

This answer needs clarification. Most tasks have a chance of being returned and validated with credit even after the deadline has passed. The first (or first two, depending on the quorum) results to be *returned* will receive credit, regardless of deadline.

Therefore the answer should be that nothing can be done other than hoping they will upload before the minimum quorum has been reached.
