I can confirm the bug the OP experiences - not only for latest Win 10, but also for latest Win 11 & it's happening, at least to me, since at least April - if not March - this year.

As far as I can see, It is the same error, I just printed the FAHClient responser not the log.... (...) NMope, there's still a fundamental difference between yours and 03:28:55:WARNING:WU03:FS00:WorkServer connection failed on port 8080 trying 80 03:30:07:ERROR:WU03:FS00:Exception: 10002: Received ...

@superpan: that's _not_ the same error - your client succeeds with upload, but fails to assign PPD credits while our clients already fail to upload...

(...) As I write this, another one is in danger of dumping. :((...) I'd rather "happily" dump one, if only all other ~30 WU would succeed in upload - not to mention all lost PPD.. As stated before: I refuse to accept or understand why it's such a problem to deal with connections - FAH &am...

I do understand that, may I suggest that a change is implemented, allowing to modify a WU's assigned CS on the _server_ (!) side _after_ such problems arose, not directly helping "victims" like me, but other participants who are about to receive this exact WU so that they're not suffering ...

Thanks for the heads-up, but since I'm now over 60 (!) WU not being able to return to one of those two, why's not change to the WU _prior_ to transmission to clients like mine done already? I do understand the issues (Thanks again for your insights!), but I struggle understanding why no interim solu...

It's a pitty to hear that - especially since I thought that hosting it cloud-wise would solve such problems while in reality, it seems to cause even more such problems.. :e?: :lol: Thanks for the detailed insight, though. Very much appreciated. If I can be of any further help towards my WU problems,...

The problem has been fixed for almost everyone. You may be having problems uploading to these servers, but most others are not. I don't think so as any culprit on my end (OS, firewall, router, etc.) was already tested by myself extensively - all work perfectly, it's always the IP & port of the ...

@Bruce: About 4 weeks later, the problem _still_ persists as I've got over 40 WU not being uploaded for days if not weeks. Why is FAH always struggling with this? Almost a year ago, due to the massively increased user base, I understood the reasons. Not so much nowadays, hence my request for a more ...

Thanks for the clarification, PantherX. Regarding (bonus) points, I'll sum it up this way: any lost (bonus) points are probably simply that - lost, i. e. no restore, no compensation later. That's said, but then again we're in this all together and if FAH does its part for finding a cure, I'm still h...

Yet, this doesn't answer both questions I've raised just half a page ago...

First and foremost, the science part: what's the actual official word about dropped work units due to not being submitted in time due to server problems? We're losing valuable scientific data or we're getting a chance of submitting eventually? I mean, we're talking COVID-19 here, guys - the more WUs...

@ Bruce: I'm sorry, but you seem to misunderstand each and every try and therefore I give up on any further explanations. @ PantherX: that's a good point regarding 8/8.1. ;) However, I do notice that within your rebot-log there's no core shutdown-message as before?! I's much like it was in my scenar...

Yes, we do expect the fahclient to shutdown gracefully with windows. It does with XP, but not on anything newer. I have had a bug ticket open about this "Unhandled exception" error a long long time. :( Very sad to hear such a bug still exists. I believe several WUs are dumped just because...

Sure, not an issue at all since if there is a bug, a fix should eventually be released. Thanks a lot! :) Since I manually start FAHClient, in order to mimic your automatically start after log-in, I placed the shortcut in the start-up folder (C:\Users\PantherX\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start...
