Folding Forum

Due to high spam counts and DOS attacks from some sites in Russia, it is possible your IP is in a range that has been blocked. I have not received confirmation of this... Yes, it seems to be true. Either my IP is blacklisted or our russian authorities are blocking access to the work servers (less p...

For about 3 days, my F@H client can't connect to work servers to receive a new work unit. The log is filled with records like the following : ======= 07:45:03:WU00:FS00:Connecting to assign1.foldingathome.org:80 07:45:04:WU00:FS00:Assigned to work server 129.32.209.202 07:45:05:WU00:FS00:Requesting ...

My internet connection is quite reliable by itself, nevertheless it might be just the bug you mentioned. My OS has a feature (an annoyance I could not get rid of) -- it can't connect to the internet for a couple of minutes after being restarted, and all the applications being started think there's n...

First thing I would check is start a browser and verify that you can actually reach the 129.32.209.201 server Yes, I can. It's not a network Issue. If you do close the client process from advanced control I couldn't find a way to do so, I've killed it from the task manager, than restarted it, but i...

When attempting to download the next WU, the client sticks, displaying the following messages in the log: ========= 14:58:35:WU00:FS00:Connecting to assign2.foldingathome.org:80 14:58:36:WU00:FS00:Assigned to work server 129.32.209.201 14:58:36:WU00:FS00:Requesting new work unit for slot 00: READY c...

"Anyway it is not a giant job to remove old installation and reinstall"
You're right, of course, but right now I have an urgent work to do. I'll try a little later

Thanks for the prompt response!
Deleting the folder 00 has helped.
Regarding the latest version, I just don't know how to update it without completely removing and reinstalling the client.

I've been successfully folding 24/7 since 31.03.20, but yesterday the client suddenly crashed and then went into a loop, every its attempt to restart was immediately followed by the same crash. I could not continue folding and had to stop the client. The log says the following: 18:21:00:WU00:FS00:0x...

OK, thanks.

I have the same question. I have installed the FAH client more than a week ago (2020.03.31), it has been working 24/7 since then, and it has completed and successfully uploaded tens of WUs, yet https://stats.foldingathome.org/donors shows nothing for me. https://apps.foldingathome.org/cpu shows &quo...

You must be right. Seems like the reason was a zombie, it didn't come to my head to check it beforehand. When I was uninstalling it, a zombie FAHClient was running and hindered in uninstalling, I had to kill it manually

Yes, I run a firewall, but its rules are configured to enable the FAH's traffic. And everything was fine until recently.
Now I've reinstalled the client, and it's working so far. Still I don't know what was the matter and how to avoid such issues from now on

A couple of days ago I've installed the client from the fah-installer_7.5.1_x86.exe. Until recently, it had been working fine. But today I've tried to restart it and it's refused to start properly. When I start FAHControl.exe it shows Client: Local UPDATING inactive and do nothing more, and most of ...

I got it, thank you!

Yet I can't comprehend the situation with the client. After restarting, it had downloaded and processed successfully a few WUs, and then it stopped again. It unsuccessfully tried to get an assignment several times, then seems like gave it up and had been standing idle for several hours or half a day...
