Cosmology@home is back online!
After almost three days of wondering what was happening with my Cosmology@home WU's they have put out a statement and everything seems to be running smoothly again:
"Hi all. As you might have noticed, cosmologyathome.org was unreachable for the last ~2.5 days. This was due to a failure properly reregistering our domain name after moving the server from one university to another earlier this year. In addition, as we couldn't contact you via the website, we tried to send out email notification of the issue, but due to a problem with the server software many of you did not receive this email. We'll work on addressing this so in the future it doesn't happen again. All should be back to normal now, although it may take as long as another 24 hours for the domain to fully propagate everywhere. We greatly apologize for this extended down time."
My piled up tasks have all uploaded (successfully I hope) and things seem to be running smoothly again. Seems to have been an IT department SNAFU...
tl;dr All the FUD telling people to panic and stop crunching Cosmology@Home was, once again, utterly unfounded.
Thanks for the update @rahvin84. This is the kind of news I like to see.
No worries. Keep calm and carry on crunching!
Great info thanks alot @rahvin84
Cosmology is still on the whitelist or should we wait for the next superblock?
The gridcoin.us website still shows Cosmology as being on the whitelist. My WU's seem to be uploading fine and Mag is increasing so I think everything is fine again. I don't know too much about the superblock and whether this would have affected it. Perhaps @dutch can shed some light?
