Some extra things to

Some extra things to try.

If you look in the page source of the project front (home or 'master') page, you can find the full scheduler url embedded in it - that's where the BOINC client gets it from. To save you looking it up, it's hidden on line 218, and the full thing is

http://scheduler.einsteinathome.org/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi

If I paste that into a browser address bar, it redirects to

http://einstein10.aei.uni-hannover.de/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi

and displays

[pre]
611
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/
60.000000
Error in request message: no start tag
Einstein@Home
[/pre]
That message confirms that you've reached an active BOINC server, even if it hasn't been set up as a web server as well.

Also, if you type or paste either of the above versions of the url into a browser (or simply click the links above) and get the scheduler reply, then your DNS is working fine. It gave you an IP address, and that's all it has to do. You can cross that suspect off the list.

A couple of thoughts. that

A couple of thoughts.

that ping - don't -n 1 let run at least 4 in the windows world.

In your boinc client preferences you are not using a HTTP or SOCKS proxy ?

If yes disable if you can.

if you use the url in a a few browsers ... http://scheduler.einsteinathome.org/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi you should see it redirects to a server - i see

http://einstein10.aei.uni-hannover.de/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi

in the address window then an xml file displayed like

[pre]
611
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/
60.000000
Error in request message: no start tag
Einstein@Home
[/pre]

If not then i'd try relaxing some of the internet firewall / browsing restrictions.

good luck.

Thanks Richard. I tried both of them, and both got me the same Scheduler reply text you posted.

And if you really need to get

And if you really need to get deep down and dirty, compare BOINC's log with this successful one (noting that this machine hasn't changed to the new url yet, and still thinks the scheduler is einstein5.aei.uni-hannover.de):

Richard, On my laptop, I

Richard,

On my laptop, I found my existing cc_config.xml file had an http_debug line disabled by a 0 entry, so I changed that to 1, used BoincMgr|Options|Read config files to attempt to activate it, and then did an update.

This gave this result as copied from the Event log:

And at the point, the web

And at the point, the web server decided it needed a breather.

Quick heads up: the BOINC v7.6.9 you're using on that laptop has a neat GUI picker for selecting log options - 'Event Log options...' under Options, or simply Ctrl+Shift+F.

But the effect is the same - it shows what is going wrong, but not why. Your machine is failing at the first hurdle:

11/18/2015 3:00:05 PM | Einstein@Home | [http] [ID#1] Info: Empty reply from server when trying to access the old url

http://einstein5.aei.uni-hannover.de/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi

so you don't even receive the first redirect. Does that link work for you? It does here, and bounces all the way through to einstein10 and displays the scheduler response as before.

Pasting that link into a browser window here also gets immediately twisted 'round to einstein10.aei.uni-hannover.de/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi and displays the Scheduler reply you posted earlier in the thread.

Same result from directly right-clicking your link and choosing open link in new tab.

An interesting conundrum,

An interesting conundrum, then, and probably as far as we can take it tonight. Perhaps Christian can take a look in the morning - he seems to be familiar with both the BOINC code that handles the comms, and the Einstein servers that send the replies if they receive the questions.

One additional detail I not

One additional detail I not noticed until now, plus some timelines

Uploads for work which has finished processing on my hosts are routinely being reported starting and finishing promptly after task completion. So I have about a hundred tasks in the ready to report state, but none hung up in the uploading state.

An old detail, which makes me think it less likely that my own network misadventures of yesterday are the root of my current Einstein problem is that normal reporting and work download continued for over eight hours after I stopped changing my network configuration until the project went down for maintenance. I see in the logs normal project reporting and scheduler interactions to have resumed at the the end of my network fiddling about 5:25 p.m. MST, with scheduler requests beginning shortly after 1:00 a.m. being answered with a Project is temporarily shut down for maintenance message. After that, for somewhat over four hours scheduler requests routinely got the message that the project was down for maintenance, with the project communication failed notation appearing about 5:00 a.m.

Mountain time is UTC-7 at this time of year.

I really don't have a clue

I really don't have a clue about the redirect not coming through, especially since your browser gets it.

Could it be that the 7.6.9 BOINC client was built with a buggy curl lib (or watever the Win client uses instead)?

Would you be willing to risk an update to 7.6.15 which Richard uses?
