"Why I can't upload my results? Sorry but I can't find a solution"

That is because there is nowhere for the finished tasks to be sent to. There is no solution other than to wait until Asteroid comes online. (assuming you're having issues due to Asteroid downtime) The Admin said he'd be back sunday, but depending on the issue on their side might take a few more days to get it up and running.

On a side note, maybe those who need to have the WU's uploaded quickly due to a close deadline should upload as soon as the server is ready, but if you have a pileup of WU's to be uploaded and can wait up to a week, I think it would help prevent overwhelming the server by doing so. That's why my completed WU's are waiting for me to manually indicate that they should begin uploading. After all, they're not due for another 12 days.

Love to everyone

I have 36WU's ready to be uploaded. I just suspended Asteroids for now, and asked for no new work. When the WU's are uploaded I will go back to crunching numbers for asteroid. For now though, I just crunch another program. (Milkyway@home, Seti ETC) The real reason I'm posting is to say I'm amazed at the patience everyone is showing when these things kind of do happen. For the ones that aren't so patient, I can only say this.

Having worked in Global IT Infrastructure I can say that keeping any complex hardware/software system running 24/7/365 requires a HUGE budget and a TEAM of people. Very, Very challenging to do alone, and on college budgets. not at all surprised the admin took a vacation :)

750,000 points for Asteroids, can't wait to get my first million!!!

Love to everyone.
