My "Results for user" page tells that run #26432 ended in an error, but it is possible to view all its associated plots for both temperature and precipitation.
The "all temperatures" plot does not correspond to the 3 corresponding plots, whereas all precipitation plots seem to be consistent.

Also, I remember, that when uploading results, my client tried to connect to server for weeks without success. It ended with something that looked to be a timeout.

So, is this run a lost one?

It's a long time since I've seen an <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=26432">error -131</a> gargulp.

That's one of the first models sent out with version 4.04 of the CPDN software and had the maximum size for the first result file set too low (4.04 added regional means to the file at the request of the scientists). Carl did send out an email with instructions on the edit required to client_state.xml to prevent the problem, but I know that a number of users failed to receive them because someone had managed to get the project on the SpamCop email blacklist at the time.

Although your result is marked as being in error it's only the one result file that's been lost by the project team (and I seem to remember Carl saying the files that are returned are still useful without that one). If you backed up your BOINC directory recently (preferably within the past 2 weeks) it should be possible to force BOINC to upload the missing file with a bit of file merging and editing.

Well I got a error also (<a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=595492">http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=595492</a>)
It seemed to be doing fine. I got the new 4.10 core and it was working fine. :( I now have another unit and hope it works fine!

Edit: Are the posting times messed up here? It says I posted 35 min ago but it hasn't been even 5!

It's drawn comments from early days of "Classic" CPDN. It has been jocularly dismissed as "Oxford" time.
