In the online task list, the task is marked as ‘Error’. If I look at the details, the task is ‘Canceled by the server’. Why is the server doing this? Thanks in advance.

However, it would be good if they did award Credit for the work that was done before it was aborted by the project. Grant Darwin NT ID: 95177 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
