WU update: An error occurred while sending the request

Topics about the Beta trials up to Build 3043, the last build by Cumulus's founder Steve Loft. It was by this time way out of Beta but Steve wanted to keep it that way until he made a decision on his and Cumulus's future.

WU update: An error occurred while sending the request

Post by BigOkie »

I've searched the forum on this, and I see that it happens when people lose connection to WU. However, on many occasions, I get this message and it appears I'm still updating WU (I use rapidfire). The only thing it appears to do is continue these entries until I restart CMX. My latest log entry was about 19mb over a three week run.

LIkely because it logs this every few seconds (probably because it's on rapidfire).

Has anyone seen anything like this and is there a way to keep it from happening without a reset? Not a huge issue, just surprises me when I see a log as large as that.

Thanks to all.

I would expect that if the system is returning an error, then it hasn't been able to send the request, but that apparently isn't the case. I don't know why restarting Cumulus should cause the problem to go away - perhaps something to do with the messages apparently being spurious.
