I haven't been able to do transfers for about a week now, and the messages tab shows "Project file upload handler is missing" for both of the affected projects.

My other computer is unaffected.

I have version 6.10.58. Should I try reinstalling?

Which projects and are they otherwise available? (Check their forums, can everyone else upload?)

SETI @Home and climateprediction.net. And as I said, my other computer, working on the same 2 projects, can make transfers just fine. It's clearly local to this box.

I did try un- and re-installing, but with no effect.

You'd better ask at the projects anyway, as the file_upload_handler runs at the project server, on the upload server.

Now, it's possible that the work you have is corrupted. You can do a disk check for that, make sure that BOINC isn't running while you run chkdsk (or similar).

And, it was indeed corrupted work. Chkdsk found them but it took a proper defrag to fix it, and this morning my completed work uploaded hitch-free. Thanks Ageless!
