Automatic Submission Spider for Workers...

Please see this post regarding a problem I've been having recently. It's a combination of submit_spider not catching an error (0 GHz credit assigned by server) and a server-side problem.

Once again I'm having trouble with submit_spider and this time it's not a server timeout issue. I was able to submit the results manually.

Please see http://www.mersenneforum.org/showpos...=754]this post for more details.

Hey Brian et al.

OK, sorry for the delay on this; extremely busy on "Real Work" at the moment...

Two things: first, there was the original bug which resulted in a bad result from Primenet not being correctly detected; this has now been fixed.

Secondly, sometime in the last week or so the Primenet admins changed the submission form from being a "GET" (or "PUT") to being a "POST" form. This broke the submission spider even further.

I have hopefully rectified both issues. Please give version 0.24 of Submission Spider a try, and let me know if you see any additional issues.

I'm running it currently on a couple of EC2 instances, but would appreciate additional testing/feedback.
