Receiving the following errors from OS X 6.13.10 client:

"Upload certificates" are a mechanism that keeps bad guys from DoS'ing your upload servers (note: such an attack has never happened, as far as I know).

We're changing the format of upload certificates, and we're starting to test a version of the client for which old-format certificates won't work. Volunteers testers won't be able to upload completed jobs, and they may complain to you.

I suggest that all projects disable upload certificates. To do so, add the following to your config.xml file:

<dont_generate_upload_certificates/>
<ignore_upload_certificates/>

To resume using upload certificates, if you wish:

1) upgrade to the current server source code (from trunk)
2) wait for all jobs with old-format certificates to be dispatched
3) re-enable certificates by removing the above lines.

Let me know if any questions.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Dear volunteers,

There was some incompatible issue between the new client 6.13.x versions and our server version. But we have applied a patch to our server and made some tests to make sure that the jobs from new client versions are successfully returned. And we may consider updating our server version in December or January when our project developers don't have classes and can devote full time. Sorry for the inconvenience it brought!

Please let us know if you still have this type of errors. Thanks for reporting the errors to us so quickly! We really appreciate it!

D@H group.
