I recently signed up for Rosetta@home and got my first work unit yesterday. Everything downloaded fine except for the rosetta application itself. I keep getting the following error message:
31/10/2005 4:54:28 PM|rosetta@home|Temporarily failed download of rosetta_4.78_windows_intelx86.exe: error 500

I looked it up in the boinc wiki and found that it's a server error (A download failue after a Project was Off-Line a period of time to do maintainance, in this case we have a server error (500)). However, no matter how many times I reattach or reset the project, every time I try to download the application I get the same error. When I look at the server status page for rosetta, everything seems fine. Any suggestions?

Check your firewall and proxy if you use one.

I have Zonealarm Security Suite and no proxies. I tried turning off the firewall completely but the same error persists. I'd also like to mention that I didn't have this problem with any other projects I've ever connected to, although I haven't connected to any new ones since BOINC 5+. Perhaps it's a bug in the client? (I'm using BOINC 5.2.6)

The problem was fixed in a thread in the Number Crunching Message Board. Thanks for your help though https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=259
