I've got a P4 1.6GHz currently at 48% after 3h50 so I'm guessing about 8.5-9 hours for completion.

I know this has been reported somewhere else but thought it might be worth highlighting.

Just attached a brand new machine and got the following stack of 'unrecoverable error's and 'file not found's:

Message boards : Number crunching : Bug reports for charmm 5.01

Posted 3982 days ago by Profile MacDitch
I detached and re-attached to the project, and since then all my downloads fail :(

See http://docking.utep.edu/result.php?resultid=6478

In each case I get an error like

<core_client_version>5.2.13</core_client_version>
<message>WU download error: couldn't get input files:
<file_xfer_error>
<file_name>grid_probes.rtf</file_name>
<error_code>-163</error_code>
<error_message>file was not found on server</error_message>
</file_xfer_error>

</message>



I don't know if it'll necessarily fix anything but you are using a very old version of boinc. Current is 5.4.11 with 5.6.3 (I think) in development.

Has there been any word from the project about what to do with the excessive units?

Ignoring all other issues, I have ~50 wu's that will not finish this side of the deadline. Do I crunch them anyway or bin them?

Forgive my ignorance, but do I need to abort the unstarted 5.01 wu's and get 5.02's instead?

I temporarily suspended it all last night when I left for the evening so I still have ~60 pending...


Not abort! Before you do this, make a copy of your boinc folder to another place!

1. You must exit boinc
2. http://docking.utep.edu/download/charmm_5.2_windows_intelx86 for download
3. Replace the old charm_5.1_windows_intelx86 with the newer one
4. Start Boinc, thats all

I have not been tested this yet, but it must be work.



Step 3. Do you mean re-name the downloaded file and replace? This seems to be the only way to get things to run but it does mean that it will report as having used the wrong version...

Especially when the thread has been stretched as in the "Bug reports for charmm 5.01" thread...

Message boards : Windows : CPU Usage

( Message 57 )
Posted 3983 days ago by Profile MacDitch
I have to assume this is related as I've never seen it before! Every ten seconds or so the boinc.exe task is grabbing 20-40% of the CPU, but only for a second or two.

Can anyone explain this?


Yes, here



I did think of that, but my preferences are to write to disk no more than every 300 seconds. So is the application ignoring this option, or is it part of the 'lot of debug info written to the logs' that needs removing?
