I don't know if it relates to this problem : the number of member for team : L'Alliance Francophone isn't correct on stats.
It says : 1 member but there are 5 members listed
http://docking.utep.edu/team_display.php?teamid=10

I suspect a side effect caused by the simple quote (') in the team name ...
Not a critical problem for now ;)

Message boards : Number crunching : Charmm 5.02

In the terminal where you type 'ulimit -s unlimited' also start the boincmgr process. Every terminal that you open will have the setting 8192 again unless you put that command in a file called .bashrc in your home directory. That file can be edited with any GUI editor (doesn't have to be vi ;-)

The other method is editing the file run_manager in your BOINC directory and add the line there:

ulimit -s unlimited
cd "/data/BOINC" && exec ./boincmgr $@

Than use the command run_manager to start boinc.

Hope that makes it a little clearer...

Andre



It works for me ! Thanks again Andre

Sorry, it's beyond my linux skills too :(
I opened a linux "session" (terminal) under root.
Typed : ulimit - s, result is 8192
I changed ulimit to unlimited than restarted boinc.
I Typed again to make sure : ulimit - s, result is "unlimited"
I closed (exit) the session

Same problem...

So, I opened a session
I typed : ulimit -s
Bloody hell ! the value is 8192 again

After many years, Windows made me stupid, I'm affraid :(
My knowledge of linux is very poor, and I'm not sure I want to learn those crazy commands. It's chinese for me...

Good news !

My Mandrake distro said "8192" for ulimit -s.
I changed to "unlimited".

Wait and see ...

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.


I know ;-) But my first 6 work units all went fine. Then I detached and re-attached and the problem started. No idea if the detaching and re-attaching is related to the problem.

It's not a detach/reattach issue. I have the same probleme after attaching Docking on a new machine.
A linux box too (old boinc 5.2.13)
