Me too, here daily (recently) and having to re-login, count me in as wishing for longer timeout.

Will Macs be able to join the party any time soon? Anything we could do to help bring that about?

Even with the latest version, charmm (with screensaver) is still crashing instantly on my Mac. Here's a sample task result.

Running charmm manually exits immediately because there's no input data -- if someone would point me at an init file so I can try to see what's going wrong I'd appreciate it.

Or at least respond... am I the only one having problems with a Mac running Charmm??

Here's a sample. My windows hosts are doing OK. The Mac is an Intel running current Leopard OS, and it does fine on other projects. I've reported this before but had no response ... please advise. I've set it to NNW for now.

As far as Power PC architecture goes, we will no longer be supporting that architecture. We don't have a power pc in our lab and haven't been able to get one. It's getting harder and harder to find those machines.

Anyone have any suggestions as far getting a power pc binary?


I'm new to Macs but the current version of OS/X includes tools allowing cross-compiling for the ppc. I created intel and ppc binaries used by another project using my Mac-intel laptop

...the same one that bus-errors on all current Docking work :-(

I just got a bunch on the Mac and they still all fail instantly. I've seen that some others recently crunched successfully on their Macs and would appreciate any ideas. Stack trace etc. is reported on the failing tasks. This is the host's tasks page.

David Ball, are you using boinc view? Another volunteer noticed that detaching and reattaching through it didn't work.

"Detaching worked. Re-attaching did not work via BoincView ... for some reason it couldn't see that I had a host that was no longer attached. However when I went over to the box and used the boinc client to re-attach locally, it worked."



Just FYI, I think that is a BoincView problem as it only happens on one box out of my 4, and I've now confirmed it fails on that host repeatedly. Well, it still seems weird that I can use BV to detach/attach that box to other projects, but even so this BV behavior seems either irrelevant or lowest possible priority for Docking. Especially as I'm not sure BV is maintained any more.
