Posted 26 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: I'm have almost 1,800 WUs that are Validation Pending! That's a lot of work. Think I might crunch some POEM until it gets back down around 1/2 that. |

Posted 8 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: Thanks Dagorath. I implemented the cmd file you suggested on two systems and we are, once again, fully loaded with WUs to run. |

Posted 8 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: Question: Has anyone taken notice of the fact that the issue of the Download Failed issue seems to have returned? After a day of relatively clean downloads, we're back to seeing about 60% - 80% of them fail again. I've had about 1,000 downloads fail in the last day or so. I don't expect this happens often but I've also had Work Units declared invalid because I processed it but there were 16 or 18 "Error while Downloading" so the WU was dropped due to 20 failures. Examples: http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/workunit.php?wuid=4842346 http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/workunit.php?wuid=4842338 Just a thought, but it might be an idea to clear the database of all those download failures. |

Posted 6 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: :-) well.... the attack of the killer Downloads Failed seems to be over and humanity is once again safe to continue on with its own nefarious deeds! Came in at over 9,600 errors on this! |

Posted 6 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: I hope you guys are on the right track. I've recorded about 8,000 failed downloads myself in the last couple days. This is a little crazy. |

Posted 4 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: I'm not sure if we're supposed to do something about this but I am getting literally hundreds of downloads failed; something over 1,000 in the last day. I've noticed if I got to "Advanced" and "Do Network Communication" that I improve (by a little) the number of successful downloads in a batch but it looks like a mess. So - Bottom line: Is this a problem that's just going to work itself out or should we do something to help? |

Posted 1 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: Sure... thanks for looking at this. The full list should be seen here: http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/results.php?userid=21117&offset=0&show_names=0&state=5&appid= You might notice that, of the 20 Invalids, 11 were for work units sent on 8/21. What I don't understand are these: http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/workunit.php?wuid=5112024 Seven tasks were flagged with a Validate Error; one is inconclusive and another is In Progress. How do you know the 7 are invalid just on the face of them? I thought the system looked for matching results. http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/workunit.php?wuid=4811085 Similar: Six Validate Error, one inconclusive and another In Progress. http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/workunit.php?wuid=5223708 This is Five Validate Error, one inconclusive and another In Progress. The older ones seem to tie out OK. I still don't understand how a completely unadulterated system churns out invalid results but I probably don't even care that much. |

Posted 1 Sep 2013 by Sonoraguy Post: This may be limited to me, but since Asteroids@home went to sse3, I've seen a lot more Invalid Tasks. I think I had 1 for the first 10,000 completed tasks. Now I've got 20 with just over 14,000 completed tasks. BIG jump. I don't overclock. I have 3 computers participating. Two have i7-3770 CPUs @ 3.4 Ghz - and they are the two getting the errors - while the third is an i5 machine and it hasn't had an error (mind you, it doesn't process nearly as many tasks). Any explanations for this? |
