The new fan arrived to replace my broken/noisy graphics card fan, so I installed it first thing in the morning. I ended up getting a Zerotherm fan per suggestions in an earlier thread. It's great, but I didn't realize how damn big it was, and my desktop is a tiny little Shuttle. Long story short it worked, but I had to move a bunch of cables out of the way that were brushing up against the fan spindles, and one of the flanges on the heat pipe is pressed up against part of the case and slightly bent. I swear if it ended up not working I would have sold all my post-1900 technology and moved into the woods. But as it stands it's super quiet and now that my desktop doesn't sound like a helicopter my blood pressure is returning to normal levels.

The db_dump process (which updates all the stats for third-party pages) has been failing for the past week now. I thought this was due to some configuration on the replica that's timing out the long queries. I pointed the process at the master database this morning, but this timed out, too. So we decided to run the process directly on the replica server itself (jocelyn). So I recompiled it, then ran into NFS lock issues which Eric and I cleared up. It's running now. Let's see if it keeps running and actually generates useful output. Looks good so far (at the time of writing).

[Edit: Nope. Didn't work - will trying again tomorrow...]

Meanwhile, while sending out e-mails to long lost users who never were able to get SETI@home working I found that php broke for some reason on the system sending out the mails. I had to reinstall php/libxml which was annoying, especially as I'm still not sure why. Nevertheless, this fixed the problem, but then froze a few apache instances around our lab (which choked on php changing underneath it). So one of the public web servers was off line for a minute or two this morning. Oy.

Well SETI exported today and it crashed BOINCStats. Willy said there is no corruption of stats and he's going to check out the problem tonight to maybe re-run stats.

Because BOINCStats is being all hammered again (I really hope they reach their donation amount and get that upgrade soon), I added 2 more stats sites to my sig. What? It's not an addiction, I can quit any time I want.

Update: <cough>3more</cough>

Update again: <cough>moremoremore</cough>
