I wish I had a massive farm of old machines just to devote to random BOINC projects to keep them going.

Ars is not really the powerful team it once was.

I'm getting 'Download Error' on all new WU's on all shrubbers. Confused

Pooh Bear 27 · Posted: Sun Dec 11, 2011 7:22 am Post subject:

Currently, I am generating new workunits for our medical application. It turned out, I was acting a bit careless, because as a consequence many members are getting MD5 download errors now.

The reason is quite simple. During WU generation files are getting copied to the server. Sometimes these files are still existing because we use the some data files for multiple workunits. In these cases we just change the learning parameters or the experiment setup.

Anway, overwriting these existing files leads to problems, because the old and the new file have different MD5 checksums and hence all WUs that are related to the old files error out with an MD5 download error. About 30.000 WUs are affected. I'll take care of it but it might take a while to identify the failing WUs. There is a chance, that the dDM members error out the affected old WUs in the meantime. In that case, the new WUs should work fine.

Lesson learned: Never generate new WUs if you are in a hurry - in the end it takes much more time and causes preventable trouble.

I am sorry for the inconvenience!

Best regards,
Nico

Then a few hours later:
Okay, the MD5 problem should be solved now!

It only happens when you speak the word out loud, has been scientifically proven.

Ars got rocked by some internal issues, we are above them in many projects like SETI.

I am happy to leave lets say 2 of my cores on this project once the PotM is over Very Happy

Have all 6 cores on the project now as my Climate Prediction WU's have completed Smile

Lets push this as hard as we can and retain Numero Uno Yayyyyyyy

Its also brilliant to see so many team members in the top 20...9 at last count with several beating Nico #Scramble

As an aside there are still many things I am not able to do on my PC as Java is still F*****d up Grrrrrrrrr.

Its Principally older stuff that I really enjoy Ergo: Diablo, Thief and games of those Genere first person sneekers and such like. Though there is far more up to date game I play which is affected Assassins Creed all versions.

OK I admit it I am a gamer in the First Degree and love playing games Very Happy

It does annoy me that I have to put my passion for games on hold to run dDM Sad
