Folding Forum

There was a thread where people were complaining about not getting credit for those WU's. This might be the reason why.

No one called you stupid. People would tell you what to do and you did dismiss their suggestions on occasions. An example was running it as administrator and you replied with that you are the only user. Where you place something in Vista/7 does require elevated access, even if you are administrator....

The reason is that I didn't expect it to last that long: http://folding.typepad.com/news/2010/01 ... pport.html This is even NEWER . http://en.fah-addict.net/news/news-0-228+new-uniprocessor-projects-2968-2969-2972-and-2973.php Xuhui Huang has just released four new uniprocessor projects: 2968, 296...

...But they still are handing out WU's though!!!! Now that is strange :e?: Why? The client is not being actively being supported, but there are still projects that can use it. It all depends on the project owner and what core needs to be used. Amber is a no on the PPC but other projects are a go.

Yes, that is correct. Also when the Client is uploading the data, you navigate to the installation folder and go to Work folder and there you will see wuresult_XX so you can check out its size. The time take to upload the wuresult depends on the size and upload speed. What is yours? For me, it take...

The console shows it. I highlighted the important bits. The code tag doesn't support the bold. Example: [13:33:55] Completed 500000 out of 500000 steps (100%) [13:33:56] DynamicWrapper: Finished Work Unit: sleep=10000 [13:34:06] [13:34:06] Finished Work Unit: [13:34:06] - Reading up to 3698352 from ...

BTW PPC is not longer supported by F@H.

Very normal especially if you are using the SMP client. You can expect your uploads to be at least 50 MB in size with some averaging even larger than this. The SMP results are in various sizes. The smallest is ~4MB, then ~20MB, ~43MB, ~63MB and then over 100MB. Currently the majority of the WU resu...

Thanks. I'll remind you in a week if you want to see of it has been returned by anyone else.

Last time I checked, Macs are only capable of folding SMP WUs. There isn't a Classic Client or WUs for Mac. @lanbrown: Can you please tell me where you came across -smp 1 because I was informed by a well known user that -smp 1 isn't a valid argument (and that is correct). From my personal experimen...

MTM, He does have a Mac and I'm assuming he is running the OS X client which has been SMP for awhile. The classic client is no good for him (PPC client that would run under Rosetta) and I believe even it was SMP enabled. He needs to use the current client and -smp 1 will make sure that only one core...

Once the preferred deadline is past, the WU is reissued to someone else. You will still get credit for it as long as it is returned before the final deadline. If you are consistently not meeting the preferred deadline, then you really should look at the client settings. Chances are, you are doing SM...

It still doesn't fix the single sever for WU issues. Same issue in the past few weeks.

Bad WU? [22:55:10] Completed 200000 out of 250000 steps (80%) [23:25:55] Writing local files [23:25:55] Completed 202500 out of 250000 steps (81%) [23:34:22] Gromacs cannot continue further.

They need to work on the second PS3 server so that when the primary is down, there are WU's to be worked on. Right now there is only one server that is available and able to assign WU's. That is absurd as there is absolutely no redundancy and we have had two outages that rendered every PS3 that was ...
