Project: 6887 (Run 244, Clone 6, Gen 45) Bad WU ?

[martiou]

Since 15/01/2011 10:14:23, I had this WU 9 times on 1 core of 1 of my PCs.
This WU stopped 8 times at 45% with this message

Code: Select all

[08:17:11] Completed 112500 out of 250000 steps  (45%)
[08:17:37] CoreStatus = 0 (0)
[08:17:37] Client-core communications error: ERROR 0x0
[08:17:37] Deleting current work unit & continuing...

I think the results will be the same for the 9th time (it's mow at 11%).

The 2nd core of this PC has same type of WU (6880 -> 6887) and no problem.
So I don't think there's a hardware problem.

The OS is CentOS 32 bits, the CPU is Pentium D and there are 2048 Mo of memory.

Is this WU a bad WU and what can I do to stop to get it ?

[martiou]

It stopped at 45% for the 9th time.

And I had it 1 more time.

[martiou]

I got it 3 more times with the same result.

I change this client's configuration to try to get another type of WU.

Finally, I stopped to calculate this WU.

I did what explain in this thread for the bad WU :

Delete the Work folder
Delete the queue.dat file
Change the Machine ID to another unique value

This client get a new WU.

I will see if I still have error.

Project: 6887 (Run 244, Clone 6, Gen 45) has been reported as a bad WU.

This WU is actually a bad WU because this client finished 11 WUs without error since I've changed the machine ID.
