Re: Unable to download new WU
Verbosity = 3 is the default setting. Use that one.

Re: Unable to download new WU
Had a GPU slot log that looked like this for hours and hours:
(No extra settings anywhere, just default stuff you get when doing a clean install. No preference regarding projects/type of work units, and so on.)
Then I came here, looking for help, and it seems other people have been having the same problems. I set "client-type" "advanced" in the client settings, re-started FaH, and it immediately fetched a new work unit for me. Weird.
Anyway, where can I read up on what client-type advanced and max-packet-size big really do? Can I enter both at once? Should I, is there a point to it or is it even bad?
Thanks for assistance.

Re: Unable to download new WU
It's in the read-mes somewhere -- try this
max-packet-size=big and client-type=advanced will work together.
Advanced will give you slightly less well tested projects, with a slightly higher risk of failures. That should be the only downside.

Removing the verbosity setting will reset it to the default, which is 3.kwerboom wrote:@bruce Verbosity goes 1-5. I set it to 5 for maximum information when I installed the 7.1.38 beta.

I've never found anything useful at higher values.

Maybe I'm imagining things, but the fans of my R9 390X seems to roar louder after switching to client-type advanced... Maybe it's actually working harder, folding these WUs?
Re: Unable to download new WU
It's probably working harder, but every project is a little different. It's not a direct function of "advanced" although that will often give you different projects.

I did what you recommended with max-packet-size and client-type and my F@H started working again when I restarted. Thank you.davidcoton wrote:It's in the read-mes somewhere -- try this

Re: Unable to download new WU
Setting client-type value advanced in the expert tab solved the issue for me.
Re: Unable to download new WU
Looks like the 9201s are being accepted without rejection now. I let one slot complete, and the server accepted. Thank for letting all of us know, Stanford....
Re: Unable to download new WU
150+ Windows 6.34 SMP clients using -smp - forceasm and accepting big packets. I set one to verbose mode and snipped some of the log.
Same thing happened in October and took weeks to return to normal. All of these i5's are having issues getting work again, such that production is around 1/6th of what it is normally (1.7M PPD down to 300K PPD). I have no problem opening http://assign.standford.edu:8080 or http://assign.standford.edu:80 in a browser.

Re: Unable to download new WU
Only a few of the work servers still support the older v6 client, and the WU availability will continue to decline for v6.
Most servers require V7.29 or above. Please consider an upgrade to the latest V7.4.4 client.

The projects on the server mentioned in toTow's post (128.252.203.2) support 1-4, 6, or 8 cores. You may need to run 2 slots with half the cores.
