New FAH software stopped on core download

Post by bruce »

Please give us the details of your continuing problem, including the first couple of pages of your log and including a segment with the first error messages.

Have you added an exception to your security software allowing FAHClient.exe to download from the internet? (Windows firewall or Norton AV or whatever else you might use)

Are you connecting from behind a proxy server? (Not common at home, but perhaps at a place of business.)

I think my ISP may be using a proxy server, though I'm not 100% sure about it. It's Singtel, a Singaporean ISP. I'm connecting from home, and I did not set up a proxy server personally. I've folded 311 WU on older versions before this happened.

Need help, stuck at Update_core?

Post by AshleyJ14 »

Hello! :D I am new to this forum. A couple days ago my CPUs we're working fine and now none of them are running. In the F@H Log it says "failed reading core package header." I have an i3-7100U. All help is appreciated. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the client, but it still does not work. Thanks
Edit: I am not on a proxy. Not sure tho. I have the box unchexed for proxy configuration

Re: FAH stopped on core download

Post by RAF_Moz_work »

I have the same problem on over 20 machines for the last few days. Nothing changed on my end.

Edit: My browser downloads a file from this uri: http://cores.foldingathome.org/Win32/AM ... ore_a7.fah

Re: FAH stopped on core download

Post by bollix47 »

This appears to be occurring with all non-standard installations.

Basically what is needed is a new core tree in your Work Directory.

A possible workaround until the automatic process is fixed:

There should be a tree in your work folder's sub directory called cores that looks like:

\fahwebx.stanford.edu\cores\Win32\AMD64\AVX\Core_a7.fah/FahCore_a7.exe

The new structure looks like:

\cores.foldingathome.org\Win32\AMD64\AVX\Core_a7.fah\FahCore_a7.exe

The new structure may already be in your working directory but without FahCore_a7.exe. Otherwise you would have to create the new structure.

Either way once you have the new structure under your working directory\cores you may be able to simply copy FahCore_a7.exe to the new tree under Core_a7.fah and restart folding. (mine also shows a file called libfftw3f-3.dll with the same date and time as FahCore_a7.exe so if you have that, copy it too)

Disclaimer: I had no problems with getting the core because my installs are default ... so no guarantees that the above will work and using my method is at your own risk.

Disclaimer: I had no problems with getting the core because my installs are default ... so no guarantees that the above will work and using my method is at your own risk.
I noticed that the cores folder was missing from my AppData folder, so I created four folders:

(I created the first two as I reviewed my old install on my laptop that doesn't work, but still has the fahx.standord.edu folders)
..\FAHClient\cores\cores.foldingathome.org\cores\Win32\AMD64\AVX\Core_a7.fah
..\FAHClient\cores\cores.foldingathome.org\cores\Win32\AMD64\NVIDIA\Fermi\Core_21.fah
..\FAHClient\cores\cores.foldingathome.org\Win32\AMD64\AVX\Core_a7.fah
..\FAHClient\cores\cores.foldingathome.org\Win32\AMD64\NVIDIA\Fermi\Core_21.fah

Creating all four subfolders manually did not solve the issue.

@OntosChalmer

Did you copy the file(s) from the old tree to the new one? It's not just a matter of creating the new tree, you need to copy the .exe and any .dll from the old structure to the new one.

Also, where was your old Data Directory? If it was under AppData\FAHClient and was working previously then there would have to have been a cores sub directory.

I ended up copying the executables (and DLLs) from my old laptop installation into the new folders. The old laptop installation isn't working, but didn't have its AppData cleared out yet.

Sadly, this hasn't fixed the issue as of now.

There may be some security problem involved with using the new structure. i.e. The cores in the old location had already been allowed thru but the ones in the new location have not.

Another option would be to backup your config.xml file and completely uninstall Folding@home including Data and then reinstall without changing any defaults (other than your name, passkey & team #). Again, I've had no need to try that so I can't guarantee it will work.

This didn't work either. Thanks for the effort, though.

Just to ensure the download/unpack routines still worked for me I decided to start a CPU slot on a heretofore GPU only Windows setup:

Code: Select all

13:51:55:WU01:FS01:Downloading core from http://cores.foldingathome.org/Win32/AMD64/AVX/Core_a7.fah

13:51:57:WU01:FS01:Starting
As you can see the core downloaded and unpacked just fine, as it has for most people. Do you have some special security software or maybe a significant setting in the windows-supplied security software? I'm running out of ideas but it has to be something on your setup (one possibility is a permission problem) that most of us don't have or possibly something that's missing on your setup. Does the windows user you're using to fold have Admin rights? That probably isn't necessary but I will keep trying to narrow down the exact cause. :?

I'll be sodding damned.

I tried a different solution. My desktop had wireless functionality, so I decided, on a hunch, to tether my phone's 4G connection to my desktop.

Code: Select all

17:16:20:WU00:FS00:Downloading core from http://cores.foldingathome.org/Win32/AMD64/AVX/Core_a7.fah

17:16:25:WU01:FS01:Starting
One possible issue is that I am using Cloudflare's DNS (1.1.1.1) and Google DNS (8.8.8.8) as my DNS servers. I didn't do that on my phone. I don't believe that it may be the issue, but it's the only difference I know. My phone uses the same ISP as my home internet, so it's probably not a proxy server issue.

Once this set of WUs finish, I'll make a note if future WUs have issues. For now, it's fixed, but I think I'll KIV it.

I don't know anything about 1.1.1.1. It could be they're not up-to-date with the new addesses but in case it helps I use 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and have not had a DNS problem.

It looks like you've solved or are close to solving your problem ... thanks for letting us know.

Hopefully this may help some of the others.

Re: FAH stopped on core download

Post by bruce »

So you guys are saying there's a potential problem with one or more DNS servers. At least that's an unexplored possibility.

How about doing a tracert cores.foldingathome.org (or "traceroute ..." from Linux or MacOS) from a machine that is failing. In my case, it successfully ends at 65.254.110.241 (after 17 hops).

-----------

In a previous discussion of the same issue, we asked folks to open the full path to a FAHcore.exe in their browser and they were able to download the file. Nevertheless, one report said:
Tried downloading http://cores.foldingathome.org/Win32/AM ... ore_21.fah in my browser and it does download it. But the FAH client won't.
The only reason that a browser can download a file and some other .exe cannot is because known browsers are granted an automatic exception through the firewall. Since FAHClient.exe is BLOCKED from downloading the same file is that it's not on their exception list. FAHClient.exe works just like a browser and needs the same internet permissions as a browser but the people who provide firewalls don't know that. You have to do it yourself.

An update. Further WUs have downloaded and been executed successfully. The issue, for me, seems to be fixed. At least until there's another core update.

I tried doing a tracert using both 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8. No issues with either tracert to cores.foldingathome.org. Strange.
