Failed reading core package header

Post by Akaanc »

Hello,

My cpu slot stuck with that mag and keepa saying waiting fore fah core update but never updates just stays like that.

I have 24 cores in total and 23 active in the slot. Everything seems fine but it stopped working. Any ideas?

jcoffland just made a change to fix an assignment server issue. This is probably related.

Edit: What operating system is this? In the log file, does it indicate where it's trying to download from?

On 64-bit Windows, I would expect the URL to be http://cores.foldingathome.org/Win32/AM ... ore_a7.fah

I don't see a copy of your log. (See below). How many CPU slots do you have and how many CPUs are allocated to each one?

Pause all WUs using FAHCore_a7. Unpause one of them and let the core finish updating. Then unpause the others. (Once there are two or more slots trying to update the same core, you get a deadlock.)

The same is happening to me. I don't this path is valid. It 404s when you feed it to a browser.

Yes download path for the core gives 404 error.

My other pc stopped working too.

The issue just appears to have resolved itself. My client just downloaded the updated core and has resumed CPU folding. The path is unchanged, so the file must have just been missing.
