I have updated to the latest client followed Xililxons guides and it is borked . I have been a beta tester here for a few years and never encountered a worse client release. the project folks post less here than on the old forums and the poor admins and mods are left to cope, step up to the plate Stanford this is your baby and my money going down the drain. :evil:

I have got the same long interactions on this wu, 13 times today. i have tried to run qfix and sendall but they just open and close immediately. I have deleted queue and work folder and unitinfo and still get 2665 r3 c446 g42. whats up with that?

this is using 6.22 beta2r3. i havent had time to do the 6.23 yet as i am busy remodeling our bathroom.
can i delete both of the fahcore a1 folders? or do i need to do the 6.23? or?

We would recommend upgrading to 6.23 as this is most likely to fix the problem.

I upgraded to 6.23, rebooted and started the smp again. AGAIN I got p2665 r3 c446 g42, killed it and started again, same wu!

killed it again and deleted work,queue and unit info, restarted and finally got a different wu, a p4100 this time. i have only gotten 2665 wu for a long time.
restarted smp succesfully. it has completed 2% so far, but...........

looking at task manager I see one FaHCore_81 instead of the four a1 that i am used to seeing.

this core81 is using 50% cpu cycles. and my gpu folding (core 11) witch use to only show a few percentage cpu usage occasionally now is using 25 to35%. system idle process is now showing as using between 15 to 25% usage whereas it used to be mostly zero. total cpu usage is listed between72 and 84%. even when the task manager shows core81 and core 11 and system idle add up to 100%.
i have a feeling something is not right. ?

edit to add: i used to have a task manager/processes entry called something like " mipich" , i had trouble with duplicates of that a long time ago when i first started smp folding, now it is not listed even once.
also this is a dual core w/8800gt gpu rig running XP pro.

I think you didn't start with the -smp flag, and you got a uniprocessor WU.

i did make the -smp flag shortcut and it shows as such when i right click the shortcut icon properties. i guess i will kill this and start again, and maybe redo the flag.
the flag is: (space)-smp, correct?
thanks toTow, i'll let you know how it goes.

i got it!!
i restarted the smp and it went right back to the 4100wu where it left off.
the f@h window showed the -smp argument but in the folding program file folder the core 81 file was still there. I deleted that and work and queue and unitinfo and restarted correctly. this time a 2653 wu, if i never see a 2665 i will be happy , i have completed 30 something of them and lost just about as many.
thanks again toTOW. :D

This work unit is still out there and still BORKED.

It still does this when started:

[18:28:29] Entering M.D.

[18:28:46] Completed 0 out of 250000 steps (0 percent)
[18:28:53] Warning: long 1-4 interactions

And then just sits there. Qfix does nothing because at 0% there is nothing to fix. This is XP Pro on a Q9300 system. Stock clocked. It is the new 6.23Beta client - So much for that fix.

If it helps anyone - the way I got my system to move on and not keep getting the same WU was to go into Task manager as this faulty WU sat doing nothing, and end the process of one of the a1 cores. It crashed the client and got me a different WU.
Hope this helps someone.

Not sure if following (as i understand it) any use for your Qfix probs;

1) You might need the latest version (of Qfix) to work with V6 clients - see half way down following linked page;

http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f ... a&start=60


2)The very least Qfix should do (eg if WU fails at start/0%) is stop you getting the same problem WU repeatedly. I couldn't get it to work until i realized you have to DELETE (just) the 'queue slot' (number =) xx you can see on the log (just after a start ) which the problem WU is in BEFORE you use Qfix (unless the client has already deleted that, itself) NB Another quirk is the client will say its failed to carry out the (flag) "-delete xx" ( as before xx is the queue slot number the WU being folded is in) but in reality it HAS been deleted.

If you run Qfix AFTER this DELETION it should detect an ERROR (unlike without out the previous deletion) , rebuild (fix) the queue that you just deleted and upload/send whatever partial WU as finished to the server so it will bring you a totally new unit to fold.

The following link concerns Linux (so ignore the Linux specific commands etc) and a hanging client but the info about Qfix i found helped clarify things with EUE + using Qfix.
