It seems to me that this run got to 94%, shut down as it was running on batteries
and got wiped. Is this correct?

What happen to the computer while you where running on battery

What happen to the computer while you where running on battery

Nothing special. IS there a way of checking centrally what happened to this WU?

[toTOW]

No we can't.

But it will help if you post more of the FAHlog ... in your previous one, we don't see if the WU resumed fine or not ...

[silas_the_monk]

This is the relevant portion. Actually I remember now that I when I plugged the computer back in the Folding at home did not start automatically.
So I started it. That is the gap between 09:12:39 and 21:00:01.

The client didn't close in a nice way :

[21:00:02] - Ensuring status. Please wait.
[21:00:19] - Looking at optimizations...
[21:00:19] - Working with standard loops on this execution.
[21:00:19] - Previous termination of core was improper.

Do you know why ?

In the process, the checkpoint file has been corrupted :

[21:00:19] - Checksums don't match (work/wudata_07.xtc)
[21:00:19] - Starting from initial work packet

[silas_the_monk]

Hmm. The machine did hang once recently, maybe then. In fact I can see that now it is working on the same WU and at 27%.

[anko1]

Is this similar to the issue of pausing the client and then shutting down the computer w/o stopping the client? Iirc, that's known to trash the unit (at least it worked that way for me, when my son did that. ).
