The problem has been corrected.

Acually, it was only present for a few minutes. I'm actually surprised how many people managed to be assigned one of the defective projects before the error was corrected.

With the number of people with idle cards due to the shortage of gpu units I dont find it surprising at all. Off to check my systems to see if they got caught up in this.

Good morning,

Just for information, same issue here:

You may find that simply pausing all your GPU slots (at the same time if you have multiples) and then unpausing them might allow the client to start the core download properly not that it is on the server … might be worth a try before deleting anything

Hi Neil-B,

I try to do it as you said, i pause the GPU and started again and he download the Core_22.fah but still doing the same error return.
Ps.: I try to dump i found out the work folder but inside was only logs not the WO itself.

/var/lib/fahclient/work

you should have at least a directory called 00 or 01.

so pause the client

Code: Select all

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/fahclient/work

re-start the client

Worked, Thanks HaloJones +1

EDIT: I don't know why i received this WU because i'm not listed on beta projects.

Posted: **Fri Apr 24, 2020 1:48 pm**

This project and another actually moved from beta to advanced last night - so I guess you have the advanced flag set - there is always a risk with advanced albeit not as much as with beta … there was an oversight when the new core wasn't loaded to the server prior to the WUs being released which has caused these errors … Apologies were posted to forum, lessons have been learnt, processes changed to reduce chance of this happening again.

Posted: **Fri Apr 24, 2020 2:04 pm**

@Neil-B is right! This was an oversight on my part that we're correcting with a checklist right now.
Only a few hundred 0.0.5 WUs got out to ADVANCED without the core made available for full FAH. We'll roll 0.0.5 out to full ADVANCED/FAH today to eliminate any other stuck WUs!

Posted: **Fri Apr 24, 2020 8:17 pm**

For Windows users:

- Start FAHControl
- PAUSE the entire host
- Under the Status tab, select the GPU slot with the problem WU
- Look at the Work Queue list at the bottom and make a note of the ID of the row that is now automatically selected
- Click on Windows Start menu, launch File Explorer
- In the path bar at the top, enter %AppData%\FAHClient\work
- You should see folders with the WU IDs
- First click on the FAHClient icon in the taskbar and select QUIT to really end folding on all slots
- Now delete the folder under %AppData%\FAHClient\work that corresponds to the problem WU's ID
- Restart your computer
- Start FAHControl
- FOLD the entire host to take it out of the PAUSE state

This is what worked for me on two hosts...

We've released core22 0.0.5 to full FAH, so this should resolve on its own now!

John -

I notice I was assigned a project 14300 today on my dual-GTX960 Windows 10 system (client-type advanced). The description of your project suggests this should be Linux-only - is this correct?

Also, this exercises an issue in a multi-GPU system - with the other slot running on core version 0.0.2, the slot with this WU is hung trying to update the core and will not start until about 5 hours from now. With the size of the work unit I doubt it will finish on time.

Finally, unless you are planning to restrict this to higher performance GPUs, I don't think it will complete within the allotted time on some GPUs. It's benchmarked at 256,000 points or so, and my GTX 750Ti Linux machines do about 100,000 per day. It may need more than 1.5 days to complete if this is the case.

Cheers -
Sam

I briefly restored `win` assignments after thinking we had corrected the PPD issue, but the PPD divergence on win seemed too large to bridge, so we restricted to linux again.
I'm guessing you were assigned a WU during this period.

Oh no! I think others have reported they were able to pause and resume with the newer core version. There should be no compatibility issues between them.

Thanks for the heads-up here. We'll either reduce the number of steps or extend the deadline for future iterations. The tight deadline was due to the extreme time pressure in validating these calculations so we can use them in the COVID Moonshot now that the chemists are starting to switch from hit-finding to lead-optimization.

We really appreciate all the feedback, and this will have to be an iterative process of refining things over the next few weeks as we try to improve these new workflows. We also want to be sure to deliver better molecules for our chemists to test against COVID-19 targets, so we hope you can give us a little temporary leeway as we work out these issues.

Thanks so much for all the help!

No problem John. I can imagine you're under some serious pressure with the way things are going now. I'm proud to be supporting your work.

Good to note on pausing - I'll try that on my other systems if that happens. For what it's worth, the unit wound up getting hosed - seeing as I didn't think it would complete before the timeout, I tried deleting the slot to get it sent back to the server, but it got queued for the running slot. Then when I created the slot again, it downloaded a new unit so I decided to prioritize that one. The unit that went was: Project: 13400 (Run 112, Clone 8, Gen 0).

Good luck with everything!

Cheers -
Sam

edit: hey im leaving this up, i didn't realize my post had to be approved by a mod and figured the issue out while it was getting posted by reading the thread more thoroughly. I don't know if the beta team is aware this also happened a day or 2 ago with v0.0.3 on the same WU and wanted to let them know as well. Thanks for the instructions on how to properly delete the WU though, those were mighty useful since as I mentioned i bricked a client with a perfectly good WU on another slot because of it and not knowing how to properly delete the WU (i near followed these instructions on my own trying to figure it out, but it just didn't quite work properly since i guess the client wasnt restarted properly or closed properly

Hey guys, I have the same problem with this project. My slots are all flagged client-type advanced and this isn't the first time it happened (first was when you deployed v0.0.3). Last time this happened I had to reinstall the client to fix it after trying to tinker with it for several hours and breaking my client in the process. I've got all my other slots on finish right now anticipating having to because pausing and playing so it downloads the latest core isn't working. Someone wanna help save this WU before it gets wiped in a reinstall so I can get my 2060 (fastest card in the farm of 8 cards) back up doing work I'm configured to receive? As you can see it's been stuck this way for a couple hours now.
