Last night my new ProtoMol work units began downloading a new b4 core v20. Every one of these work units (3 so far) has not only failed to complete because of the same errors, but they have not returned the work units.

Right after posting the above, I had another ProtoMol work unit complete successfully with b4 core v20. It was the only ProtoMol work unit running on that system, together with 3 GROMACS work units. The above 3 error work units were all running on the same system, together with 1 GROMACS work unit. It seems that ProtoMol plays well with others, but not with itself.

Looks like a bad WU. In the future, could you please format the subject to include the project number with the R/C/G info such as the following in the case of this unit:

Project: 10001 (Run 408, Clone 4, Gen 3) - EARLY_END_UNIT

This makes it much easier on the developers to spot and address.

Posted: **Thu Dec 24, 2009 3:25 pm**

I didn't include those details in the subject because there were 3 separate clients all with the same error. And the details are listed in the log file I included for one of the work units should that prove relevant. But it does not appear to me that the problem is with the those particular work units, but with the new core itself, which is why I put that in the subject instead.

By the way, the subject line was not entirely my creation. I stopped after "Core 20", but the " - EARLY_UNIT_END" showed up all by itself!

Posted: **Thu Dec 24, 2009 3:30 pm**

Noted Bob, thanks for clarifying. For the record, I've done several of them with the new version 20 core without issue so I didn't think there were core wide issues with version 20. Definitely worth investigating however.

Following up on the 3 errors with the v20 core...

The EARLY_UNIT_END message led me to believe that the work units had failed and that the partial results should have been returned. I was planning to leave those 3 clients closed rather than taking a chance on getting additional ProtoMol work units that would not finish.

However, a short time ago I decided to restart them anyway just to see what work units would be assigned. None of them requested a new work unit. Instead they all picked up the existing work units that had been in progress at the same points where they were when the clients crashed. I can't wait to see if they can actually run to completion!

Sorry about the problems v21 is out which should fix this problem.

I've only had one like that, but it finished without any problems.
