Project: 4403 (Run 9, Clone 8, Gen 2)

Post by dgermann »

I've been assigned this WU three times. Each time, it aborts with a communications error. The error does not happen at the same step. The associated log file fragments for the three failing runs are included below.

I've successfully processed 3 other Project 4403 WUs to completion on this CPU (as well as 14 more WUs from other projects, plus 19 more WUs on the other CPU):
Project: 4403 (Run 29, Clone 1, Gen 1)
Project: 4403 (Run 53, Clone 11, Gen 11)
Project: 4403 (Run 40, Clone 10, Gen 17)

Does this mean there's most likely a problem with this particular WU, or could there be something wrong with my machine (off-the-shelf Dell PowerEdge 840 with C2D E4500 2.2 GHz, running Ubuntu Linux 7.10)?

Thanks!

Consider this an unusual WU. It has been returned by 6 different people, all with different point totals, so it does fail in different places, for who knows what reason? Thanks for the report.

I'm curious to know how this happens. Of course, this being error 0x0 doesn't help but I thought a bad WU is one where the given set of values (and their computations until the point of failure) cause the "planet to fly off the trajectory" as someone said in the old forum (bruce perhaps?). Anyway, isn't this violation of limits supposed to occur at the same stage [unless caused by hardware instabilities] or is there some randomness inherent to each folding simulation of the same WU? Or are there many kinds of bad WUs? Forgive me if this is a silly question.
