How did you start FAHClient? The script is supposed to start automatically as a service when you reboot, but if that isn't working, try
> sudo /etc/init.d/FAHClient start

INTERRUPTED isn't really an error, it generally means that you closed the terminal that you used to start it.

it starts automatically after I have added a cpu slots with 6 cpu core from FAHcontrol. So how can something itnerrupt it when it runs as a service? If it helps then I have a GPU folding without problem that I also have configured by FAHcontrol. And it is only for A4 and not for A7

I tried to install folding@home 7.4.16 where is starts as services but I still have the same problem. It starts correctly but then it get interrupted and tries again with the same error. over and over again. I have also tried with different amount of cores with no changes.

Is Project: 9031 (Run 372, Clone 1, Gen 1076) the only A4 project that has failed? What other projects have been assigned?

Re: Cannot fold A4 cpu but can fold A7

Post by beer »

As far as I can read on https://github.com/FoldingAtHome/fah-issues/issues/1157 then there might be a bug in libfah/OpenMM that course the problem. Do you think it is the case this time? That could explain why I am only seeing thep problem with A4 and not wutg A7

No, the A4 core does not use OpenMM, it uses Gromacs. So does the A7 core, just a later revision of Gromacs.

The possibilities I can think of are having a corrupted A4 executable or missing a support library needed to support it running.

Re: Cannot fold A4 cpu but can fold A7

Post by beer »

I assumed have also assumed that it was the core that was the problem and therefore I have tried
1: Remove the CPU slot while letting the GPU slot continue
2: Delete /var/lib/fahclient/cores/fahwebx.stanford.edu/cores/Linux/AMD64/AVX/Core_a4.fah/FahCore_a4
3: Add the CPU slot again.

The result is the same as before. When resiving a A4 (this time with a fresh core in this case) still fails and when I resive an A7 then it fold like it should. What support library could be missing? Did I do it the right way of refreshing the core ?

There is no AVX in the path to the a4 core. If you truly tried to delete the core in that path nothing would have changed.

The correct path looks like:

/var/lib/fahclient/cores/fahwebx.stanford.edu/cores/Linux/AMD64/Core_a4.fah/FahCore_a4

Your log above does show the correct path.

ups I did a wrong when writing the path in the above post. it should have been /var/lib/fahclient/cores/fahwebx.stanford.edu/cores/Linux/AMD64/Core_a4.fah/FahCore_a4 and I could see in my logs that it is redownload when I readd a new cpu slot

05:24:10: OS: Linux 4.14.0-3-amd64 x86_64
What distro & version of linux are you using?

My reason for asking is 4.14.03 has a severe bug in it:

Re: Cannot fold A4 cpu but can fold A7

Hi
I have just installed Debian sid (before it was Debian stable) on my mashine. I did install FAH the exactly same way. As far as I can se then I should be running 4.14.17 which (as I can se from the but report) already have resived a fix for the problem.

I did notice something in the log I have not seen before:

Code: Select all

16:35:49:Started thread 15 on PID 662
16:36:07:WARNING:FS01:Size of positions 392 does not match topology 389
Is this related to me not being able to run A4-cores?

We may learn something else by looking deeper into another log file.

Immediately after the error, pause the CPU slot. Note the number of the WU that's running.
(The log shown above says 05:24:36:WU00:FS00:0xa4. I'm not interested in FS00 [the slot number] but in WU00 and that number changes regularly.) In the /work folder which is in the same directory as the log file. you'll find a subdirectory called 00, matching whatever WU00 says. Post the information from another log file you'll find there.

Note: When FAHClient determines a WU has failed or is finished, that file and the entire directory will be deleted, so if you can't find it, you didn't pause the WU at the precise moment you needed to. Try again later.

We do not see FS01 in your logs, but I am assuming it is your GPU slot and that "Size of positions 392 does not match topology 389" is a GPU warning unrelated to this issue, my GTX 1050ti issues this warning every percentage point I am running.
