Core 22 is not ready to be on Advanced

Now that Core 22 is on advanced (or said to be), I thought to give it a try.
So in the slots directory for my GTX 1070, I set the "client-type advanced" flag.

But so far, all I get is "ERROR:WU00:FS01:Exception: Failed reading core package header"

Merged with topic posted in subforum for message about GPU projects and cores - j

I am having an issue where it seems the gpu is trying to download a core that seems to not exist.

Thank you. I deleted that tag and rebooted, and now I can't get any core to install.
EDIT: Or at least I deleted it in my client. Maybe the server is still trying to send it?

You also need to delete the WU and restart the client. It still has the Core 22 WU you downloaded before and the GPU slot will keep trying to run that and download the necessary core while the WU is present.

how can i do this i tried the command-line but it seems to not be having it

As you can see from the finish it can connect just fine...

Actually it is not connecting just fine "23:30:05:ERROR:Exception: Access denied".

There are details of using the command line commands that I looked into years ago, long ago enough that I do not recall details. If every last thing is done right, and there are no firewall issues, then that dump command will work.

Ion the meantime one thing that will definitely work if you have a single GPU slot is to pause folding, delete the slot using FAHClient, and unease it. The client will see no suitable slot to process a GPU WU and will dump it. Then you can recreate the GPU slot.

Apologies everyone, I messed up with having the new core set right on the core download server and your clients weren't able to get it. PLEASE DUMP THE WUs. Proper testing will resume by tomorrow.

Core 22 is giving nothing but "bad work unit" errors on my machines that use a GTX 1050 or GTX 1050 ti on those cards ONLY.
Have tried deleting the entire Core_22.fah directory (it redownloaded and started working correctly on the various GTX 1070/1080/1080ti cards in the same systems) - no change.

It would seem this core is NOT COMPATABLE with the GTX 1050 or 1050 ti for some reason.

(Update)
It's may be an issue with project "11733", as I'm also seeing some "bad work unit" errors on 1070/1080/1080ti cards on that project now with core 22.
I went to the extent of deleting ALL core directories AND workunits on one Linux machine with a pair of GTX 1070 and a GTX 1080 - and now the GTX 1080 cards is giving constant "bad work unit" errors and they are ALL project 11733 so far.
The other two cards in that machine are currently crunching 11733 work units though - and they SEEM to be working.

(More Update)
the card that was giving the constant "bad work units" has now gone "failed" - and a search through the log shows all of the bad work units were compaining of "bad state detected" and "Particle coordinate nan" - and I'm STILL getting those messages added to the log on that card even though it's in "failed" mode.


For reference - this machine HAD been working reliably before this core 22 showed up, is NOT and NEVER HAS BEEN overclocked, and the cards normally run around 55-60 C when actively working on a WU.
Same for the other machines I'm having issues with - out of all of my machines (which are ALL 3-card setups that have been STABLE for many months) I only have ONE that is still running all 3 cards reliably.

Picked up first one of these on an AMD RX 460 and it seems stable so far. However, GPU load fluctuates a lot. This card generally produces 80-115K PPD but estimated PPD is currently 75K.

Windows 8.1 with 17.7.1 drivers (newest available for this config).

I can confirm the AMD variable loads problem on my RX 570 (Win7 64-bit, 18.9.3 drivers), driven by two free cores of an i7-4771.
This card is undervolted to 1.000 volts (default 1.150 volts) for reduced power and heat, and it is overclocked to 1344 MHz (default 1244 MHz).
On Core 21, it usually operates at 100% GPU load and 270 to 330 k PPD, and about 95 watts power at 72 to 74 C (as measured by GPU-Z).

But with Core 22 and P11733, it is getting around 200 k PPD, the lowest I have ever seen, with a 67% average GPU load (highly variable), 85 watts power at 70 C.
It needs to work harder.
