At least this one did not "hang". :)

:e?:

At least the darn thing doesn't simply cause the client to stop and remain idle until detected.

The thing that burns me is that I have one Quad that has been assigned the identical defective WU on at least 5 occasions. It runs for many hours and then 0xwhatevers and starts again from scratch.

Due to the lack of error trapping (in certain cases), the Powers that Be would be totally unaware of the failure(s) and others have undoubtedly suffered through the same thing.

I know that the SMP processing is extremely difficult to debug.

On the other hand, it seems to me that the code could be modified to revert to the last checkpoint and actually send results back to our friends at Stanford for ALL of the 0x cases for which the cause has not yet been determined. This communication should eliminate multiple assignments of the same WU.

Partial credit would be welcomed by many who fold for points (I fold "In Memory of").

The main benefit would be the elimination of the frustration from what I will continue to refer to as the Projects #1 Asset - i.e. its enthusiastic base of VOLUNTEERS. :)

The combined Linux Client is supposed to be a "final" stable release? :?:

I too fold [inMEMORYof]

I have seen a similar SMP situation where the client hangs or just plain shuts down after an EUE .
Using Vista Ultimate 64, dropping in the 6.22beta2r3 executable cured the 'shut down' after EUE issue.

Geesh!

We spend the time and expense of running these defective WUs.
We come up with a 0xwhatever - multiple times each in most cases.
We take the time to report the defective WU here - more than 20 times on this one (per toTOW).

Nothing happens!!! :?

Why has this one not been pulled?
Why are we even wasting our time and effort in reporting these?

The worst news is that I have had a defective one re-assigned after completion of a good WU, only to have to go through the entire process again.

I am a bit miffed. (to say it as politely and mildly as possible) :)

I know that you Forum Mods (and above) have contacts with the Pande folks.
Is there not something that you can do?
Perhaps it's time to bring up the subject in your Mods Forum or whatever you call it here?

People are dropping out of the project like flies!! :e(

Geesh! (#2) :(

Did I mention that defective WUs are being assigned to the same machine that attempted to complete them previously - and often days later?
What a waste!!

Here is the evidence (at least it is not a failure at frame 99): :)

Uploading the wuresults_0x.dat files will decrease the chance you get these bad WUs reassigned to you. You'll probably need to use qfix like I did. I checked the WU database for this WU, your not listed.

No wuresults_x.dat file is generated in these cases - at least with the Linux Client.

I think that they need to kill this WU and re-run Run 0, Clone 479, Gen 19.

In any event, my expectation is that I should NOT have to watch the machines on my "farm" closely.
They should be "fed" WUs that are reasonably stable AND do not cause client hangs (if the WUs are the cause of this).
Client/Cores should be properly coded so that ALL errors are reported to Pande and partial credit awarded.
Mutiple assignments of defective WUs to the same machine should be eliminated immediately.

That said I understand a few things, namely:

1. Errors generated by this genre of code can be extremely difficult to troubleshoot.
2. Apparently, the Linux Client is FAR down in the Project's priorities - quite subordinate to the GPU and WIN SMP work.
3. I am not particularly pleased with the release of what is proported to be a "final combined client"/core(s) with this many bugs in it.
IMHO it is still a "beta" release.

4. I greatly appreciate the efforts of those people at Pande who are trying to stabilize things.
I also appreciate their responsiveness.

Fold on!

I thought SMP was still in beta? And that even the cpu version 6.22 that you can switch back and forth between cpu and smp clients was also and the only version 6 client in beta?

Linux
Linux (x86) and BSD *combined uniprocessor and SMP client* (64-bit required for SMP) 6.02

No "expiration date" that I know of and not labeled "beta" (as before).

You may, of course, be right. I am easily and gracefully correctable. :)

Are we talking about the same client?

Turns out we're both right. The Windows SMP is still in beta but not the Linux one.

Have y'all tried running one instance per core? I ask cause I'm curious whether the Linux 6.02 client will work that way. That's what I do on my mom's winxp dual core anyway, with the 6.20 console/service version. It works fine. But that's in Windows, which sadly still seems to have higher priority. I chose that route to avoid possible beta SMP baloney. Besides, the CPU runs to its potential, which it didn't with the Windows SMP version. (It's also sad that I built my mom a computer way better than mine in every way when her most intensive tasks are email and freecell.) :e?:

But this is about Linux. I'm using the same (current Linux version) 6.02 on a uniprocessor (AthlonXP 3200+) and I'm having some similar trouble of my own. So maybe it's related?

I agree that it's a terrible thing to disenfranchise the user base, since this project clearly would be NOWHERE without a user base. On the other hand, I think the average Linux user tends to be a bit more patient with the process of working bugs out than the average Windows user. :lol:

The crash reporting process, on the other hand, should DEFINITELY be built into the client / server communication structure, whether directly to the Pande group, or via assignment servers. This seems to me a fairly obvious concept which still to escapes the attention it deserves. C'mon, I even have a bittorrent client (Miro) that calls home with crash-report details.

Next time it crashes, I'll try this qfix thing you guys are talking about.
(And it likely might; I'm still on the same work unit - Project: 781 (Run 0, Clone 83, Gen 2).) :x
