Message 969123 - Posted: 8 Feb 2010, 2:21:15 UTC - in response to Message 969087.  

The machine I have running rescheduler now has BOINC in D:\BOINC & D:\BOINC\DATA. D:\BOINC\DATA contains the client_state.xml which rescheduler needs to modify. If that machines wasn't at work I'd get a screen shot of what is in there for ya.

EDIT: I don't think it matters, but I put rescheduler in the folder D:\BOINC.

Position=75
OnlyVLarVHar=1
TrueAngleRate=0
DataPath=D:\BOINC\DATA
BoincBinPath=D:\BOINC
VharToCpu=0

[Automatic]
Automatic=0
Interval=4
CPUPerInterval=50

I think your Reschedule.ini file should look something like this .. should work?

Well, it's got me stumped.
If you run it and hit the test button, is there any useful information in the logs tab that might give a clue?

Nope it shows the couple times it found GPU units and that is about it. Just shows 0 slots filled.


Just another thing to eliminate, are the tasks showing as v6.08 . Rescheduler won't work with v6.09

I don't have any GPU tasks to see, that is why I was trying to reschedule. I had noticed that the RAC had dropped over 1000 so I went to check on it and it has no GPU work.

Do you have the "move VHAR/VLAR to CPU only" checked do you? In that mode it doesn't seem to ever move tasks to the GPU. At least in my playing around with it I haven't got it to. The other day when no tasks were going out I disabled the move VH to CPU, set the slider to 60%, & rescheduled.

It shows 0 slots, doesn't matter which setting I try it can't see the work that is running. It has never seen my CPU tasks maybe someone has a link to the previous version?

Too Strange, I totally deleted boinc and reinstalled and put the data file in my docs and changed the location in reschedule and the locations were fine but still 0 slots and it can't see any of the units I have. I copied the old folder over and didn't lose any work but still no GPU work...

You might need to add quotes around the lines if you are using a folder with spaces in it. So instead of C:\Documents and Settings\Boinc you would have "C:\Documents and Settings\Boinc" and such.

Nope it didn't like that, it said the folder didn't exist when I put the " before and after. It finds the folders as it says "0 slots occuppied" and "no reschedule needed" when I do a test. If it doesn't like the destination it always give you the can't find folder message when you do a test. I guess it just isn't going to work for this machine....

Are you launching ReSchedule with a shortcut icon? Check the icon's properties, specifically the Start-In just to make sure it's not throwing things off (or maybe delete the icon and fresh create it). Also, under 'Advance,' you might want to checkbox 'run as admin' in case privs are tripping you up ("Documents and settings" is often sandboxed by user token).

Edit -- PS: Even if the lunatic versions were from the year 3000, ReSchedule shouldn't come back with Slots 0.

Nope, just starting it in the folder it is in. I also have 1.18 and it does the same thing. Both are in different folders.
EDIT: Will check and see if run as administrator is checked thanks...

When the correct data folder is used does it still give an error like this, or just show 0 tasks?

Must be too old a machine as I ran the most recent lunatics installer.


Some versions of Boinc seem to get confused when first moving to anonymous platform, and mark tasks with an earlier version (5.28). The 1 time I've seen this happen was a long time ago, and it corrected itself on the second work fetch (so I had tasks marked with 5.28 & 6.03 without having changed anything.)

Removing the 5.28 app version block from the app info & restarting Boinc should either prompt Boinc to remark the units to the remaining higher version number (6.03), or dump the tasks ... depending on the phase of the moon most likely.
