It worked! :)

The only "problem" is that this particular machine has a daily quota of 1 tast per day now. I hope it will change within days.

Your quota should rapidly increase as soon as you start to report valid tasks again.

Message 993993 - Posted: 4 May 2010, 10:18:14 UTC - in response to Message 993311.  

Hasn't increased yet. There must be other things that is wrong too.

I got a triple core AMD prosessor running Fedora Core 12. it has stopped working. It seems like it got a lot of downloaded taskt, but it won't process them.

When running the client in a shell windows, this is what I get:
$ ./run_client

I also tried a
./boinccmd --set_run_mode always


but that does not seem to help. I did this since the first machine (the FC4) I had problem with began to suspend boinc while I was working on it (even the setup say it should always run). This worked on the FC4 machine, but does not seem to work on the FC12 machine.

According to your BOINC state, you have 210 tasks ready to report. You should do a
./boinccmd --project http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/ update

What about error messages in stdoutdae?

Doing the command above I get:
can't connect to local host.

If I do a run_client in a shell I get:

That should give a "Project is down" message in reply, the indication is the Scheduler requests aren't getting any kind of connection. There's a successful "master file" get, which ensures the host has the correct host name of the Scheduler. Possibly it's a DNS problem where the host name isn't being translated to the right IP address.

I've checked my DNS - no error messages are being reported (all machines are using the same DNS server).

I also checked my firewall, the XP machine, where things seem to be working OK (1) is contacting the same IP as the linux machines, where things does not work properly.

The triple core machine has probably not been able to get new work sets for at least a week. And it has 210 work sets to report, but it's not able to report them.

1: Currently all machines are reporting "Project has no jobs available".

On the status page it says that lando and bamdi are not working, could this be the problem? because i can't get any wu's.

Oh well it gives me more time to plant some lettuce and onions, i'm not going to make a meal out of it.

There is only one dataset left loaded to split...so very few WUs are being generated compared to the usual number...work will be very hard to come by until some more datasets are loaded.

I just inquired if anybody knows why in the Panic Mode thread.....

Firstly you should report completed tasks. You can check availability of the upload server (208.68.240.16) by visiting the URL http://setiboincdata.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/file_upload_handler with your favorite browser from this triple core machine.

Normal answer looks like:

<data_server_reply>
    <status>1</status>
    <message>no command</message>
</data_server_reply>

If it does, check your uploading (completed tasks reported through the file "sched_request_setiathome.berkeley.edu.xml", so maybe this file can't be uploaded due to size)

If it doesn't, change URL with direct numbers instead of symbolic name and repeat visit.

That would be wget, since this machine does not have any screen, keyboard or mouse ;)

And the answer looks like you said:


<data_server_reply>

    <message>no command</message>

I checked the file, but I'm not sure what to look for. I see there is a lot of messages like:

Are you telling us that we are running out of work? That even if everything is working normal, there will be no more work sets to download?

I dunno....that's why I asked...
Since then only 2 more datasets have been loaded, both reblanked 06's.

But enough that much more MB work is becoming available, and AP splitting has been restarted as well.

Message 994243 - Posted: 5 May 2010, 16:42:23 UTC - in response to Message 994202.  

The first FC4 machine, which I had problem with can get new works now. It get one work set and, when it's finished it upload it and get a new one without having to wait.

At the same time the triple core FC12 machine is not able to report anything nor get any new work sets. Many of the work set that it want to upload is about to time out or has timed out.

In my opinion it seems like there is something wrong at the server side.

Should I delete everything on the triple core machine and then reinstall BOINC again?

Firstly you should report completed tasks. You can check availability of the upload server
...

The 210 tasks dahls has are "Ready to report" so they have already been uploaded successfully. Communications with the upload handler are done, it's communicating with the Scheduler that's failing.

Thx, Josef. I missed this.

@dahls: Jørn, you can visit scheduler URL http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi from machine under question?

Normal answer looks like:

<scheduler_reply>
<scheduler_version>611</scheduler_version>
<master_url>http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/</master_url>
<request_delay>11.000000</request_delay>
<message priority="low">Error in request message: no start tag </message>
<project_name>SETI@home</project_name>
</scheduler_reply>

In my opinion it seems like there is something wrong at the server side.

To determine this, look into server answer after the uploading attempt (file "sched_reply_setiathome.berkeley.edu.xml")
Normal acknowledgement for completed task looks like:

...
<result_ack>
    <name>11dc06ag.26523.16023.4.10.112_0</name>
</result_ack>
...

Excuse me please, I never saw rejecting server answer, can't tell which it looks like.

Should I delete everything on the triple core machine and then reinstall BOINC again?

IMHO, in case of such big uploading troubles, which makes crunching at this machine useless, this action seems normal from my point of view...
