Hi all,

while idly looking through my pending list I found three tasks from May 12th (e.g. 611463594) where both results have been reported but are still showing as waiting for validation.
I was just wondering whether they've become stuck or something and will evetually be cleaned up or whether I'm looking at some kind of problem.

P.S. 12 degrees C in Yorkshire in JUNE :(

This happens from time to time, and with all the recent upheavals, I'm not surprised it's happening now. It's probably a relatively low priority for the staff to look into manually just at the moment: but IIRC, there's an automatic re-check at the time of the original deadline (27 Jun 2010 13:54:14 UTC, in your case). Hang on till then: if it's still unvalidated, remind us again and we'll see if the panic in the server closet has died down a bit.

P.S. 12 degrees C in Yorkshire in JUNE :(

Tell me about it! I'm trying to pluck up courage to go out and fetch some lunch. At least it's not like Wednesday: gales, rain, clouds down to the tree-tops....

Thank you,

I'll wait till next month then to see if they require some serious prodding. With the current problems I certainly don't want to add to the workload with this minor annoyance.

On the bad side: I just had a work unit error out.

Application: SETI@home Enhanced 6.08 (cuda)
Status: Computation error

On the good side: It flagged itself as a Computation error. So at least
it should be going back flagged as "Uh my brain hurts"

27 June 2010 it is - and it looks like the WU has validated. It's good that this particular failsafe still seems to be working, while everything else is falling down around our ears.

One thing I forgot to say is that, having validated, the WU will probably now be purged quickly (24 hours from 13:54:14 UTC today), so I'll preserve the evidence in case the OP checks back next month.

Mine's at Pending credit: 91,036.53 , which is the higher usual (about double) , so I'd say that's 'about' normal for your RAC.

Mine's been sitting over the 100K mark for months now so you have nothing to worry about. :)
