Hi, Anybody who can help me with these issues??? Why is it these GPU tasks fails!?!? I know it's Asteroids jobs, but SETI AstroPulse v. 7.04 (Linux/GPU Jobs) doesn't work either... No SETI AstroPulse v. 7.04 either ;( Astropulse is generating work again Hoping to hear from you ;) Happy holidays ;) Kind Regards, Dan Project Headless CLI Linux Multiple GPU Boinc Servers Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 64bit Kernel 3.13.0-32-generic CPU's i5-4690K GPU's GT640/GTX750TI Nvidia v.340.29 BOINC v.7.2.42 |

Since most (all?) of the highlighted download failures appear to be connected to Asteroids you would be far better asking the question over there. The one group highlighted that are S@H's are not an uncommon sight. Its all to do with the way S@H prepares and distributes work. A batch of 100 work units are prepared for distribution, and are sent out to the first valid requests. Once that batch of 100 is sent out another batch is prepared. If your request arrives in the time it takes to prepare a batch there will be no work for you - its a bit of a pain, you have to wait for your next valid request slot to try again (abut 5 minutes?). Even in normal times you may have to wait a couple of cycles to get some work if you are unlucky to make a request when the output cache is empty.

The Astroids download issue is an ongoing issue the admins has been working on. See this thread for details. I get about 2500 errors for ever 20-30 good tasks. For most projects you can check the Server Status to see the amount of work "Results ready to send". In this case you will notice that Astropulse is 0. Astropulse work is generally always in high demand/short supply. Also there is not currently a stock MB Nvidia linux app. Which you can check by accessing the Applications list for the project.

Hi Rob & Hal9000 ;) Thanks for your reply. Hal9000, OK! I see... This is very useful. Now I can just look there before searching for errors. Thanks! Maybe this is why there was only 1 job done on one of my systems in a pretty long time:

I was able to create an account with Einstein@Home & 2 other projects using the "lost password" link with my 2nd account. It has only ever been connected to SETI@home, but my username & other account info was carried over. I imagine this is part of the BOINC project syncing process. As the account creation date listed on the other projects displays March 4th. I know for a fact I was not attaching to any projects or any other messing around that day. Given I was having my HVAC replaced. SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the [url=http://tinyurl.com/8y46zvu]BP6/VP6 User Group[ |

So, I chose to try Einstein@, but of course I couldn't create an account. They have closed for new accounts. Just attach and use email they write. Well, this is ok if you are using e.g. the BoincManager, but when using the command line tool "BOINCCMD" I'm not sure if this is at all possible!?!? You use "--create_account URL email password name" followed by "--lookup_account URL email password" is necessary. |

Hi HAL9000 & Juha ;) Thanks. I'll try both things! Because I've just looked at all my jobs done for SETI and only 1 !! Only 1 was done by a GPU/Linux and that was on 23 Mar 2014, 23:03:40 UTC !! I'm so g.. d... disappointed. I really wanted to support SETI with all these GPU systems. I just found a new Low Profile card which does more than twice the amount of work than the GT640. I just bought the GTX750TI and I'm testing right now. 3 or 4 month ago when I noticed that none Linux/GPU jobs where being done I shut them down.. All of them but one. I don't want an electrical bill that high when I'm doing nothing to help. What would you do? Wait and see what happens? Or implement those apps from e.g. lunatics and do that way around? http://lunatics.kwsn.net/index.php?module=Downloads Thought about a year ago, but I'm totally green here. *********************** Found this: If you're running a command-line or pre-5.0 version of BOINC, create an account first. Sorry, but web acccount creation is disabled Just run BOINC, select Attach Project, and enter an email address and password. *********************** Tried it!!! It worked perfectly! Thanks a lot! For others, here how to do it: To create a account for Einstein using CLI Command: # boinccmd --create_account http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/ myemail@gmail.com mypassword theusernameiwant Reply from CLI Einsten: # account key: 722453269c2226a71e7f0e76465764212 Use the ID/account key to attach to the project: Command: boinccmd --project_attach http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/ 722453269c2226a71e7f0e76465764212 Remember! If you are using password and port other than the default, add "--host 192.168.x.xx:xxxxx --passwd mypassword" after "boinccmd" but before everything else ;) Thanks for your help! 10 seconds after I attached Einsten BRP5-cuda32 jobs started to pour in ;) KR Dan Project Headless CLI Linux Multiple GPU Boinc Servers Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 64bit Kernel 3.13.0-32-generic CPU's i5-4690K GPU's GT640/GTX750TI Nvidia v.340.29 BOINC v.7.2.42 |

You look at the wrong place - task lists are purged (info about validated tasks 'vanish' from the web page ~day after validation) Application details for host 7247578 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/host_app_versions.php?hostid=7247578 AstroPulse v7 7.04 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (opencl_nvidia_100): "Number of tasks completed 90" This means at least 90 AstroPulse v7 tasks are done by NVIDIA GPU on Linux (not all "Completed and validated" tasks are counted on "Number of tasks completed" value) ... Or implement those apps from e.g. lunatics ... This is where you can read how Linux users successfully run NVIDIA CUDA SETI@home app on Linux (Download link - at the (jason_gee) post linked): http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=77018&postid=1660631#1660631 Ask there if you need info on how to 'install' preserving CPU tasks  - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :)  |

Hi BilBg, Thanks for the heads up ;) Thanks for the links. As you remember I'm a clown when it comes to building XML files ;) Have a nice easter ;) KR Dan Project Headless CLI Linux Multiple GPU Boinc Servers Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 64bit Kernel 3.13.0-32-generic CPU's i5-4690K GPU's GT640/GTX750TI Nvidia v.340.29 BOINC v.7.2.42 |
