Golden rule of development is broken.
If you add new feature allow opt out from it !
If you added new color scheme - make choice available to revert to old one.

In particular, white on gray is BAD choice.

Well there is one change I've noticed on all 7 AP's I've got so far.. Instead of AstroPulse v7
Anonymous platform ... under app name column, there is simple Not in DB. I hope it's only temporary hickup. Workunit 1856190645

Every task I've checked has the last man reporting marked as Invalid. I doubt very seriously that EVERY last man had an Invalid task, especially when the results match the other two tasks. Check it out.

Link for such match?

I've got 26 invalids in total and all of them follows that scenario...

btw, "nice" way from the project to say thanks for your time and effort.

Next question.. why did you get v7 instead of v7.05? v7 is for CPU..That's unusual


Edit...
Could it be the naming of the AP in your app_info? Or did you try to transfer a CPU work unit to the GPU? Just throwing some ideas out there...


I didn't mess with anything like that, knowing how sensitive new apps can be. I just downloaded nv app from Mike's link put files in place and modified app_info.

Edit: Strange how simple solutions can make wonders. Simple restart did the thing and now everything is fine. thx anyway!

Is there any minimum driver requirements for running V7 NV app? I've got 4 tasks which failed out immediately with ominous "output file absent" error message. The only thing I can think of is that I'm using an rather old driver.

Quick question: is there a difference in AP CPU apps between win32 and win64 installers? I have a mix of both operating systems and there were no problems installing AVX app on 64bit Win 7, but when I tried to run win32 installer on my 32bit Win 7 it gave me SSE3 app and instead of AVX there is SSE3(AMD) sitting on it's spot. BTW, rigs I'm talking about are identical, except for the 32 vs 64 win7 type.

It stopped raining here too... :(

Problem is that we recieved 4 month of precipitation in less than 72 hrs and only utter devastation remains now.

Thanks for everything Matt.

Nonetheless, there seems to be a little annoyance regarding Astropulse validation. This AP wu is stuck in validating limbo and there are whole bunch of them from where this one came. They all belong to a batch that was uploaded and reported right after you guys brought the project back online. Don't know if it is outage related, but we saw similar things in the past with v505.
