i see i'm not alone!!! one out of 10 are not validating!!! check the work unit, eveyone has failed it.

I got error (Client error)on work unit no.78579694, created on 15 May 2006 17:07:15 UTC, computed/crunched with SETI enhanched screensaver.

Don't know what it is. But it have to be something with the new enhanched system, because I don't think I have any errors before, untill now.

This work unit seems to have generated an error for everyone who crunched it:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=79874694

If I see a red-flagged workunit and see I've lost several hours computation, and see that most others who had calculated that unit have red shades too, I can feel comfortable that at least it was probably not with my apparatus but with that at Berkeley. I figure that the team there is doing its best and let those bad units pass as due to bugs yet with Boinc, SetiEnhanced and the hardware/software there. But if I see that my bad result is the only one and see three good results I begin to worry and wonder what was the problem that caused that error. The explanation in "hotmetal" rarely tells me anything.

---

All the results I return today (since ~16 UT) have a computation error, for Linux windos xp and OSX systems. These units were sent between May 24 and May 29. The other participants also got a computation error for the same units. The error diagnostic seems to be related to the time the results are returned, not to the unit themselve. A validation program error ?

---

3 out of 7 (one's in progress) computers received validate errors on WU http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=78176760,
sent May 14th. And 3 out 7 (again, one's in progress, plus 3 red bars were "unsent") computers received validate errors on WU
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=79926615, sent May 28th.
I had more, but they're no longer viewable. Haven't been able to upload since this morning due to error 403, so there's 7 waiting. If they error out after finally uploading, I'll be seriously upset.

---

I had 2 errors today

Validate errors

On of my PC's is crunching a work unit that will take a long time to complete!

any thoughts?

40,000 plus hours to complete! Running on a 1.8 ghz machine with 1 gig of ram

Results that has validate errors due to our server problems yesterday have been reset. Most should clear up and get credit by themselves. I may have some cleanup to do later.

I never had this much trouble with the classic version, my only option is to remove BOINC as all it has done is screw my system.

Can a whisper be heard across the universe?

After weeks of no units downloading, this is what I get for abou 30+ download attempts:

Damn, I miss the classic seti.

I wouldn't care, but the computer sits there all day waiting for an Enter key to be pressed.

What does it mean?

There was a lot of noise in the Work Unit.

I see more computer-specific errors and redlines. At least two other results of those units got through successfully. One was "cannot find path specified". Another I aborted after two hours because it wasnt progressing after at least several minutes. I hope it's not due to those new D950s, etc. And I'm not overclocking, etc. It looks like at least ten percent of the units are bad, including the ones that include three bad results.

Too many errors like this one:

Plus some of the messages from a Messages tab would be nice.

Sorry again. Im not very good at this.
The messages tab in Boinc doesn't seem to have any current entries but I looked in a file called stderrdae.txt on a couple of these machines and saw

some entries like
