I just started receiving these the other day. Never saw one before. AFAIK it has nothing to do with overclocking. Validate Errors occur when the validator process on the server cannot find the result after it has been reported. Some versions of BOINC are more prone to getting them than others e.g. custom versions which report results immediately and earlier varients of the 5.9 and 5.10 series, particularly if CI is set to 0 or a very low value.

OK, just making sure. What an odd coincidence, though, that I've only seen these when I was OC'ing. Maybe I haven't been watching my results enough. I do appreciate the input, though, as that makes me feel a bit safer about the WU's I'm turning in. I feared I was turning in bad data. Thanks much. :) |

Here is my only one http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172177680 Probably happened when I manually reported the result about 20secs after upload finished. Claimed credit was 74.07. |

Well offhand I would say this has developed into a VERY SERIOUS Problem. All these have occured in the last 24 hours and I have more that I could report. Got tired of copying all of them. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=174494396 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172271337 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=149263281 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172169120 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172169056 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172121609 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172108224 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172071605 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=172061845 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=171996611 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=171970395 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=171964751 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=171928162 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=171911707 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=171613185 I should also report that I have not had this problem until this week and it effects all of my machines. I have increased the connect interval to see if that helps. |

And another one today. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=171633333 We have been granted credit in the past when there was a problem with the validator. Not a fast machine but I'm seeing about 25% error rate here. Not good. |

To my knowledge, if (you have a bad OC and) the flopcounter have a different result.. your result will be unusable. ..and then 'invalid', or? |

More compute errors ... This messages show you that you have RAM mistakes. Have a look to your RAMs and make a memtest. Do you OC your PC? |

I'm running a single-core Intel box w/5.10.13 and have gotten two of these, one yesterday and another today: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=174026794 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=174194668 In both cases, it looks like another machine has crunched 'em okay. These are the first and only of this sort I've seen -- so far. My (sob) average is dropping! |
