I think this was my first full Astropulse through here at Main: WU 309779893. 940091886 2901600 3 Aug 2008 10:48:00 UTC 6 Aug 2008 5:34:43 UTC Over Success Done 229,879.30 719.06 0.00 Both tasks ran on Intel Core2-class machines under Windows - my Vista 32, his XP 64. Both say 'Success' and 'Valid' in all the right places, yet it's gone out to a third host for re-crunching. Another one for the Berkeley Boys, methinks. ID: 793641 ·  |

I'd better link in Matt's technical news from Monday 04 August: Message 792874. However the validator stopped granting credit for these workunits - something we'll fix and we can also retroactively give people their credit. (my emphasis) So don't worry, credit will be granted eventually - I just want to make sure it stays on their 'to do' list. ID: 793645 · |

Why do I get the following error on all astropulse files?

Hey. I have had seti for some time and it done one packake about an 5 hours. now tho its doing some package called astropulse 4.35. How its different than normal packages? Estimate time is 80 hours. Thanks. They are sending two kinds of WU's out at the moment, normal Seti WU's and Astropulse WU's. You can read about Astropulse here. Yes, the Astropulse WU's take significant longer time to crunch, so those 80 hours may not be too far from how much time, your WU will take to finish, dependent on your computer's processor and others. I haven't had any AP WU's here yet, I am waiting for a new app-info.xml file to be released because I run an optimized client here, but the AP WU's I have crunched on the Beta/Astropulse project have taken about 150 or more to crunch on my computer, but they are test WU's so they may have some debug functions inbuilt in them. You will get a nice amount of credit for your finished AP WU's here. ;-) I hope this answers your question. Else there are several threads about this issue. :-) "I'm trying to maintain a shred of dignity in this world." - Me

Finished an Astropulse crunch. 940322137 309888091 3 Aug 2008 16:52:28 UTC 5 Aug 2008 23:41:36 UTC Over Success Done 168,830.40 719.06 0.00 719.06 credits requested 0.00 credits given That was alot of CPU time to get squat. :-( Next time I see an astropulse work item, I'll be sure to cancel/abort it.

I would bet that they will be going back through and fixing these type of errors as there is something wrong on the AP validators.

Yeah I would hope so, I'm crunching one now and I have another one in addition to the Seti WU's and the Rosetta WU's that I do. It's been working on this one for nearly 8 hours and It has about 12 hours and 46 minutes to go, Maybe. At least the app_info.xml file I made is working good for both the Optimized XP x64 Seti app and the AP app that I downloaded, So far so good. :D Savoir-Faire is everywhere!

Why do I get the following error on all astropulse files? You get that error message if you install the Astropulse application yourself (perhaps to run alongside an optimised SETI application), and something goes wrong with the file download for the Astropulse program files. Check that you have all three of these files in your project directory, and that they are all the correct size. astropulse_4.35_windows_intelx86.exe .... 452 KB (462,848 bytes) ap_graphics_4.35_windows_intelx86.exe ... 288 KB (294,912 bytes) libfftw3f-3-1-1a_upx.dll ................ 438 KB (448,600 bytes) ID: 794515 · |

Finished an Astropulse crunch. It was posted in Technical News a couple days ago that there's a problem with the Astropulse-validator giving zero credit, but users will be credited manually for their work.

Well, I've got to disable AstroPulse on my main box. So far, every AstroPulse WU has failed out after 2-8 hours of work. (See 946111958, 945705757, 943747957 for examples.) And the WU output doesn't give enough information to let me understand why. My current suspicion is RAM, but it surprises me that I haven't noticed any big problem with MB WU's. And I've never had any problems with any other application on the system. Anybody with any suggestions? I have saved a few of the dump files that would have been sent to Microsoft. I just don't have access to Visual Studio to evaluate them. Yeah, I'm dropping the OC, but it's definitely not "bleeding edge" OC either. ;-) ID: 794558 · |

I noticed that Astropulse was downloaded and started automatically at the begining of the week with one work unit that should be taking approx 111hrs. However, after a few days we have CPU time of 94.5 hrs but still 60 hrs to go!!!! Now I'm no rainman but my math tells me something just don't add up here... 111 - 94.5 should be around... say... oh... let me see now... 16.5... which is way, way different to the 60 hrs still to go. At this rate not only will I never make the report deadline and therefore not get any credit, I just don't think this will ever end... Anybody else having this problem or has any idea what is going on and why?????? What the ................ Is that really .......... It can't be ............. no... NO... NO... NOOOOOO aaaaaAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHH ID: 794564 · |

wuid=310493783 That's odd. Claggy and I used to get these all the time in early testing, but I haven't seen one since 23 October 2007 (2716 Beta tasks ago - took some finding! Thought to be fair, most of those are MB, not AP). At that time, we were testing v4.19 I've only ever seen them on my Vista box, which is consistent as that's what you're using. And my Vista box is the dual Xeon Dell Precision Workstation 490, which is pretty much insulated against errors arising from overclocking (you can't) or overheating - even the RAM has its own special fan. I see your wingmate has errored out as well, but for a different reason. Let's keep an eye on the resends, and see if there's anything odd about the data. In the meantime, I'll report it at Beta.

I noticed that Astropulse was downloaded and started automatically at the begining of the week with one work unit that should be taking approx 111hrs. Welcome to the forums... A quick answer to your problem is in the Astropulse FAQ: How long does an Astropulse workunit take to run? The overclocked Q6600s are doing them in 40-80 hours, so your run time is not out of the ordinary. Let it crunch, and see what happens... Clk2HlpSetiCty:::PayIt4ward
