Topic 193731

Is it just me or is there a problem with the file.
I just reset the project and deleted all files in the einstein folder after finishing all wu's with computation errors.
But i always get the same message

Thank you for any help. Seti is working without problems.

Just reached the daily quota, have to wait until tomorrow for any tests.

Hmmmm....

I haven't noticed any problems with the communications to and from the project lately.

I did notice when looking over the series of failures for your host that they seemed to start off with a CRC sanity check failure when restarting from checkpoints. The rest have been MD5 hash failures on the input files.

This might indicate a RAM, Hard Drive, or other hardware related problem on your host.

Might not be a bad idea to give it a general maintenance and diagnostic run.

HTH,

Thank you Alinator, I just

Thank you Alinator,

I just realized that my system is crunching again after downloding an other inputfile during the night.
I realy don't know what was wrong yesterday, no changes are made on the system.

Now I wait until the new wu's are validated.

Glad to here your host is

Glad to here your host is back in the game.

Thinking about it some more and reviewing my logs, I remembered that one of my hosts which runs EAH primarily drew a couple of tasks from Leiden around the middle of last week.

When I checked the BOINC logs at the time, I noticed there there were a couple of brief periods where the EAH scheduler and UL/DL servers weren't available.

In my case it didn't cause any compute errors or other anomalies on my host, but that might have had something to do with your event.
