Wow... 6 in a row?? All with the same error. Anyone?

I stopped BOINC already, restarted it, did a reboot. Or am I getting the bad batch on purpose? ;)

edit: 8 in a row now. Einstein is at No New Work until I figure out what's happening here. No need to blow through the other 8 units.

Jord,

Maybe time to consider backing off that 5.3.6 to an approved client?

Why? It's an alpha client, I

Why? It's an alpha client, I am an alpha tester.

Besides, everything worked fine until the first Albert crashed early this morning. Check the rest of the list. Seti, Seti Beta, uFluids and Primegrid have no problem either. It's only these Albert results which want to address the top of my memory all of a sudden. They blink out as soon as they start.

Jord,

I'd forgotten that you're doing alpha work, sorry. Thank you for the sacrifices in the name of progress.

Or, maybe you should start using graphics. ;-)

I have some observations (but no idea what the problem is). I noticed that all but the first WU failed immediately (never even got to the "No usable checkpoint . . ." stage). Makes me wonder if there is a residual value from the first unit somewhere in Albert or BOINC that needs to be reset. Also, the other result (which I pointed to in my previous post here) was an isolated single failure (and it was under BOINC 5.2.13).

I did a full system shutdown.

I did a full system shutdown.
Waited a minute.
Rebooted.
Logged on to Windows.
Opened Boinc Manager (boinc is a service).
Allowed work from Einstein.

But:

Yep: Maximum daily WU quota per CPU: 7/day

Oh well. :-D

Wasn't there a quota of 16, though? I know I spoiled 8...

Given the way you count, it may already be Friday the 13th where you are (or maybe it's only Wednesday the 11th). :)

BTW: Have you thought about e-mailing your "std*" files to Walt yet? He'll probably want to look at them. Here is an old message with some instructions on how to do that.

I've contacted Bruce on it.

I've contacted Bruce on it. He's very excited. I think he complimented me: "a reproducible bug from a BOINC expert and all-around computer geek!". :-)

So now waiting for Walt to contact me.
