My computer is having problems to complete the calculation works.
The system becomes unestable about four hours of calculation, and all the works finish with a 'calculation error' validation.

I don't know wat is happening. Any idea about it?.

Many thanks.


Sounds like overheating/inadequate cooling - cooling fins or vents may have become clogged with dust.

But better to post in the general 'Problems' area and ask for help there, not in this special thread reserved for "validate errors" - which are different from general "calculation errors".

There's basically a bunch of file read errors indicated on stderr. I note that you're running an Atom which suggests that you have a 'handbag' size computer. I had one of those, terrible for cooling. To get it to crunch at all, as it got quite hot, I had to open it up and sit it like an upside-down 'V' on the bench. Even a laptop cooling pad didn't help much ....

Cheers, Mike.

To those who have recently

To those who have recently posted their problems in this 'special purpose' thread and in particular to any others who have a problem that is not precisely 'Validate error' and who might think that this would be a good place to post, the following comments are precisely for you.

A 'Validate error' is nothing to do with why your tasks may be suffering 'compute errors' or why any of your tasks are being marked as 'Invalid'. A 'Validate error' is what you will see if there is a server side problem with the program (daemon) that is attempting to perform the validation process. This special purpose thread is therefore just to allow users to highlight examples of situations where there seems to be a problem with the validator daemon. Like this one for example, where one member of the quorum is clearly marked 'Validate error'. As these problems are server side, it is important that they be brought to the attention of the Devs, so that server side adjustments can be considered, if necessary. Obviously problems occurring on your own machine, which only you can fix, shouldn't be documented in this particular thread.

If any task of yours is shown with any other status information (even just the word 'Invalid'), it is NOT something that should be posted in this thread. Please start your own thread, with a properly informative title, and describe your error as fully as you can, thank you.

Cheers,
Gary.

Really? I had no problems until two weeks ago.

I'll try to solve the cooling problem. But I will investigate a little more...

Most of my CUDA-results are

Most of my CUDA-results are running into validate errors also since a few days (all of type BRP3cuda32).
