Topic 196806

Having just past the 5M mark i was thinking Boinc / Ubuntu / E@H was working like a well oiled machine....this morning the GPUs are now cooler than they should be.

I suspect a hard restart caused by unplugging my USB keyboard (yes i know better now) ....

I find yesterday´s BRP4 tasks ready to be uploaded are stuck giving the above error. GW tasks are ok and running as normal, so i´m pretty certain it is a local file problem.

Here is the message log-

...and these repeat


I´m thinking a reset the project but that will probably lose the 25 WU completed...

Suggestions welcome.

BOINC thinks it's supposed be be uploading files with some content in them, but they're turning out to be empty or missing, presumably because of the crash.

I would turn to the Transfers tab in BOINC Manager, and abort the transfers for p2030.20120517.G43.98-01.62.C.b4s0g0.00000_1744_1_2 and p2030.20120517.G43.98-01.62.C.b4s0g0.00000_1744_1_3.

You may find that you then get errors for _4, _5, _6 and _7: keep aborting any file transfer reported as "EOF on socket read" (those jobs are toast already), and you might be able to salvage the rest.

Yep that did the trick, E@H

Yep that did the trick, E@H is now warming my GPUs.
