Topic 196820

Some of my host are starting to show this MSG:

23/02/2013 05:51:24 | Einstein@Home | update requested by user
23/02/2013 05:51:29 | Einstein@Home | Sending scheduler request: Requested by user.
23/02/2013 05:51:29 | Einstein@Home | Not requesting tasks: some download is stalled
23/02/2013 05:51:31 | Einstein@Home | Scheduler request completed

I check and they have some SETI WU ready to UL but no E@H or SETI WU DL stalled, anyone knows a way to fix this? No E@H work is DL due this problem.

Can´t DL nothing.

Another "wierd" thing is happening here, some E@H WU simply don´t start to DL to, an example:

http://einsteinathome.org/task/347928210

You could se more examples, just go to my WU and see all the "aborted" ones.

The only way i found to fix that is by cancelling the WU, but that of course is not a good solution and requires a lot of babysitting.

I belive that all related to the large number of SETI WU waiting for DL due the power outage, maybe that mess with the client scheduler control or something else. But is spected to one project did not interfeare with the other in Boinc.

To restart to get work after that i need to completely exit the boinc and restart all again. But sometimes after that 3 to 5 E@H WU are DL (i have multiple GPU hosts) and one never start the DL, so the cicle repeats, and the DL of new WU after that is stoped.

Please some help.

Is this happening on all your pc's or just one or two of them? If just one or two then try going into the Bo9inc Manager, down by the clock and then into the Projects tab, select Einstein and then click Reset Project on the left. This will force Einstein to re-download all the Project files and maybe even the workunits too.

If most of your pc's then perhaps you could try Suspending Seti and see if Einstein then downloads the files okay. That would eliminate any Seti problems from interfering.

I have EINSTEIN as backup in

I have EINSTEIN as backup in some of my hosts and even with a lot of SETI WUs beeing stalled they are not having any kind of issue to get work from here...

To make it more specific, in those hosts EINSTEIN is set as backup through the use of a 0 resource share, and unlike you Im still using BOINC 6.10...
(as it is the last version with short backoffs)

I was out, just see the msg

I was out, just see the msg now.

First the problem happens in some of my hosts (at least 3 of them, the 3 fast ones, all with 690, not see something similar on the others hosts, coincidence?)

I try to reset the E@H and makes no diference, even try suspend SETI and nothing changes. The only way to bypass the problems is abort the DL and shutting off the Boinc and restart it. Then works fine for some time them one E@H WU simply don´t DL again and stops all request for new work.

I use 7.0.52 maybe that is the problem, the Boinc DL page was out when i try to DL an older version to try, will check again later.

Because that all the 3 hosts are running dry of any E@H.

Thanks for the help.

I belive is not, the answer to a request is a new WU (some times 3 or more) to DL, not a not work avaiable MSG, just one of the DL of that WU never start.

i think it's time all users

i think it's time all users contact the dean at Berkley Uni and demand that Seti@Home be taken of the Berkley Uni home page and it be replaced with Einsten@home .Seti is to unreliable and goes down to much .This means it looks bad for Brekley and new users can't even download Bionic i believe that it also causes small problems for the other progects .

Setiathome isn't down because

Setiathome isn't down because of Server problems, they are down because of Electrical Maintenance in their building:

Quote:
Lab-wide Power Outage This Weekend (Feb 22-24)
Once again we are going offline due to electrical repairs in our entire building. We plan to come down Friday afternoon (15:00 local time) and be back up by Sunday afternoon (12:00 local time). All SETI servers will be unreachable during that span.

oh so why is seti@home still

oh so why is seti@home still on the home page shorely it would have been better to change it to anther progect for the period of these maintenace problems and why did it go down only approx 24hrs after the tuesday maintence ? and then there was last weekend ? .It all boils down to bad mangement.If you are going to have big outtages then common cents would be to remove yourself from the home page during this time and allow new users to DOWNLOAD the bionic client .I'm getting tired of the reasons why it's down ,slow speeds ,web sites not being able to be accessed ,asked to donate when it's this unreliable.
