This might or might not be a problem at all, not quit sure. At least 6 or 7 times a day, in the \'messages\' portion of BOINC, the model states that it restarts w/a \'message timeout\' error. Pretty sure it shouldn\'t have to restart that many times per day and I also don\'t see anything uploading to the server for at least a month. The model itself has about 40% completed however... If anyone\'s had this issue, please let me know. Thanks |

Is anything else happening on the PC when that happens, for example, something using 100% of CPU time for a while? I'm a volunteer and my views are my own. News and Announcements and FAQ |

It seems to pretty much happen when the PC\'s idle. No screensaver or power saving mode is ever applied. Just a run-of-the-mill Dell PC, no overclocking or anything done. I set it up on another Dell almost identical, and there\'s very few restarts, plus it at least uploads a trickle a few times a month. This current PC hasn\'t uploaded since Jul. 1st. |

Please copy 20 lines or so from the Messages tab, and paste them here. Start from well before a timeout message, and continue until well after, so that we can get an idea of what is happening. Backups: Here |

One additional question ... which firewall do you use? I noticed a few days ago that someone was getting the same messages in their log, and they said there was a problem with the firewall at the time. I'm a volunteer and my views are my own. News and Announcements and FAQ |

Here\'s what little content I currently have in the mess. folder. I\'ve restarted it recently and apparently that resets the log. Also, I\'ve gotten rid of all software firewalls, the only thing I use is a common linksys WRT54G broadband router. Can\'t see it causing a model restart...is it an internal computation restart or something to do w/the network connection? I\"ll try to post more logs a week or so down the road.

OK, that\'s enough to go on. At least for someone who has seen it before, which isn\'t me. For future reference, all of the logs are archived in the BOINC folder: stdoutdae.txt contains ALL of the messages, and stderrdae.txt contains only the error messages. Backups: Here |

BUFFIN: Read Failed: Permission denied Must confess I don\'t know what this means but it makes me wonder what you may have done with the machine, and/or to the boinc/CPDN folder, prior to this incident. This isn\'t likely to be helpful, but it seems to relate to the \'permissions\' thing: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/200501/msg00006.html "We have met the enemy and he is us." -- Pogo Greetings from coastal Washington state, the scenic US Pacific Northwest. |

BUFFIN: Read Failed: Permission denied Have a look in the directory C:\\Program Files\\BOINC\\projects\\climateprediction.net\\hadcm3ohe_27qb_05751669_0\\dataout. Does it have any zero length files or more than one *.pd* file? That would point towards a known (but very rare) problem that affected 5.15 (caused by shutting down BOINC in the small window between end of year post-processing and the next checkpoint).
