1) Message boards : Number crunching : What Happened ??? (Message 58136) Posted 22 Apr 2018 by Kevin Post: I have now suspended my SAM50 which is the WU with trickle upload problems. SAS50 as well. The trickles that were stuck seem to have unstuck themselves, I have checked the event log and they have uploaded and the task has reported. Trickles are now even showing on the tasks pages and so is the finished task. And thats all happened on a Sunday!!! I shall now resume crunching the suspended WU's.

3) Message boards : Number crunching : What Happened ??? (Message 58127) Posted 21 Apr 2018 by Kevin Post: Is any one else having a problem with trickles going through? I have 2GB waiting and the status page shows everything green. Status page is out of date - Task data as of 1 Apr 2018, 13:38:39 UTC I have got stuck trickles and I have also had another task report trickles and report on completion.
4) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit (Message 56310) Posted 29 May 2017 by Kevin Post: I don't know about those that finished during the outage. I am assuming the zips have all uploaded so the work will be safe. I don't know about credit. #abovemypaygrade finally gave up waiting, detached and re-attached, all of those that lost zips - became unfinished have been reallocated to other users:-(

7) Message boards : Number crunching : Server Problem Fixed (Message 56136) Posted 4 May 2017 by Kevin Post: I've had one stuck downloading for a couple of days, and its a _1 A couple of the servers have gone from the server status page so maybe they are still sorting things out.
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Server Problem Fixed (Message 56126) Posted 3 May 2017 by Kevin Post: Not overly worried about this as the information has always been retrieved and sorted eventually in the past. I know this is frustrating for those who keep a close tally on credits however. Not worried about credit, it should turn up eventually, it was just a gentle hint that something may need a quick look at:-) Apart from that 3 of them are batch 561 which some were having problems with.
9) Message boards : Number crunching : Server Problem Fixed (Message 56124) Posted 3 May 2017 by Kevin Post: My last task that reported after the server came back on line is showing as completed. https://www.cpdn.org/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=20340872 3 tasks that finished while the backup server was running and were showing as completed have lost their trickles and are now showing as in progress. https://www.cpdn.org/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=20350265 https://www.cpdn.org/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=20350827 https://www.cpdn.org/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=20345787 The trickles reported in the last task were reported before sever went down.

11) Message boards : Number crunching : Model uploaded/finished/reported, but still in progress on the web (Message 55583) Posted 25 Jan 2017 by Kevin Post: abort the other WU The problem is suspected to be something to do with the server, so if you abort that task, we'll never know what would have happened to it. That would be https://www.cpdn.org/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=20118325 which has not been started. If I run the above WU it will cost about a week with no guarantee that It will be completed properly. The almost completed WU I will allow to finish later tonight, The reason I have suspended it was so that if you wanted copies of any of the files that are deleted after completion then they are available now and can be copied and e-mailed to wherever required.
12) Message boards : Number crunching : Model uploaded/finished/reported, but still in progress on the web (Message 55579) Posted 25 Jan 2017 by Kevin Post: Got another one:-( https://www.cpdn.org/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=20117981 I have suspended the WU at 99.700%, so still have files on computer. I have not looked at the files in the CPND folder, I do not know what is worth looking at anyway. But looking at boinc manager 'statistics' there was no communication between my machine and CPND since the 23rd, the date of the last trickle, I have another WU suspended not yet started so this machine would not be asking for work. It looks as if for some reason the WU is either not generating the trickles or boinc is not sending them and not showing them as unsent. I am going to leave everything as is until early evening, then I shall allow that WU to complete, abort the other WU and detach and re-attach to try to clear this problem. Les, this could be the reason that nothing is showing up on the server logs.

17) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit (Message 55367) Posted 15 Dec 2016 by Kevin Post: What's left may need to be accepted, even if not understood. But who knows, some more tweaking more occur in the future. OK
18) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit (Message 55360) Posted 15 Dec 2016 by Kevin Post: PS If you mean something else, please say so. I don't always think beyond the obvious (to me), these days. :( I was refuring to the selection filter lines above and below the results table. State: All (637) · In progress (4) · Validation pending (413) · Validation inconclusive (0) · Valid (0) · Invalid (81) · Error (139) It seems that both the validation pending filter and the invalid filter produce lists of completed work units, valid produces zero results. If the pending and invalid results could be combined and renamed completed or valid it would look better. It might also be handy for some if the "error" results could be split into 2 separate lists, those that failed before the first trickle and those that failed later in processing. Sorry, the written word is not my best means of communication.
19) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit (Message 55358) Posted 14 Dec 2016 by Kevin Post: It's on the individual pages for each model. Although it used to also appear on the page listing all tasks. I guess this is all part of the new look. There's a few things that I'm going to ask about, so I'll add that to the list. The table is looking better now, but the "state" row could do with tidying up. Both validation pending and invalid seem to be seem to be valid and do we need validation inconclusive?
20) Message boards : Number crunching : Error while computing (Message 54575) Posted 26 Jul 2016 by Kevin Post: I've had a couple of pop-ups about Windows having a problem. I could still get at the BOINC menus though, so I left the message alone, and uploaded all of the files, THEN clicked on the message. I forget what happened then. Another message? This was on the Linux machine running Wine. I am running Windows Vista, the pop up was from windows,I could still access boinc but the file in question was still being shown as status as running but it was also showing progress at 100% and time to finish as ---. All zips were uploaded and the 4 files plus the afr that I processed after re-loading CPND have all finished as client error, all have now been granted the same credit as completed work units. It looks as if the program failed to shut down the work unit or tell it to upload before it shut itself down. I have since done a couple of wah2 sucessfully.
