Well, I just achieved my 100 hours, which was my 1st priority. I will abort and reset (if necessary) the completed tasks I have. If/when the project gets its act together, I'll be back.

Over night, I had 4 of these tasks cancelled by server.

FWIW, the first task I received completed successfully.

Since the original task, I have received several more, with no giant file to download again. Then I got a task for the same machine, and it is downloading another beast of a file, veeeery slowly. 4.5 hours so far, and only 29% complete. BOINCtasks says it 9.71KBps. Ouch.


A Follow-up: The d/l seems to stall eventually. But going into Boinc and turning off/on networking seems to restart the d/l at a reasonable pace, and be done in a matter of minutes in stead of hours.

This project need to get their networking in order.

And the next one - workunit 27113095, created 15:43:59 UTC - already has the fix in place. Kudos to whoever was watching our conversation here.

It's also running a lot slower - nearly two minutes for each 2.5% step - so hopefully we're starting to get some real science done.


Did the fix require the whole app to be re-downloaded? Please say no...

My task took 9.5 hours to download, and ran for 8 minutes. Of those 8 minutes, the first several minutes showed zero load on the GPU. I assume it was unpacking the task then. So it really ran for only about 5 minutes on the GPU.

The tasks aren't due until Dec 2. So I will wait to try this until just before they are late, hoping the crew issue will be fixed before that.

Instructions for working round the 'expired certificate'problem at GPUGrid.



I followed the instructions (and thanks for posting that!), and it worked to get the files uploaded. But the task will not report. I have this same problem across 3 different machines. I get the following:

131 GPUGRID 11/28/2021 7:18:52 AM update requested by user
135 GPUGRID 11/28/2021 7:19:01 AM [sched_op] Fetching master file
136 GPUGRID 11/28/2021 7:19:01 AM Fetching scheduler list

138 GPUGRID 11/28/2021 7:19:03 AM [sched_op] Reason: 52 consecutive failures fetching scheduler list

FWIW, I did update the "<scheduler_url>" line as instructed.

Never.
