WHAT DOES TAKE FOR GRANTED MEAN?

The expression to take for granted means "to accept without question or objection," and often implies a lack of appreciation or gratitude. (E.g., "Many of us may take for granted the fact that we have access to clean drinking water.")

When it come to people, to take someone for granted means to take advantage of, show no appreciation for, or undervalue them.

I understand there was a storage issue earlier. But I think that was fixed(?).

So why is the site still unavailable intermittently throughout the day, every day? What is the problem?

Why is the number of tasks in progress dwindling? Are no new tasks being issued?

I was running 7.9.3, which is what was in the default repository for mint. It had the other problem, with only 20 credits per task.

Now I am running the version from ppa:costamagnagianfranco/boinc , which is version 7.16.14. This version had the permissions problem. The PrivateTmp=true change seems to have fixed the issue on the machines that have received work so far.

Interesting to learn that all linux installations do it as a service install. I thought that caused a problem with GPU crunching? Maybe that is only for windows? Or maybe I am thinking of something else? In any case, good to know.

Well sure. I meant a released version.

I just read through this whole thread, and I am still not clear what changes I need to make to fix the permissions error. FWIW, I have the regular BOINC installation, not a service installation.

Which file do I need to edit? What changed do I make to that file?

TIA!


Apply this modification:

Extracted from post by ServicEnginIC
(https://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=5204&nowrap=true#55988

I executed the stated command: sudo systemctl edit boinc-client.service And I added to the file the suggested lines: [Service] PrivateTmp=true


A reboot is recommended after applying this change. (Or at the least, restart the boinc-client service)


Thanks. I wan't sure that applied to my situation, since my installation is not a service installation. And those instructions included "service". I added the lines, assuming I figured out the editor correctly. I know only vi. Anyway, just waiting for new tasks to try out now.

they were working fine on your 2080ti system when you had 7.17.0. why change it?

but the issue you're having now looks like the same issue that richard was dealing with here: https://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=5204

that thread has the steps they took to fix it. it's a permissions issue.


That was a kludge. There is no such thing as 7.17.0. =;^) Once I verified that the newer version worked, I updated all my machines with the latest repository version, so it would be clean and updated going forward.

After upgrading all the BOINC clients, the tasks are erroring out. Ugh.

A second, identical machine, except it has dual RTX 1660 Ti cards, finally got some work. The tasks reported and were awarded the large credits. So that rules out the question WRT BOINC version. FWIW, that version of BOINC is the latest available from the repository.

So maybe it is due to interruptions after all, and I am just unaware? I am running some more tasks now, and will check again in the morning.
