One thing to remember is almost ALL webpages are cached and only refreshed on a periodic basis, some by the minute, some by the hour and some by the day or week. There is no way to tell unless you check and notice a change, or they come out and actually tell us.


It's written on the server status when it was updated the last time.


Those WORDS were in the way, THANKS now I can SEE!!!

This download problem is still happening, this one file is just over 4MB & keeps getting stuck & retries after a couple of KB over & over.

Some larger files download o.k. others don't.

I'm not having any problems with my other projects JUST ROSETTA.

the messages last week were similar but tasks were obviously different..is this a known issue or has something somehow changed that is causing this? thanks in advance for any help.

Hi all,

I happen to have this problem now for several weeks and have reset several times.

This is most annoying and I hope someone will start soon to look into that.

Greetings,
I have received 13 client error/compute error in the last three days. Had only 2 or 3 in the previous 5 days. At least one wingman errored the same wu. Have no other errors in other projects (6).

Just so you know.

Apparently so have ALOT of other people too!! It could be as simple as a bad batch or a Server side problem. HOPEFULLY Rosetta is working on it and NOT just watching!!

I have 36 error out of 176 WU's, it started on April 10. However it seems that today the error rate is very high.
Don't expect anything, we have to go through this batch.

Message 75392 - Posted: 20 Apr 2013, 3:47:49 UTC - in response to Message 75360.  

One thing seems apparent -- the Cryo work units have a nasty tendency to yield computation errors. I wish I could configure the client to avoid them. Better yet, I wish the project folks would stop making them generally available until the problem is dealt with at the project level. Those units go computation errors with numerous different computers -- where no other project is kicking up the errors -- so it seems reasonably clear that the problem is a project specific and work unit class specific issue.

AMEN TO THAT!! What I WISH Rosetta had, like MOST other Boinc Projects DO HAVE, is a way to select which tasks I want and which I don't want!! I abort EVERY cryo unit I see but they are insidious!! I abort 5 and upon the update they send me 3 more, I abort those and then send me even more!! It is frustrating and causing me to rethink my contribution to Rosie right now!!!

And you will notice that NONE of the project guys read these threads and I do mean NONE!!! Saw on the download tab that YF Song was attached to the cyro units, surprised he has not shown up here, certainly the results they are getting back should be telling them something is wrong with the tasks, but that does not seem to be the case.

These must work for some people, the POTD got one done:
Apr 20, 2013
Predictor of the day: Congratulations to Pat McGee for predicting the lowest energy structure for workunit cryo_bf__chain_J_subrun_002_SAVE_ALL_OUT__78436_0


I have not been seeing any cryo's, but finally got one, so suspended other tasks to go run it, it failed for me too. Had already failed for wingman too.

I'll just offer the comment on the question of why they do not let you select the work you wish to do, they are working a constant mix of various types of work, and so if such a choice existed, there would quickly be 100 choices. To enable such a thing would tax the scheduler to no end.

In the end, I believe I'm correct in saying that so long as the tasks complete normally, you don't so much need such a choice.

I found I had two other cryo tasks, all failed. One had a successful wingman. It was a MAC. Looks like the POTD only has a MAC as well.

OK folks thanks for the confirmation -- what I find I do is manually go in an 'pre-abort' the cryo's before they start -- but it is a fair amount of intervention and some bad ones slip by. It wouldn't be so bad if they failed quickly, but some go computation error after a couple of hours of wasted processing time.

I would very much like it if the project folks got on this and stopped generating them until they figured out what the problem is on the project side of things.

I gad a cryo error also, when it had nearly finished the 12 hours I allow for such workunits.

I noticed earlier, that after running for 5 hours, it had not written any checkpoints at all.

Indeed -- the problem of course is that while I periodically ferret out ALL Cryo units I have, not only does that not stop me from getting new ones, but also the ones I abort simply go back into the queue for future downloads.

I realize that some of the cryo workunits are OK -- but it seems to me that it is incumbent on the project folks to simply stop these from going out at the project level and debug them there.

There are no doubt plenty of folks running Rosetta in a 'no attention mode' - and they are really wasting CPU cycles here.

And I think THAT is a major part of what could be Rosetta downfall, they simply don't manage their project well and just keep on keeping on despite the problems they are having. I found TEN cryo units this morning on ONE machine, one had errored out and I aborted the rest!! I have already turned a different machine off, as in NO NEW TASKS, and will move on to Poem with it. Two other machines are now on Eon with Malaria as backups! I am getting VERY tired aborting cryo units or being asleep and having them error out!!! I only have Windows machines, so it seems they will NEVER work for me!!
