Thanks for your reply.

I unhid my computer. Sorry for the inconvenience.

In computing preferences, what is your switch between tasks time?
That can also affect your ability to get work done on time.

Is Einstein CPU or GPU or both for you?
I am running GPU and the tasks are around 30 mins, but as you know, sometimes they bring out longer stuff.
Are you doing anything else in the background non BOINC? Such as FAH or anything else requiring CPU time?

Hello,

I received Rosetta today for the first time in several weeks. It appears all is well now. My switch timing is 60 minutes for all of the tasks. This is the first time have run into problems with Rosetta in years. Happy that it now seems to be working.

You were just lucky to get some Rosetta 4.20 work as it was released.
In the time between now & when you last got work there has been plenty of Python work available, but as you haven't taken any notice of what i posted about your cache resulting in missed deadlines & what you need to do to get more Python work, you will soon be out of work again.

Not exactly Grant, look at his machines.
#1 is 4.2 and #2 is running python.
The error tasks were invalid also by the wingman for the exact same reason, memory address error.
So he has completed 6 pythons so far one #2 and bombed 3 due to errors in the task, since the wingman also suffered the same failure.

So let him continue, it looks like he has the systems dialed in.

Johndad, Your one machine will run out of work soon when all the 4.2 tasks are used up in your system.
Then you will be back to no work. So you might configure that machine to accept python or it goes idle.
That or it just does other project work until the next batch of 4.2 comes.
As we have said, 4.2 is very sporadic and disappears very fast.

The error tasks were invalid also by the wingman for the exact same reason, memory address error.

Those are the most recent Tasks. The pervious ones (that we could see at the time) all errored out due to missing the deadline.
As the work flows, the cache will re-fill & deadlines will be missed, over & over again. Enough Python errors, and you're black listed.

And that's what is annoying. Errors caused by their incompetentence count against us. At least we can come back. They should exclude tasks that error out on two systems.

I just installed Boinc and added rosetta@home on a brand new laptop and I get this message:

Rosetta@home: Notice from server
VirtualBox jobs require hardware acceleration support. Your processor does not support the required instruction set.

This is brand new laptop with i7 processor. How would it not support hardware acceleration? Is it that the processor is such a new model that is not recognized? How do I fix this?

What file in pythons is the equivalent of STDERR?
Is that in the boinc_xxxx folder then the logs folder and the Vbox file or the Vbox Hardening?

I had a task that I just killed that ran 1 day and I think 42 mins and got to 99.41% complete.
In Vbox file I saw "interupts" increasing in number and wondered what that was about as I do not see that in a suspended task (shutting down for the night) that I looked at.

I was trying to find out where if any errors occurred during its time running, but I could not see anything recognizable, just interupts.

Try to find in google how to enable virtualization on your laptop model.
enable hardware virtualization [laptop model here]

Virtualisation needs to be enabled in the BIOS, and Windows HyperV must be disabled in Windows programs & settings.
And it'd be worth running the BOINC Benchmarks on that system so when you do get some work, you also get more than a token amount of Credit for it.

Run “bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off” to disable hypervisor

Looks like they fixed the problem with those Tasks that ran OK on LINUX, but crashed & burned in seconds on Windows.
Now they fail on all systems.

I am receiving the error "Error in simple_cycpcp_predict app read_sequence() function! The minimum number of residues for a cyclic peptide is 4. (GenKIC requires three residues, plus a fourth to serve as an anchor).

The minimum number of residues for a cyclic peptide is 4.

Nowadays you need a specialist for nearly everything.
They obviously don't have a can-count-to-4-specialist on their payroll.

Getting the same thing here, lots of preetham_gen tasks with this issue atm.

I haven't seen a working (on Windows) Rosetta 4.20 in ages.

These preetham tasks appear to have problems:

Got the same thing: https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/result.php?resultid=1477896014

Every single one failing, a thousand of them on 7 different computers.

Until today, 98% of the 4.2s worked.

I am not sure if this is the same issue, but om both my M1 Macs I get work units offered, the download is almost nothing, (0.57Kb I saw once) and then I get once the tasks start "Computational Error" on all work units. I have stopped fetching new units for now.
