Basically, the emulated operating system encountered an error and didn't report what it was. It then started waiting for another command, but the task didn't have any, so it did almost nothing for a few hours.

Have the programmers not heard of something called "timeout"?

OLDER? Really? Ryzen 3700x here, barely 2 years old in my system.

ROTFPMSL at your computer being insulted.

Project doesn't give a S--- about failures. As long as they get the data somehow from someone and if its just one task somewhere that dies...oh well.

There's a lot less pythons in the queue than there was. Either we've crunched them way faster than I thought we would, or they've been deleting some, or many have failed. Perhaps the next batch will have improvements.

<-- what is the source of these pythons tasks and has anybody ever seen the output from them?

The machine I'm trying to run python on keeps getting banned, despite completing most of them successfully. Is there ever an end to problems here?

And yes I know they have feelings, that's why I buy "broken" GPUs on Ebay and try to get them to do something. Actually that's probably cruel as the poor things thought they'd retired.

Probably your GPU's are complaining loudly and the RAH server is taking sympathy.
Maybe you insulted it to many times?
Or your just lucky 13.

I've lost a Radeon 6990 and a cockatiel in the last couple of days, I'm not happy. Things should be made to last forever.

Note that it would then take forever to determine if they actually last forever or not.

Forever is not a fixed time. It could be 5 times longer than normal for example.

You know those McDonald's trackers for your table? (well here in EU we have them)
I looked at the underside last night, made in Thailand assembled in China.
And since most stuff these days is or was made in China, its cheap and throw away.
The GPU mfg's would not be in business if their cards lasted forever.
Cars used to last forever, but the "forever" went away in the 80s I think when we switched over to make things as cheap as possible and charge regular price to make more profit and get the consumer to buy more.

Damn, closed browser after checking preview thinking I'd posted it, so the following is shorter as I'm lazy.

What's a McD tracker? I'm the UK but rarely go there. Cars last me 20 years now, used to be 10. GPUs get replaced for the latest game. If the old one keeps value, those gamers have more money to buy the new one. If something breaks you don't buy from the same make again and write a nasty review, so making shit quality stuff harms your company.

Why am I getting a notice "Waiting to contact project servers"?

Why am I getting a notice "Waiting to contact project servers"?

No idea.
In the Advanced view of BOINC Manager, select the Projects tab, select Rosetta & click on Update.
Then check in Tools, Event log & see what messages are there.

I've got one weird Python task that's been running now for 26hrs, but it is using the CPU 25.5hrs and has checkpointed regularly - most recently 8 minutes ago.
I've got no idea why it won't end itself.
Does the watchdog no longer work?

Sorry, I didn't see this, but neither do I know what .out file I should look at, nor what slot it was running in, nor know if or how it might've changed.
Task aborted now - I assume the info has gone now?

No error I can spot before this line, then several:

Hypervisor System Log:

However, these can be due to the abort.

It may be a task that ran much longer than expected, without anything going wrong. If so, just letting it run enough longer would have let it finish.

Task aborted now - I assume the info has gone now?

To find the slot number click on the task in the tasks column, them on properties.

The info is gone shortly after the output files are uploaded and the task is reported as finished.

The probable change to look for is any change to the dates and size of the .out file.

If there is more than out .out file in the slot directory, look for changes in the dates or size in all of them.

you can copy out file twice waiting several minutes between copies and then compare two copies with winmerge .

Looks like Rosetta 4.2 just got a batch of `miniprotein in , grab them while they iz hot
front page job que went up by millions .
