21) Message boards : Number crunching : Why only one task running at the same time with Rosetta Python project 1.03 VBOX64 ? (Message 103607) Posted 30 Nov 2021 by Jonathan Post: I checked the RAM setting in the running VM and it was set at 6144Mb. (6Gb). There may be different sizes of VMs by the project. We really don't know what Rosetta@home has planned to fit inside the Python / VirtualBox tasks. They may have ran some VM images elsewhere and 6 - 8 Gb may have been needed.

22) Message boards : Number crunching : Why only one task running at the same time with Rosetta Python project 1.03 VBOX64 ? (Message 103604) Posted 30 Nov 2021 by Jonathan Post: The two computers listed under your name have 16Gb of RAM. The Virtual Box version of the app is using about 6Gb of RAM for the virtual machine, one cpu. If you don't need Virtual Box for any other Boinc projects, you can uninstall it and run just regular Boinc projects fine.
23) Message boards : Number crunching : Linux VirtualBox python tasks not registering with vboxmanager (Message 103601) Posted 30 Nov 2021 by Jonathan Post: I am on Windows 10. I am able to list running Boinc VMs using the VBoxManage commands. Do you have to be part of a user group or certain user on Linux to see the VMs? The stuck tasks will restart after 24 hours. You would have to check the error logs in Boinc to see why they got stuck. The vbox wrapper losing communication is a common problem, at least on Windows machines.
24) Message boards : Number crunching : 12 CPU WUs (Message 97734) Posted 27 Jun 2020 by Jonathan Post: ProDigit, are you sure you don't have an 'app_config.xml' created? You talk about it in a previous thread. https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=13984#96697
25) Message boards : Number crunching : 2nd shortage looming? (Message 96284) Posted 9 May 2020 by Jonathan Post: Has Rosetta ever had a shortage during a Pentathlon?
26) Message boards : Number crunching : Rosetta 4.0+ (Message 96268) Posted 8 May 2020 by Jonathan Post: Try exiting boinc and all tasks. Edit your Boinc preferences on the project to use 8 cpus out of 24. Roughly 33%. Start up Boinc.
27) Message boards : Number crunching : Merge computers (Message 96266) Posted 8 May 2020 by Jonathan Post: I am hoping that is enough info for someone from the project to look into your computers. They may be able to populate the missing CPU info and allow you to merge them. I don't know what other info is tied to each computer on the back end that allow or doesn't allow merging.
28) Message boards : Number crunching : Merge computers (Message 96253) Posted 7 May 2020 by Jonathan Post: All your computers report as "hidden". Your problems has been solved (JOKE) You could have at least posted links to the computers in question.
29) Message boards : Number crunching : screensaver crashing computer (Message 95855) Posted 2 May 2020 by Jonathan Post: Are you only running Rosetta or are there other projects involved?
30) Questions and Answers : Wish list : Improve the Notice from server: "Rosetta needs xxxxxMB more disk space." (Message 95334) Posted 25 Apr 2020 by Jonathan Post: An easy fix would be to divide up your projects by computer. One computer runs Rosetta, another runs a second project, etc. You can always add a second project with resource set to zero for a back up in case the primary project runs out of work units or problems. I noticed you are on Linux. Is the partition where Boinc is storing its files small? Linux may not treat the entire hard disk as one pool but multiple smaller ones. Check your free space per partition?
31) Message boards : Number crunching : Work done - no "pay" for it (Message 95332) Posted 25 Apr 2020 by Jonathan Post: What do you have set for your computing preferences? How much RAM are you allowing to be used? The tasks should have just went into 'waiting for memory'
32) Message boards : Number crunching : minirosetta_database directory in slot (Message 95219) Posted 23 Apr 2020 by Jonathan Post: Isn't this issue a BOINC problem rather than Rosetta problem? That is just the structure BOINC does.
33) Message boards : Number crunching : Validation errors (Message 95182) Posted 23 Apr 2020 by Jonathan Post: All three show "errors WU cancelled" on the workunits page of those tasks
34) Message boards : Number crunching : Tells us your thoughts on granting credit for large protein, long-running tasks (Message 94962) Posted 20 Apr 2020 by Jonathan Post: Fixed link for sangaku https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=13791
35) Message boards : Number crunching : Problems and Technical Issues with Rosetta@home (Message 92876) Posted 1 Apr 2020 by Jonathan Post: I just exit Boinc Manager and check the box for stopping all running Boinc tasks. FILE -> Exit Boinc This will cleanly stop the tasks and when started again, they take off from the last checkpoints. If you are running Virtual Box tasks, give the computer a minute or two to save those tasks then you can power off or reboot.
36) Message boards : Number crunching : 8 points credit? (Message 92771) Posted 31 Mar 2020 by Jonathan Post: Low number of decoys and low number of attempts in logs
37) Questions and Answers : Preferences : Using Rosetta@Home with encrypted traffic (Message 92554) Posted 29 Mar 2020 by Jonathan Post: I don't think this project uses HTTPS for the communication. You can go to the actual BOINC forums and check there. I tried looking at all_projects_list.xml in PROGRAM DATA/BOINC on my windows pc and it looks like a few project use it. You can search for something like "url>https:" There is a listing for <url> and <web_url>. I am not sure what one is relevant. https://boinc.berkeley.edu/forum_index.php
38) Questions and Answers : Windows : What gives? (Message 89743) Posted 22 Oct 2018 by Jonathan Post: The account you posted on is showing "Rosetta@home member since 22 Oct 2018" and has no computers listed. Do you have multiple accounts?
39) Questions and Answers : Windows : Computer credits not updating on site (Message 87502) Posted 12 Oct 2017 by Jonathan Post: What computer? ID 3276678 is showing over 40k total credit. I am not sure if team credit transfers or not. Someone else will have to post about that.
40) Questions and Answers : Windows : Is my ISP blocking BOINC? (Message 87499) Posted 11 Oct 2017 by Jonathan Post: I know this is an older post but did you check the server status? Maybe the project was actually down at that time.
