1) Message boards : Number crunching : Lots of 'Exit Status 127' client errors from old 300MHz 128MB RAM machine (Message 43452) Posted 9 Jul 2007 by Trog Dog Post: Ah-hah! Thanks for the info and instructions, but when I run ldd on BOINC/projects/boinc.bakerlab.org_rosetta/rosetta_5.68_i686-pc-linux-gnu, I get "not a dynamic executable" as the output. Looking at your results you occassionally complete one or two wu's, then you have a string of errors, and the errors have changed from 193 to 127. It could be that your box is flaky, or maybe the small amount of memory is causing the command not found error. Is this box stable on any other project, and how big is the swap partition? Also what distro are you running?
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Linux, which one? (Message 43281) Posted 5 Jul 2007 by Trog Dog Post: As Katherine said grab yourself some Live CDs and see which one you like and that it recognises and works with all your hardware. Then check out its help pages and forums. If each of the above passes muster then install it to your harddrive - welcome to the club :)
3) Message boards : Number crunching : Lots of 'Exit Status 127' client errors from old 300MHz 128MB RAM machine (Message 43280) Posted 5 Jul 2007 by Trog Dog Post: I'm getting nothing but client errors (127) from one of my machines. The machine that's having problems is 300MHz, 128MB RAM. My other (better) machines do not have this problem. I'm using the Linux version of BOINC/Rosetta. What does an exit status of 127 mean? How can I fix this? Here's an example result page: http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/result.php?resultid=90582688 And the computer page: http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/show_host_detail.php?hostid=543179 G'day jmegner 127 errors are missing file/library errors. From a terminal CD into your Rossetta project directory and run ldd on the rosetta executable. Check the output for missing libraries. You'll then need to track down your distros packages that contain these libraries and install them. If you need this explained further just yell :) Cheers

The only thing I know is that China took over that area(I think it was during WW2). So tell me more about the people there. I'm curious. What are they like? Team FREE TIBET/TIBET LIBRE takes part in several projects. The objective of this team is quite simply to make known the current situation in TIBET, and to avoid letting these people, this culture be forgotten. All people sensitive to this cause are welcomed. G'day Eric If you-tube is your thing then you might start with this video although I'd recommend getting Cry of the Snow Lion from your local video store.

Apologies greg be, I didn't notice the stickied thread - now that you pointed it out I don't know how I did manage to miss it, I do my best to check for a recruiting thread but in this case I missed it. Sorry for offending you.

The apps are copies of the 32bit versions. If you have a 64bit boinc client, please join the ralph test project if you haven't already. http://ralph.bakerlab.org Sweet - my 3 64bit boxes now have their first RALPH wus
13) Message boards : Number crunching : Rosetta on 64 bit Linux (Message 40217) Posted 2 May 2007 by Trog Dog Post: I know this is an older Thread but if someone is still searching for a way to crunch rosetta with 64 bit Linux, like I was searching... I wrote a little HowTo in the BOINC Synergy Forum. You can find it here: http://www.boincsynergy.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=69800#69800 Not to detract from Stefans efforts, but given the frequency that the Rosetta app's can change sometimes - is it really too much trouble for the dev's to recognise the 64bit platform and send out the 32bit app?
14) Message boards : Number crunching : Claimed/granted credit (Message 39857) Posted 25 Apr 2007 by Trog Dog Post: Rosetta just got closer to being "top of the pack" - Einstein has further reduced it's granted credits for the next series of wu's.
15) Message boards : Number crunching : Problems with Rosetta version 5.45 (Message 36413) Posted 10 Feb 2007 by Trog Dog Post: Hi all. I've been looking at this project for a while and finally got a machine new & big enough to run it. I just installed boinc and rosetta. It has downloaded three items to crunch, but each one "finishes" right away with s status of "Computation error". I'm running Fedora Core 6 on an HP Media Center m7060n. Both KDE and GNOME are installed. I get the feeling that something in my computing environment isn't up-to-snuff.... A cut-&-paste from the client terminal 2007-02-05 11:50:53 [rosetta@home] Unrecoverable error for result 1bq9A_BOINC_ABRELAX_NE WRELAXFLAGS_frags83__1521_8771_0 (process exited with code 127 (0x7f)) 2007-02-05 11:50:53 [rosetta@home] Unrecoverable error for result 1bq9A_BOINC_ABRELAX_NE WRELAXFLAGS_frags83__1521_8771_0 (process exited with code 127 (0x7f)) Pointers to where I can RTFM to get going are welcome. Eric G'day Eric The 127 error code is a file not found code which normally means a missing library or dependency. It could also mean that the rosetta app does not have executable bit set. From a terminal window run the ldd command on the rosetta app and then on boincmgr and note what packages/libraries that you are missing. ldd /full/path/to/rosetta_5.43_i686-pc-linux-gnu and ldd /full/path/to/boincmgr substituting the correct path for /full/path/to/

Unfortunately, it was only current at the time when BOINCView was released. Thanks to Webmaster Yoda, you can download and install an updated list of projects to attach to. The list is available as a zip file at http://www.boinc-australia.net/downloads/BV-Projects.zip Instructions on its use can be found here .
