2) Message boards : Number crunching : Problems and Technical Issues with Rosetta@home (Message 70813) Posted 30 Jul 2011 by davidnoreen Post: Hi Snagletooth I have never installed a firewall in Ubuntu - I go through a router which protects me. As I say, everything was fine (therefore port access in the router was setup ok) until suddenly. And since 6am this morning on this machine, 2 tasks completed ok - the next 9 exited with errors after a few minutes (1hr 09, 30m, 19m, 07m, 17m, 15m, 01m, 0.01m, 0.02m respectively). It seems odd that 2 computers suddenly became error prone at the same time and and in the same approximate quantity. I feel very despondent about this - research into cancer is very personal to me and I thought I was contributing, albeit in a small way. Please help as I am not technical in sorting out why this is being wasted. I'm afraid your paste of the error is double-dutch to me. David

I have been crunching 24/7without a problem on either macchine. However, in the last week I am plagued with computation errors; I would sday 90%+ on both machines. Are there bad units being put out? It is very frustrating to suddenly start getting these errors. Both computers are new. Am I wasting my time with Rosetta or can anybody please shed light on the problem? As I said, you will need to tell me what/where the details are to help track the problem. Many thanks, David
