Following on from Sunday Stats problem with Crunching Server @ WCG
I'm getting the following problem:
05/02/2007 09:57:04 Sceduler RPC Succeeded [server version 507]

Then it just hangs nothing happens until i goto Projects tab & press Update Tab!
Whats the best thing to do, as no crunching happening!:(
Only started since updating Boinc with new better Boinc.
Anyone got any (good) ideas

Problem solved, gone back to older version of Boinc!

Now back to Crunching:D
 
Have you upped the 'connect to network' time yet as said by Ady in the thread you linked to??? No....

Those entries in your log are normal for BOINC, although it should be running a WU. Do you get any Red entries in your BOINC log?
Do you have any problems under the Transfers tab of BOINC?

I have had zero probs with the new BOINC version, are you sure its not a prob on your end or with your prefs?

Heres the latest on that problem:
We had an outage today for about 4 hours which ended at 18:00 UTC. The error was due to a problem with mounting of the data filesystem on one of our web servers. This issue only involved the BOINC system and it only impacted some of those members. These members will see errors in the transfers tab of the BOINC client for both uploads of results and downloads of new work. The BOINC client will automatically retry the transfers when the back off timer expires so members do not need to do anything. If however you wish to, then you can use the 'Retry Now' button for each item on the list and they will be able to upload and download correctly.

We apologize for the error and we are working on resolving the root cause of the problem to prevent it happening again in the future.

At this time the system is back in normal operations and members can upload and download work correctly.
Hopefully everyone is back up and running now - just remember to increase your connection time to get a nice 1-2 days queue of work to cover these occasions :thumb:
 
I can crunch, i just cant report crunched units:(
I have reverted back to the older version of Boinc.
List below may help???

I reverted back m8 ..and it started to work fine..so updated again to new version. Try update in Boinc manager as a long shot :)
 
My dual cores crunchin into destiny :D
 
Have you increased the 'connect to network' time yet?
Do you have any problems under the Transfers tab of BOINC?

If its still not working, then its a problem on your end me thinks. You could try resetting the project, under the Projects tab.

I have just been through me BOINC log, and my pc has been up since the beginning of the month with no errors reported yet. I am also on server version 507 like yourself. If that helps. :)

Will see how it goes tonight/tomorrow if no joy may remove & then download Boinc fresh.
Cheers for the Help:thumb:
 
Well the update is i can crunch:D
Downside is it will not report what i crunch:(
Message just say's Ready to report but it does nothing!
Everyting i have tried or so far been suggested does not work, considoring removing all Boinc from pc and starting afresh?
So far i've lost 3 units totalling 12 hours of crunching:mad:
Any advice??????
 
BOINC dont 'report' the WU right away! The fact that it is 'Ready to Report' means that it has been uploaded.....Just waiting for the next time it connects to the server to report it. Its a two step process. ;)

Just leave it to get on with it......

If thats the 'problem' you have been talking about, then dont worry thats normal, thats why i kept asking the questions that you never answered! :)

See how it goes mate. Just forget about it for now. :thumb:
 
If you can't wait for Boinc to automatically connect and report those results then you can always click on 'Update' in the Projects tab ;)

...remember that the longer you have the 'connect to network every .... days' set in your WCG device profile, then the longer it takes between uploading the results and reporting them.

Setting it to 2 days means you will cache 2 days of work to tide you over any outages, and the results will be reported about twice a day on average, however the results will still be uploaded immediately :thumb:
 
Found out what the error was.....................................it was human:o :o

But will stay with this version & not go for the new advanced one that i had problems with.
Cheers for the advice & help:D
 
Have 8 wu pending....roll on points time :)
