2) Message boards : News : Release CmDock v 0.1.2 (Message 934) Posted 21 May 2021 by cpalmer Post: I've seen a few versions come and go this morning, each with different errors. However I just tried 2.03 on Fedora 33 and it fails as below. (Version 1 works fine). <core_client_version>7.16.11</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <message> process exited with code 195 (0xc3, -61)</message> <stderr_txt> 12:52:59 (71949): wrapper (7.17.26016): starting 12:52:59 (71949): wrapper (7.17.26016): starting 12:52:59 (71949): wrapper: running cmdock (-c -r target.prm -p "/var/lib/boinc/slots/1/data/scripts/dock.prm" -f htvs.ptc -i ligands.sdf -o docking_out) execv() failed: : Permission denied 12:53:00 (71949): cmdock exited; CPU time 0.000275 12:53:00 (71949): app exit status: 0x6c 12:53:00 (71949): called boinc_finish(195) </stderr_txt> ]]>

4) Message boards : News : Fifth Target is SARS-CoV-2 EProtein (Message 713) Posted 21 Mar 2021 by cpalmer Post: With the longer runtimes for the 5th target, lack of checkpointing is becoming more of a problem. I've had to remove these from machines that aren't always running 24 hours a day. I'll gladly put them back if checkpointing is implemented though... Thanks, Chris
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Something wrong with the validator? (Message 509) Posted 2 Feb 2021 by cpalmer Post: Hi A couple of things that concern me: Quite a few of my tasks are being validated within an hour, but others are still pending validation after 4 days All of the WUs for my tasks seem to have been given out 2 or 3 times Is this expected? I'm not overly worried about the delay, although it does seem odd that they are not being validated in some sort of time order. But I am a bit perturbed that I'm just repeating work that others are doing simultaneously, without even waiting for a chance to do them in a timely manner. That certainly isn't happening with the other project I am working on. Or am I misinterpreting things? Thoughts? Thanks, Chris OK, so both of these points are a result of this project being configured with quorum=2. Nothing gets validated until 2 hosts have returned identical results. And most of my tasks that are still pending validation haven't yet reached their deadline and were also given out to a host that hasn't been online for quite a while. The other project I am contributing to has quorum=1 so it doesn't happen there. I'm curious how necessary it really is to gain consensus on each WU. Presumably it is there for a reason but it is a huge overhead...
