Maybe similar issue described in this thread. Would you perform a project reset? Turns out the auto updates were not enough for some drivers. Had to go hunting. Chipset and and a new GPU driver (not part of the usual updates) Had a bunch of BSOD's annoying me, so solving that solves EXIT_CHILD. Thanks for pointing me back to that page.

PLUS...it crashes my system. Black screen, no computing from BOINC, Ctrl alt del has no effect. My system can only be powered down and restarted. So what is this all about anyway? So NOT normal...... Question....does this have to do with residual whatevers leftover from windows updates and system backups? I just cleaned my system and got rid of a bunch of old windows stuff after suffering a BSOD memory management crash. Hoping that clears up the EXIT CHILD issue.

PCs visible. Paul. That's all I am getting as well. .83 to 1 credit per task. But now with this server issue...the RAC goes from 3,000 to 1,000 and now 500. Unreal.
5) Message boards : News : Temporarily work unavailabilities (Message 1755) Posted 11 Nov 2022 by Greg_BE Post: hoarfrost, Is there going to be any increase in output of tasks? My RAC is dying on your project. I just got 2 tasks at 2100 CET and it takes just around 4 hrs to run them. So my system is always ready for more and I don't get them all that often now.

Maybe when you go down and take your webservers offline you can post on your unused Twitter page.
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Pending credit with me and a wingman (Message 1459) Posted 15 Jan 2022 by Greg_BE Post: Tasks have been completed ok. Wingman has also completed the task ok. Most projects validate the results and give credit. Not here. I see that the tasks have these factors: minimum quorum 2 initial replication 2 max # of error/total/success tasks 8, 8, 8 Well if it's a quorum of 2, then why hasn't the server validated the 20 tasks I have spit out so far and that the wingman has also completed? The project has server problems and it tends to get overloaded. There are currently over 14,000 tasks waiting for validation (70 of them mine 🙂). The work flows slowly but it does flow and you get the credits after a while. I guess that's a good problem to have. They grew to quickly for their funding.

Already reported https://boinc.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=14413 See http://wuprop.boinc-af.org/forum_thread.php?id=575&postid=8360#8360 for the quick temporary fix. WOW! That worked like a charm! Thanks!

12) Message boards : Number crunching : Task shows 100% but is still running (Message 1212) Posted 19 Sep 2021 by Greg_BE Post: corona_Eprot_v1_run_2_nb3di_217515_4_0 shows 100% in BOINC but then looking at docking_out I see this: Average duration per ligand: 38.66 second(s) Approximately 121 record(s) remaining, will finish 09/19/21 22:42:37 So does BOINC have no idea how this is running or is the progress report crazy?
13) Message boards : News : SiDock@home September Sailing (Message 1211) Posted 19 Sep 2021 by Greg_BE Post: Seems like my hosts don't get any new workunits as soon as Eprot workunits were replaced by 3CLpro. Probably the low runtime creates too much stress on the server again :( 3CLpro takes like 20-30 minutes to complete Eprot takes like 5-6 hours so it creates 12 times the downloads and uploads. 12 times the queries and since no tasks are in queue on the client side probably even more. I'm seeing my client estimate 2-3 days for finish times with 5 hours run time so far for Eprot. You times on 3CLpro were exactly what I got.
