I'm declaring the difficulties with this computer --> 219653

To be resolved! (cue the celebratory music and fireworks)

5 consecutive successful WU's reported today, so (knock on wood) the updates and/or the reboots and/or the cursing and/or the crying and/or the incantations seem to have worked.

Rosie, Rosie, she's our gal,
If she can't do it, no one shall!

i for one i'm very pleased with the response i have received here. it is far and above what i have delt with with other projects. however i disagree with you when you say credit is still given for the work done on the problem workunites. here are a few examples where i have returned some with finished models but didn't receive any due to client error.

https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/workunit.php?wuid=16653053

Actually you did receive credit. You have to look at the result not the work unit list.

This is the result for the first in your list. Scroll to the bottom and you will see you were awarded credit. I wont take time to post them all, but I think if you check them you will find they all have credit.

sorry i was cofused by the -'s in the granted credit colum.

We Must look for intelligent life on other planets as,
it is becoming increasingly apparent we will not find any on our own.

in case this helps this is the error message i get every time it dies. HOMOLOG_ABRELAX_hom005_t283__505_7824_0 ( - exit code -1073741811 (0xc000000d))
also every time i've saw it exit it always during the switch between the inital and the full atom relax stages.

Here are my latest errors from the Messages tab in BOINC Manager:

The last error seems to have fozen my machine.
I press ctrl-alt-delete (the old three finger salute) go into task manager, end the process 'rosetta_5.13_windows_intelx86.exe' as it's not responding, exit the dialouge to debug the app, then BOINC seems to continue to crunch my other attached projects (einstein and seti).

What's the prognosis, if any?

More errors : This one is frustrating as it occurred on a WU that was basically getting near completion (94%+ with 25 models done)

https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/result.php?resultid=20185281

My results page is basically now a computing errors report. I am getting frustrated again.

I have done everything within my power. have given maintenance to my computer. I have reinstalled my Operating systems with all the hassles of having to re install many of the applications I NEED.

I cannot buy a new computer. And forget about a MAC. Simply stated most of the applications I use and NEED do not have a MAC equivalent.

This thing is very inefficient: a computing error unit gets re sent. That means a computer that could be doing a new work unit has to redo a Wu . In the case I am just reporting, redo a WU that was more than 94% complete. ARGH!!!!

Another error!!!!

This how my result pages looks now:

https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/results.php?userid=69098

The last error happened while I was using my word processor application.

The way this is going, it seems that Boinc and or Rosetta is becoming a "Windows XP, need not apply" application combo.

This is getting to the point where I am basically being forced to choose between being able to use my computer for the purposes I need or running Rosetta. I am sad to say that if I am force to make that choice, I will have to stop running Rosetta.

I am getting so annoyed , I am running the risk of being unfair: But it seems that the developers are not considering that the "conflict" issue is important to spend time finding a solution. This sounds harsh. But, This is how I am feeling.

Four more new errors. Should the last WU I have in queue fail, I will not be accepting more Rosetta work units until the issue of the 107 errors is solved. Simply stated, I am being forced to choose between using my computer for my daily tasks and watch how the Rosetta Wu's keep failing some of them within seconds of starting or have my computer as a Rosetta only computer ( That is not a choice.).
Rosetta has become for me the computational equivalent of Russian Roulette.

After they implemented the watchdog function, it seems that 99% of the previous errors are gone. Only you do post here at regular basis errors.
When I see your error rate here, I guess there has to be something with your pc.
* Is your pc overclocked? If yes, try to reset it to the normal values
* Do you use an optimized BOINC client? If yes, try the default
* Try also to run a memory test (http://www.memtest.org/#downiso).

My PC is NOT overclocked.
I do not use an optimized client
I have updated and mantained my computer and it started producing complete WUS and now ALL I am getting is the deluge of errors...

I have done everything I can to my computer. All I will do now is that should I get another 107 error, I will leave Rosetta.

Dont delude yourself thinking that because I am the only one reporting, I am the only one have problems. Maybe I am one of the few ones that CARES enought to report.

Wasting my time is something I dont like and this thing is turning out to be a waste of time.

Lost a Rosetta 5.13 unit overnite: 20297842
Running BM 5.4.9 on Win XP, hit one of those 0xc0000005 errors. when I looked at the machine this morning there were several dialog boxes saying rosetta was trying to connect to the internet / dns server (norton internet security). I don't know if they were related to this unit or one of the others that finished overnite though.

I'm seeing problems with 2 computers, both running XP, neither are over-clocked or running any optimised clients. One is an FX-53 with 2Gb of mem and the other is an AMD 64 X2 4400 with 4Gb mem.

The latter (my work PC) was doing nothing except Boinc and getting mail (Outlook Open) yet managed to come up with :

16/05/2006 16:41:22|rosetta@home|Unrecoverable error for result HOMOLOG_ABRELAX_hom004_t283__505_31515_0 ( - exit code -1073741811 (0xc000000d))

16/05/2006 16:41:22|rosetta@home|Computation for task HOMOLOG_ABRELAX_hom004_t283__505_31515_0 finished

The other FX-53 machine has been having Rosetta problems now for quite a while now, and it's user (the wife) is getting close to getting it deleted

Stuck at 1.04% after 1 hour despite having a preference setting of 1hr.

It's still crunching........if it's not changed by 90min crunch time I'm going to abort it.

In the screensaver it shows Accepted RMSD: ?

Not sure whether this is a bug

Edit: It just crashed

Not a bug. I means you are exploring unknown territory with one of the proteins from the CASP contest. I described my understanding of RMSD way down here in this thread. Hope this helps.

PS a WU that takes more than an hour is very common, and giving it another 30 min. isn't always going to help. In this case, it errored out. But in the future look at the graphic and the steps and models crunched. You have to complete 1 model before the WU will be able to send anything back. And with a 1 hr time preference, you will often run over, and often get only the one model completed. Pay no attention to the progress %, it will say 1% something during all of model 1... and with your short time preference, will then often zip to 100% when it reaches the end of model one.

I've upped it to 2 hrs and will see what happens

I am not sure if this is a problem with Version 5.13 or the new CASP workunits. Lately, I am finding that the workunits get stuck at 1.04 percent for an unknown amount of time (similiar to clark). I returned about 1.5 hours later and it was at 77 percent. The workunit reported successfully and I did not have to abort it. I think there may be a problem with the progress indicator under the workunit tab. I have not had this problem with Rosetta until my machine was sent a CASP workunit. I am using BOINC version 4.45.

Jose:
Download a program called HiJackThis! from here: MajorGeeks download site
When you run it, select the option that creates the log. Post the HiJackThis! log here, and we can see what's running in the background - and hopefully help the programmers identify what can be causing the 107 errors.
