We hosted a task that ran for over 42 hours and failed to finalize its results, so it started over and ran for another 42 hours and again failed to finalize its results, so it started over ... so we aborted the task.
Apparently we don't get credit for those 84 wasted CPU hours??? |

The best you can do is to post the contents of the message tab of the entire work unit here and see if it is a known problem. At least a community advisor will address.

I encountered the same thing. I aborted 2 WU's recently that ran 80 hrs or more before I recognised the behaviour (because of the weekend). The same message appeared.
----------------------------------------I don't mind wasting a short running WU, but wasting 80 hrs is a bit harsh when you think of the amount of HCC wu's I could've processed.

Thanks for sharing that. We are new at WCG. At least now we know it's not something uniquely wrong on our end. We've decided not to take any more WUs from CEP until someone from CEP clears this up for us.

Welcome KLT Associates!
----------------------------------------I just wanted to let you now that this not common here at WCG. Probably some bug that got past the scientists without being squashed... The service towards crunchers is the best I've seen in grid computing so far...  (so I expect a solution soon  )[update]Please follow this link: https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=22828 [/update]
