confused Validation process

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm curious about the validation process. The following WU is "Pending Validation" even if it reached the minimum quorum and replication (2). I guess it's a matter of waiting a couple of hours, but it seemed odd to me.

Project Name:  	 	The Clean Energy Project
Created: 27/04/09
Name: E000601_776A_002w6l00k
Minimum Quorum: 2
Replication: 2

Result Name App Version Number Status Sent Time Time Due / Return Time CPU Time (hours) Claimed/ Granted BOINC Credit
E000601_ 776A_ 002w6l00k_ 0-- 631 Pending Validation 28/04/09 07:10:37 01/05/09 04:25:41 9.01 138.1 / 0.0
E000601_ 776A_ 002w6l00k_ 1-- 631 Pending Validation 28/04/09 07:09:51 02/05/09 13:23:16 17.59 145.5 / 0.0

Re: Validation process

The validators are stopped from time to time. It's not usually something to worry about.

Re: Validation process

Thanks for your answer Didactylos.

As I suspected, after some time (1~2 hours) that WU is now validated.

I believe that on the other projects, as soon as the minimum quorum is reached and there's a match in the results, the WU is immediately validated. I guess there's some extra work to do in CEP or what you say about validators being stopped from time to time.

Re: Validation process

Hello,
I also got a question about validation process.

In my case, three replications of a work unit have been sent out.
Two of them have been declared as valid, the third one as invalid.

It seems,however, strange to me, that the two work units declared as valid seem to have been processed with some kind of error.

The error of the valid work unit is identical in both cases and looks like that:

work unit number 1 (valid)
Result Log

<core_client_version>5.10.45</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<stderr_txt>
Calling gridPlatform.init()
Calling initGraphics()
INFO: No state to restore. Start from the beginning.
Calling gridPlatform.init()
Calling initGraphics()

called boinc_finish
--------------------------------------
work unit number 2 (valid)


Result Log

<core_client_version>6.4.5</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<stderr_txt>

</stderr_txt>
]]>
close


The thrid work unit, dcelared as invalid has the longest CPU runtime (which in my opinion indicates, that it might have been processed correctly) has the following log:



Result Log

<core_client_version>5.10.45</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<stderr_txt>
Calling gridPlatform.init()
Calling initGraphics()
INFO: No state to restore. Start from the beginning.
called boinc_finish

</stderr_txt>
]]>

Please check this and give me an answer. I ask this question because I want to avoid incorrect data from beeing given to the resarchers
Thank you in advance.

Sorry,
I forgot to give the number of the work unit my question given above is all about.
