Re: [RESOLVED] Unable to Get Device Profile to Take Effect

When nelsoc posted the he has fixed it, it was really working for about 30 mins. But then the forum crashed - can't remember the error but it was like "init system". When the forum was up, the problem goes back again.

Re: [RESOLVED] Unable to Get Device Profile to Take Effect

Luckily I am getting tasks as of nelsoc's tweak last night. So I will change nothing and sit tight and not change any settings until this gets figured out.
Maybe I will take a bath. In fact I know I will! smile

Re: Unable to Get Device Profile to Take Effect

My quads have run out of work. I have my profiles set send me work from another project if there is no work available.

I'll crunch some Docking projects while waiting for this problem to be resolved.

we need an emoticon with sweat dripping off of it! Cold sweat.

Here ya go:

Re: Unable to Get Device Profile to Take Effect

Update: It appears the message queues that deliver the updates from the website to boinc are getting held up. I was able to clear them and the changes I made to My Projects and my Device Profiles (before clearing the queues) were subsequently pushed to my computer (when I updated the project).

To compound the issue, the checks on the queues had crashed, so the tech team wasn't notified of the problem, where as normally we'd get emails and text messages and dogs barking and fire alarms.

We're not sure what the cause of the underlying issue is, but since the queue checks are working again, we will at least be notified if something goes wrong. We'll continue to monitor the queues and this thread over the weekend and look more closely for a root cause on Monday.

Re: Unable to Get Device Profile to Take Effect

Yes, changed from HCC to HCMD2/HFCC mix and promptly got a HFCC and several HCMD2 jobs after increasing cache slightly.

Re: Unable to Get Device Profile to Take Effect

nelsoc, thanks, my quad is now happily crunching at 100% again and the beta hoover profile has been deleted. Guess 7 days beta in three years means my bronze is still another three years away.

[...] and dogs barking and fire alarms.

Hehe, good idea, I will bring this up when I have the next meeting with our IT Director. I will advice him to also implement something like that, with the option, that I also can hear the barking in my office... biggrin tongue wink

Thanks guys, your work is really appriciated (at least by the most people here in the forum)...!!! peace dancing applause

Not necessarily. I didn't get any Betas the last two times but I usually get a few. Hang in there.

applause Re: Unable to Get Device Profile to Take Effect

I changed profile cache twice and each time it was correctly picked up by the BOINC Manager, so I believe the problem is resolved.

Nelsoc, a big thank you for spending the time this weekend to resolve the problem and reporting your findings and actions! applause

I am going to mark this thread as [Resolved]. Sorry about the delay in doing so, my daughter was competing to represent her HS section in state competition and it ran very late.
