I checked the results for the 7 v7.24 WUs I crunched. I did see 2 situations where the stderr_txt section had a large part missing. It happened with the wingmen too. Because of that I couldn't positively verify the start time and compare with the logged elasped time, or see the early part of the stderr_txt. Looking at the receievd and sent times of one of them suggest that the beta WU was running for 32 hours, but logged just 2:41. That would be alot of restarts.
----------------------------------------I also had one whose log indicated no passes at all. 4 hours of initialization and then an exit.  I will check my production MCM WUs for these issues. Cheers   |

Caught a last minute resend on one of the laptops. The deadline was on the very same day even though the wingman from the original pair that actually did complete took almost a full 24 hours. Since then the deadline has passed and the other 2 resends (yes, this one was the 3rd) have managed to complete too.
----------------------------------------It's now over 70% done, but I just hope that by tonight when the WU will complete, it won't be deemed as "Too late".  This would definitely push me over the threshold and I would finally have that shiny bronze badge too!  Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world! - Albert Einstein   |

CanymanWCG, you should still get run time even if it is too late.

Thanks, Coleslaw, I'm about to find out I guess.
----------------------------------------Unfortunately, last night, after more than 16 hours of processing and over 75% of progress I rebooted the laptop and all hell broke loose (as far as this WU was concerned). First, the progress went down to ~66%, then reverted to 0.5% like they normally do, finally it went back to 78% and looked like it was all good, but then it just errored out with "Computation error". This morning I see that I was credited for it, but I guess that must have happened after the update because the runtime for this project remained the same, therefore I still don't have the Beta badge. So now I need to wait for the afternoon update to see if I made it or if I need to be on the lookout for the next MCM Beta. Anyway, at least the error log of the WU contains a lot of debugging information so the techs will be able to analyze. Cheers! Knowledge is limited.

Hey, hey, check out my fancy new bronze badge!!! Well done, there's something special about getting that first Beta badge Ralf I'm just happy I finally got it. Since there are no badges awarded for having returned at least 1 valid WU for a project (as it was proposed a while ago here ), I wanted this effort to be also reflected in my badge collection. And that final errored WU put me over the threshold. I will still keep an eye out for any Beta work, but the pressure is off now. Thanks Tony and Ralf! Cheers!  Edit: added Ralf's name instead of his forum nickname Edit2: same for Tony Knowledge is limited.

Actually, Hammerburg I think you may be referring to the "re-activation" of HFCC and SNS2 which will of course be preceded by some Beta tests, I believe. And let's not forget that MCM is now also on hold pending the fix of the duplication issue which has already been announced will have another Beta before it goes back to active.
----------------------------------------I hope this makes sense. Cheers! Edit: "are" to "may be" - as I can't read minds. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world! - Albert Einstein [Edit 2 times, last edit by CandymanWCG at Nov 14, 2013 10:42:14 AM] |
