Over a few days ( before I opened this thread ) I have observed this result. It is crunched by three hosts with success. Why it isn't validated?
Has it to do, because they are crunched with 4.64,and the validater doesn't validate "4.64's" or has the validator a 'hickup'?
(see the date when the 3th. returned and when I have written it.)

Any ideas are wellcommed

Maybe the results aren't similar enough across all three wu's, so the vailidator is waiting on another result? With some luck the results are similar between pairs of wu's so the all will be granted credit when it gets validated. Interesting though.

Live long and crunch!

I thought then it will stated somehow as 'not conscious yet' or was that on PAH's-resultpages...

happy crunching!

Not here... There is no way to see whether a result has been validated until the validation is successful for some results in the workunit.

So it might be that there was differences between the results. But there might also be a problem with the validator, it had suspiciously empty log file... We'll see.

BTW: at least on 21. they will send out again, I hope. (because it seems: the other two had detached or reseted the project)

Ok, to make it more accurate: there is no "has-validated" status in user-side web interface. Of course there are (normally) administrator-side log files etc. to see whether a workunit has been validated or not.
