it seems the host-information for a number of computers is messed up since the serverside upgrade today. see computers in my profile or: http://lhcathome.cern.ch/show_host_detail.php?hostid=57107 http://lhcathome.cern.ch/show_host_detail.php?hostid=64792 |

add http://lhcathome.cern.ch/show_host_detail.php?hostid=47319 to that as well. all my machines are running BOINC 4.72. it seems the information gets malformed when they update/upload results. |

*SOME* of mine were messed up also, but manual updates this morning seem to have restored them. not sure what is up with that ... but, I will take what I can get ... |

well, from what I have been able to gather (see also Chrulle's thread) is that the info gets corrupted when credit is granted, but is restored as soon as the client contacts the server to download/upload/report results. I already shot Chrulle a mail with my findings. credit is still being granted and the reported results seem to be valid, so we'll see what happens. |

Yes, that looks like it to me too ... I had them all corrected, but now a couple are back to being bad ... |

credit is still being granted and the reported results seem to be valid, so we'll see what happens. Yeah, i gathered that the physics and the credit was doing fine, so i put the server back online. This way useful work will be done while we figure out what is going on. Chrulle Research Assistant & Ex-LHC@home developer Niels Bohr Institute |

It is some kind of odd ... it is almost as if some fields are joind and others are just weird. Of course, this points to the Paul rule of SQL updates, always NAME the fields to be updated, that way changes to the order of the data within the table structure to be changed/updated do not "break" queries ... Positional notation is not only lazy, but obscures the code, lends itself to these kinds of problems, and never saves the time it is supposed to ... Just one man's opinion though ... |
