All completed without errors, all claimed less credits than the other PCs, all resulted invalid. I\'m running Ubuntu 64 and BOINC 6.3.14. The CPU is OCed to 2.5Ghz (former 2Ghz) but it used to work fine. Everything happened with the last batch of WU, which I received AFTER installation of BOINC 6.3.14. Anyone else reports the same issue? |

All completed without errors, all claimed less credits than the other PCs, all resulted invalid. 6.3.14 is a development version. I suggest going back to 6.2.15 and only upgrade with the next non-dev release. Non-dev releases have an even number after the 6. www.chris-kent.co.uk aka Chief.com |

LHC doesn\\\'t play nicely with 6.x.x clients: http://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/forum_thread.php?id=2859 http://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/index.php \\\"The scientists are looking into the 6.X issues with BOINC as well. Thanks, Neasan\\\" The OP should go back to 5.10.x |

Thanks for the reply guys, good to know that. Anyway I can\'t go back to any other versione because I need this one to run GPUGrid fine. Too bad for LHC@Home, hope they fix the issue soon |

I\'ve had LHC running fine and producing valid results on Vista with a 6.x.x client, it might be a 6.x.x. client and Linux problem www.chris-kent.co.uk aka Chief.com |

I\'ve just had an influx of WU\'s come in today and all of them have resulted in being invalid. My Boinc edition is 6.2.19 and has successfully received points in the past so I do not think this is a Boinc edition problem. If you look at the work unit below, all the results returned have an outcome of client error: http://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/workunit.php?wuid=2983267 Here are some of the Boinc editions that have failed 5.4.9, 5.10.28, 5.10.45, 6.2.16, 6.2.18, 6.2.19. Application versions 4.66 and 4.67. This needs looking into otherwise there is going to be plenty of wasted computation hours. Rob |

I also have had a significant amount of invalid results with the last batch. The most recent results were validated again though. There clearly is something going on here because the number of invalid results for each workunit is abnormally high.

There must be something wrong with the batch not with the client.... Bad job guys! greetz littleBouncer

Some strange things going on. One of my last results first had a \"successful outcome\", one hour later it changed to a \"client error outcome\". I hope this can help. BOINC.BE: The team for Belgians and their friends who love the smell of glowing red cpu's in the morning |

I am using 5.10.45 on ubuntu 64 and have also had a fair number of invalid results as well as on my other 4 windoze machines that are running 5.10.45 as well as one running 6.2.16. I would assume it is not a version problem more likely a batch issue . I am only guessing though.

Chalk up another complaint - 4 WUs shot down, i.e. Client Error. I am runnng 5.10.45 on a Sony VAIO, WINDOWS XP, SP3, 1 GB RAM (shared), 2.80 GHz, about as vanilla as it is possible to get. |

Same trouble here with 5.10.45 on AMD XP under Win XP Pro SP2. Work today had one success and the rest were errors (compared to nothing but success previously):  |

All 4 more recent LHC WUs ended in client error. I am running BOINC 5.10.45 on SuSE Linux 10.3. No error whatsoever on SETI, Einstein, QMC. CPDN and CPDN Beta. Tullio |

The work units, named wjuly_lhc..., have always very high rate of Client error. I don't know why. These may be specific or test work units.

Apparently they do not make any test run before a new release. This is not what you would expect even from a beta test. |

Most of finished tasks for wjuly_... work units have the validate state Invalid or Workunit error - check skipped. That is all.

Two pending, including mine, two in progress and nine client error, this my latest WU score. Random errors? Tullio |

Two pending, including mine, two in progress and nine client error, this my latest WU score. Random errors? I just looked at your task list and compared it to the errors I\'ve been seeing. It seems to be solely the wjuly_lhcboind batch that is causing the problems. Your wjuly_lhcamps and wjuly_lhcboinclongname work units passed successfully. |

I\'ve some wjuly_lhcboind that passed successfull, but other no. There is no clearly OS (linux64 or win32) nor CPU architecture (Core2Duo, P4, Athlon, Opteron)NOR o/c or standard frequencies clues for such errors. Need this batch too much precision in calculation ? ------ Thrr-Gilag Kee'rr L'Alliance Francophone |

I\\\'ve some wjuly_lhcboind that passed successfull, but other no. I haven't had a single successful work unit from this batch. They all complete OK, but get changed to client error some time later. I have some pending WUs, but I doubt that any of those will survive validation. Sometimes I wonder how I ever managed to get any credit on this project. It would be nice to struggle up from 9k to 10k, but I need work that works :) Al. p.s. I see the message posting window still doesn\'t work properly. Nice. p.p.s. I see the quote marks still haven't been fixed. Double nice. |
