apologies in advance if im posting this question in the wrong place. i looked at the q&a section for unix/linux related issues and the threads there all seem to be quite old. i got pretty excited recently when lhc started having work again so i wanted to crunch on my mac too. attempts today to do this have all ended in errors for this host's tasks and this host's tasks i see on the applications page there is a mac app for sixtrack: Intel 64-bit Mac OS 10.5 or later 444.01 3 Jul 2012 | 19:18:48 UTC all the wu seemed to get the same error. here's an example: <core_client_version>7.0.25</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <message> process exited with code 193 (0xc1, -63) </message> <stderr_txt> SIGBUS: bus error Crashed executable name: sixtrack_apple_gen Machine type Intel 80486 (32-bit executable) System version: Macintosh OS 10.7.4 build 11E53 Tue Jul 3 17:45:00 2012 0 sixtrack_apple_gen 0x0020df9e PrintBacktrace (in sixtrack_apple_gen) + 1022 Thread 0 crashed with X86 Thread State (32-bit): eax: 0xffffffe1 ebx: 0x00000003 ecx: 0xbfffa61c edx: 0x92166c22 edi: 0xbfffa678 esi: 0x00000003 ebp: 0xbfffa648 esp: 0xbfffa61c ss: 0x00000023 efl: 0x00000206 eip: 0x92166c22 cs: 0x0000000b ds: 0x00000023 es: 0x00000023 fs: 0x00000000 gs: 0x0000000f Binary Images Description: 0x1000 - 0x31ffff /Library/Application Support/BOINC Data/slots/8/../../projects/lhcathomeclassic.cern.ch_sixtrack/sixtrack_apple_gen 0x90626000 - 0x90627fff /usr/lib/system/libunc.dylib 0x90783000 - 0x90786fff /usr/lib/system/libmathCommon.A.dylib 0x91085000 - 0x9108dfff /usr/lib/system/libcopyfile.dylib 0x911f1000 - 0x911f1fff /usr/lib/system/libdnsinfo.dylib 0x91de2000 - 0x91de9fff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_notify.dylib 0x92150000 - 0x9216efff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x92209000 - 0x9220efff /usr/lib/system/libmacho.dylib 0x940bb000 - 0x94186fff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_c.dylib 0x94eb6000 - 0x94eccfff /usr/lib/system/libxpc.dylib 0x96040000 - 0x96044fff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_network.dylib 0x9631a000 - 0x96349fff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_info.dylib 0x97944000 - 0x97952fff /usr/lib/system/libdispatch.dylib 0x9829f000 - 0x982a3fff /usr/lib/system/libcache.dylib 0x982a4000 - 0x982d2fff /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib 0x9838b000 - 0x983cefff /usr/lib/system/libcommonCrypto.dylib 0x983cf000 - 0x983d1fff /usr/lib/system/libdyld.dylib 0x983d2000 - 0x983d3fff /usr/lib/system/libquarantine.dylib 0x9a47e000 - 0x9a486fff /usr/lib/system/liblaunch.dylib 0x9aa2e000 - 0x9aa31fff /usr/lib/system/libcompiler_rt.dylib 0x9ab22000 - 0x9ab2afff /usr/lib/system/libunwind.dylib 0x9aeae000 - 0x9aeaffff /usr/lib/system/libremovefile.dylib 0x9bcc2000 - 0x9bcc2fff /usr/lib/system/libkeymgr.dylib 0x9bcc3000 - 0x9bccafff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_dnssd.dylib 0x9bd3c000 - 0x9bd3dfff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_sandbox.dylib 0x9be6f000 - 0x9be70fff /usr/lib/system/libsystem_blocks.dylib Exiting... </stderr_txt> ]]> --------------------- of the two macs, one is a mac mini and the other is a macbook air. both are running os x lion 10.7.4. im not too familiar with mac or unix/linux so any information you can provide youll have to treat me like a new guy. this thread seems to indicate working towards some apps for mac. i dont know if the sixtrack app being used is the correct version. it would be nice to get these two machines running sixtrack. they have had boinc installed and have been running other projects for quite a while now so i know they are stable. just having difficulty right now trying to get sixtrack working. thanks for any help or information you can provide. rob |

thank you for the warning. The MAC version was indeed intended for Apple machines with Intel processors. I think we need to analyze this one to see why it is crashing. Sorry about the difficulties. Igor. skype id: igor-zacharov |

thank you for the warning. i dont think the difficulties are based on the processor. the mac mini has an i7 and the macbook air has an i5, both of which are 64 bit i believe. the two machines are no more than a year and a half old. if there is more information you would like me to provide regarding this, please let me know. thanks. rob |

I'm getting only computation errors with the 444.01 application on my two Mac OS X machines (one hackintosh, one 27" iMac) ranging between 0 and a few seconds computation time. Both are stable at other projects. Both are Intel based and running Lion. Tried updating Boinc to the latst version, but that didn't help either. Log of one of them: <core_client_version>7.0.28</core_client_version>

I just discovered that SixTrack can run on a 64-bit mac. I have two, an i7 and Core2 Duo. It is too soon to see if I have any crashes. I hope I can be of some help. Philip |

I just discovered that SixTrack can run on a 64-bit mac. I have two, an i7 and Core2 Duo. It is too soon to see if I have any crashes. hopefully youll have success. according to the applications page there should be a 64 bit mac version. according to the errors i got it seemed to me like my mac was using a 32 bit version but im not sure:
that error was on a mac mini with an i7 processor so i dont know if that machine may have downloaded the wrong application for some reason. i would assume it should have downloaded the 64 bit app? the boinc client runs in 32 bit mode on that mac but for other projects that have 64 bit apps, they run fine. rob |

All our excutablesiare 32-bit but they run on 64-bit systems OK. Well at least on some.... More news soonest. Eric. |

All our excutablesiare 32-bit but they run on 64-bit thanks for the explanation on the executables. will wait to hear more before i attempt lhc on those machines again. if theres any other information you would like to know about these machines to help diagnose any problems, please let me know. thanks for the update. rob |

I still have the same errors with the latest WU received, and worse, I see in my account there are other units with "errors while downloading", dated 2 days ago. <core_client_version>7.0.29</core_client_version> |

I come back from holidays, upgrade boinc as suggested (new official version 7.0.31) and I only have errors from LHC units : Lun 27 aoû 06:04:57 2012 | LHC@home 1.0 | Starting task wlxscan_w5cbb__44__s__64.31_59.32__4_5__6__33_1_sixvf_boinc26336_0 using sixtrack version 44402 in slot 0 |

Well, still giving the same errors, suspending LHC for now... |

EDIT : actually it's the other way, it started bad with the 25 errors on the 07/10, but the WU crunched today seem to be OK... 1 month later, I decided to give it another try. It started well, 8 valid tasks crunched yesterday, but then today with the same application version, 25 errors... Stderr output Uncool. |

Very uncool indeed! maybe your CPU is too hot! :-) Seriously I am trying to get feedback from other MacOS users and from our logs. I am really very very surprised that you can run some WUs OK and then have a failure. I really suspect your machine. Could you please let me know your CPU ID so we check. Thanks. Eric. |

Hi I hadn't seen your answer (bloody "no notificiation boinc forums"), it turns out I came back here cause I see I have again LHC in my boinc, I had removed the "no more work" doing other things with my list of projects (I have many) and let it like that, the good news is they seem to be running (after 5 hours for one of them) and didn't brake... They are here The point is I don't have major issue with all my other projects (I even do Test4Theory), so I'm not convinced "my mac would have a problem"... |
