I have three Tasks that have been running for 8+ hours.

I have a feeling that there is something "unhealthy" going on with these Tasks. Any ideas from one of the Project Gurus?

Elapsed time keeps decrementing and the Progress (%) seems to be okay but I've never had a task that has run this long.[/quote]

Hi; they are all one million turn cases.
No panic (yet). We shall see. Eric.

Thank you.

One completed last evening and the other two should complete in about 30 minutes. Although these last two have passed their BOINC Manager deadline but are still okay when I look at the deadline for the Taska in the Task list on my account..

Hi Eric,

FYI, all three have now completed and provided Validation for the Tasks.

Good; but I am bit worried about "deadline" but maybe OK.
I'll see what I can find out. Eric.

No need to worry. I've had 8 to 12 hr run times that all validated OK.

I have some recollection that the deadline shown on the web pages and on Boinc manager had one day difference in the past. Maybe this was never fixed. I can't verify it as I don't have any active tasks at the moment.

It looks as if you have a <report_grace_period> or <grace_period_hours> set in your project configuration file.

Now that I have a few tasks, I can see that the deadline on Boinc Manager is one day earlier than on web.
