Well you did just get that one time but it is something that will happen if your internet connection has a problem or just slows down to a speed that causes all those lines to turn into a mess like that.

I had a few hundred of those when I was first testing these Atlas multi-cores before they came over to LHC if my former DSL was running slow.

Sometimes they correct themselves and continue running jobs but this one still ended up as Invalid.

I used to watch the log as they started to make sure they were going to work but that was way before they came over here.

You can see where it did correct itself after that error but did not connect with Cern to finish that task.

You should be ok since that is your only Invalid.

(no it isn't "mining")

I did just notice you are running these all at 8-core tasks and they do work but you could change your settings to run two 4-core tasks at a time........I guess if you had more Ram you could try four 2-core tasks at a time if you want to try that.....but these 8-cores are working for you and I did run lots of those before but switched to 2-core tasks since they worked better.

And yours would run Theory tasks that way with no problems.
