41) Message boards : Number crunching : Workunits Coming Soon? (Message 10756) Posted 16 Oct 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: <blockquote>Hi How about a message on the front page to let us all know what is going on? Keep the crunchers happy and we may process work for the project.</blockquote> I believe we have the message: Server Status Up, 3453 workunits to crunch 31435 workunits in progress 39 concurrent connections I don't see where is the problem then.
42) Message boards : Number crunching : Super user ????? (Message 10201) Posted 16 Sep 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: <blockquote>Well! - If this can happen for other users, and for other project's running using Boinc, then maby Boinc need some kind of ajustment? Like a limit for number of jobs sent to one user for each project using Boinc. Dimmerjas</blockquote> There is a limit that is used. It is the daily quota which is per CPU and per day. This is a project depending number. For example here it is set at 100, for E@H it is set at 8.
43) Message boards : Number crunching : Is it currently no work? (Message 9891) Posted 3 Sep 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: <blockquote>Yes. Seti & Einstein works just fine?</blockquote> The 'Requesting 0 seconds of work' comes from the long term debt that does not allow for the moment to download new WU's. Give it a time and things will sort out automatically.
44) Message boards : Number crunching : Is it currently no work? (Message 9889) Posted 3 Sep 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: <blockquote>I am currently unable to upload work and receive the message "Requesting 0 seconds of work " when I hit the 'Send & Receive' bottom Is it currently no work or is it something wrong whit my BOINC installation? Tomas</blockquote> Do you participate in other projects? (Einstein@Home or Seti@Home or another one)
45) Questions and Answers : Windows : Detached from project (Message 9808) Posted 1 Sep 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: From Boinc Wiki Quote This Message means that the BOINC Client Software was not able to start a communication session with the Project because it was unable to obtain the most up-to-date copy of the Project's Master Page. The other Messages that accompany this message will contain the details of the specific cause of the failure. End quote. This problem comes very probably from a misconfigured firewall or router.
46) Message boards : Number crunching : Related to the new php code (Message 9239) Posted 8 Aug 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: Is the new php code responsible for the shorter deadline or not?
47) Message boards : LHC@home Science : LHC - ATLAS .. now detecting Muons from Cosmic Storms. (Message 9146) Posted 3 Aug 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: Original article from Cern can be read here. (also in French)
48) Message boards : LHC@home Science : Let's build that monster ! (Message 9144) Posted 3 Aug 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: From May 2005 The first major contract signed for the LHC is drawing to a close. Belgian firm Cockerill Sambre (a member of the Arcelor Group) has just completed production of 50,000 tonnes of steel sheets for the accelerator's superconducting magnet yokes, in what has proved to be an exemplary partnership with CERN. ............ The yokes constitute approximately 80% of the accelerator's weight and, if placed side by side, would stretch over 20 km ! Read the full article, also in French, here.
49) Message boards : Number crunching : only 10 k WU's left (Message 9084) Posted 1 Aug 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: > The number of WUs keep going down and the number of participants keep going up > (now up to 10130). I though that sign-ups were going to be stopped at 10k? Well, this is not a surprise. LHC is known as being a project different from others. Sometime there is a lot of work, then there is no work at all.
50) Message boards : Number crunching : This guy really needs to check his computer, or overclock less...

51) Questions and Answers : Wish list : Since it is a wish list....SCREENSAVER (Message 8976) Posted 27 Jul 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: Click on the WU that is crunching for E@H. Use the "Show Graphics". The screensaver should work if "Show graphics" works.
52) Questions and Answers : Getting started : how to remove account?? (Message 8975) Posted 27 Jul 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: Not to worry about. I did the same more then a year ago with S@H Beta. It doesn't affect anything. It will just remain on the server as an unused account.
53) Message boards : Number crunching : Upgrading BOINC (Message 8854) Posted 23 Jul 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: As for my experience, running ZA for about 2 years now, better to do a fresh install if an important upgrade is coming out then doing an upgrade.

55) Message boards : Number crunching : Surely a pointless request (Message 8317) Posted 5 Jul 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: > A one second request is equivelent to asking for one work unit.

59) Message boards : Number crunching : The Anticipation is Growing...... (Message 7891) Posted 31 May 2005 by Thierry Van Driessche Post: News people: 31.5.2005 10:12 UTC The new submission scripts caused some name mangling when jobs returned. Making it hard to figure out which result belonged to what job. This should be resolved now and the new scripts have been installed on the production server. If no further complications arise we will launch the first study tomorrow. It will be about 30'000 1'000'000 turn jobs.

With SAH and EAH the > Client works as it should. > The Client needs alot of patient!!! Well after all, 1 WU for Seti was sent back leaving only 1 WU for Seti over. At that moment, the manager downloaded 5 WU's for E@H. It seems to work but apparently the LT debt has to learn dealing with timings. That's the way I interpret it for the moment. Update: From JohnMcLeodVII Yes, the positive debt for LHC is the culprit. Yes, it should take this into account, and a fix for this has been checked in As LHC had a quite big positive LT debt on my host, this is messing up the downloads for other projects.
