Yeah lately when anything changes it isn't any better so I tried a new one and get the same thing
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=406018618
And I even wasted a long time doing a new Oracle update and a reset here and d/l the vdi again and at first it looks like it is going to work and then we get that repeated *credential* failure.

well I couldn't sleep until I went upstairs and got this current running snap shot and as I mentioned the CMS don't run this the same as it used to and the Theory tasks do still give us the running logs there.....and this is after running 13 hours and at 66.5%


goodnight

[quote]I just checked the two I started 7 hours ago and this time they are still running but still stuck at
*application starting check log files* and the ones doing this before just stopped after an hour running and sent back since they didn't run the CPU run time more than the usual less than 10 minutes.....so I will just let them run and see what happens.

application starting check log files
After this message, you can do this
You can in Boincmanager for the CMS Task open the Graphic Button.
After this, your Browser opens a new page.
There are Information also for this task.


LOL I have checked thousands of my tasks doing that Axel......every single VB task I have run I watch them by doing that.
and the entire Run time 13 hours 53 min 5 sec on that page it never got past *application starting check log files*
But last month they did some update so you can't get the same version of the log with a CMS as they used to be so you had to check another tab there but not the running log tab
https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/result.php?resultid=3302911
This one did finally have the info on the stderr instead of watching that other url so until the one tonight they were all doing this here and at -dev https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/result.php?resultid=3302801

That is the one I mentioned and it finished and sent it in BUT it still stayed at *application starting check log files*
And all the ones before that didn't actually run and were sent back after one hour runs and less than 10 minutes CPU time.
Before this started they always * Requesting an idtoken from LHC@home*
I only have one running now doing the same thing and since it is 4;20am I better wait until later to try again and see if they will actually run a job (oh and I always take snap shots of logs so I have thousands of those too)

I knew when I said it was working it would be a jinx
Well it worked for 2 days (same happened with Theory)

I got 16 here running and 5 finished in only 11 hours (cheapskates with the credits on those) but the other 11 here are running good and look like they will be 18 hours each.
And ran/running several over at -dev and no problems there (not cheapskates with the credits on those)....not that it matters
Always good to see you here Ivan .....just take it easy

Yes sherpa can be that way for sure but I do get Valid ones with them once in a while and most of the nice long Theory tend to be a pythia 6 or 8 and many of those Valid after 7 days and I tend to save some of those when I catch them.
I tend to watch and check any of my VB tasks 99.8% of the time. (I should find out which host I have ran the Atlas tasks since they don't save them in our account stats here like at -dev so I can look in the Bonc files I hope since Win 11 can be a pain in the ) I just started a new batch and one is a sherpa so if anything happens I will switch on over to the Theory page)

I just had one do this and just for the heck of it did a google and saw this but mine was with a Theory so it couldn't be a core situation or actual disc size or ram on mine so I looked here and see that this one needs to be tossed into the bin
