Post: I don't mind getting the long Theory tasks and have had many over the years here and at -dev But this is the first one like this https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=410306756 Computer ID 10824117 Run time 3 hours 49 min 47 sec CPU time 22 hours 35 min 32 sec Validate state Valid Credit 119.70 I guess it wanted to be like the muti-core cms

Post: We talk about Windows here. Everyone knows that and now you even talk to yourself.......only good thing is it magically made my microwave communications run full speed for some late night reason (another thing you faked like you were an expert at) we all know the reason we even started using Oracle VirtualBox back in 2011 was to work together with the CERN linux servers not just for fun and to repeatedly say VM or Linux every chance we get |

Post: Right. Hence, an updated vbox64_mt_mcore_cms app should be published. AH HA.....now see that is what I was talking about Steff....I didn't have that problem with the few Atlas I ran but CMS doesn't like to behave (maybe Windows too) OK that does look cleaner |

Post: ......as I said I just wish here that we could run a seperate vdi for CMS singles and CMS multi because I have watched the same host switch back and forth without asking it to do that or changing the settings CMS Simulation v70.20 (vbox64) windows_x86_64 to CMS Simulation v60.70 (vbox64_mt_mcore_cms) windows_x86_64 and at -dev that never happens and will just stay running what we ask it to as far as number of cores per task When I changed that host from 8-core multi here to a 4 core multi it instead just gives me a single core task when it is set to get 2 four core tasks (which is what I said in my post} it changed that vdi on its own to CMS Simulation v70.20 (vbox64) windows_x86_64 I just love typing in the dark at 2am but I still hate linux) |

Post: .... and I have tried complete clean reinstalls of everything and they will d/l the vdi and then the tasks just crash.....so I have to keep track of which Theory or CMS will run on them from here and -dev)I had the same a few days ago. See my posts in this thread. First I got the CMS_2022_09_07.vdi what was an exact copy of the dev- project with the same UUID causing the crashes. Yes that is the same thing for me and I thought you may see that since you were over there too CP Not a big deal to me since the whole point is so they run right for members here without problems. |

Post: It sure would be nice if single core and multi-core were made separate from each other in the settings I had one set to run 8 cores and it does this https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=409980514 And if I try 4 cores it switches back to CMS Simulation v70.20 (vbox64) windows_x86_64 (again just now) And then over at -dev they run what I want them to run with CMS Simulation v60.70 (vbox64_mt_mcore_cms) windows_x86_64 (and another problem is I have three matching 8-core hosts and some will run here and not at -dev and the exact opposite too and I have tried complete clean reinstalls of everything and they will d/l the vdi and then the tasks just crash.....so I have to keep track of which Theory or CMS will run on them from here and -dev) |

Post: 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.

Post: 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 |

Post: [quote]I just checked the two I started 7 hours ago and this time they are still running but still stuck at 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) |

Post: Yes, but only for Linux PC's. I knew when I said it was working it would be a jinx Well it worked for 2 days (same happened with Theory) 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. |
