This WU and another failed today, both with the same error. Only the file names differ.

Is this a problem with my PC, or with the WUs?

Comparing your yabsd.out with one I have for a running job suggests that it might be a problem relating to the uncompressing of your sulphur_data*.zip file.

                           : FILE EXISTS

If the directory projects/climateprediction.net/sulphur_i8zr_100851463 still exists on your system check the structure of its datain directory. It should match what\'s in sulphur_data*.zip.

If it does the open failure you\'re seeing could possibly be due to an interaction with your virus scanner (file open fails because the virus scanner has locked it). If that\'s the case excluding the BOINC directory from the virus scan should prevent the same thing from happening again.

Interesting, I hadn\'t thought about that aspect. I\'ll check into it when I get home.
