I am not sure whether I have a problem or not. I finished the WU hadsm3mh_kpbr_006311059_2. At the end the “to completeion” froze at 1:43 and the “status“ now reads “computation error.” However, the timestep count (in graphics) went all the way to 259248 and went into “post processing,” The messages (shown below) seem to show that the zip file uploaded successfully. Did the server get the results of the WU? If it didn’t I still have a backup copy that I can restore and run it to the end again.

The task is here. It looks good to me, all timesteps present and correct plus all graphs which must mean that all the files were received and valid.

I think the application version and stderrout should now show and don\'t. Even if they don\'t this is a Boinc thing and not the first time we\'ve seen strange things on a model\'s web page. Maybe they\'ll catch up later. IIRC the model\'s also still classified as \'New\' but I wouldn\'t worry about that because we\'ve seen truly crashed models classified as successes. Well, if a model\'s still supposedly new the app version and stderr out can\'t show.

It looks to me as if everything the researchers need is there.

Dear Mo:


Thanks for the help. It is good to know that the upload seems to have been excepted. I think that I may have found the reason for the “computation error” status of the WU. Below find details from my account page. It seem to say that there are “errors Too many total results.” Would this cause the problem.

Jim,
There is a lot of post-phase processing in this model type. Notwithstanding the error messages in stderr, the graphs show a classic result. All 4 phase graphs are there and the credit is right. You can also see the middleware affecting the results by a small amount when comparing precipitation and temperature graphs of your task 9331754 AMD/XP and the other completed task 9331752 Intel/Linux.

---

\'Too many total results\' doesn\'t affect in any way the models already sent out.

Did all 6 zip file (3 per WU) upload properly? If not I still have a backup that I could run to the end again.

Yes, they all uploaded with no problems Jim. Here they are with the start and finish messages paired off:

thank you! It is nice to know that after all the crunching the results are getting back to the servers properly.

---

Is there a problem with the servers? I just finished an AM3P and all three zip files are presently stuck in the “transfer” tab. The on “status” on zip file 1 and 2 reads “uploading”. I also can’t download new work. I have the “FAMOUS” model selected and the “server status” indicates that there are over 100 of them available, but, messages tells me none are available and to make another selection.

---

The servers may have filled up again, in which case the programs will shut down,
and Milo will get emails about the problem.
\'Murphy\' always likes to cause this to happen on public holidays. :)

As for FAMOUS models, you also need to look at the Applications page, which shows that the program associated with that model type is no longer there.

Because of the mutterings about the stability / reliability of the FAMOUS models, the application has been withdrawn, and will be replaced by the next version. This now won\'t happen until after Easter, when some more testing will also have been done.

Backups: Here

Jim, Milo says the two servers that HadAM3P uploads files to both appear to be working normally.

Dear Mo:

Sorry for the above post. The problem seems to have been a connectivity problem at my end. Rebooting modem and router seems to have fixed the problem. Mea Culpa.
