1) Message boards : Number crunching : Howto for aarch64 machines (ODROID C2, Pine64, Banana PI HC5...) (Message 4405) Posted 24 Jul 2020 by zombie67 [MM] Post: RP4 is now common, and Raspberry Pi 64bit (aarch64) is available. Any chance for a 64 bit Universe ULX app that just works?
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Work Unit Status? (Message 2273) Posted 10 Jun 2017 by zombie67 [MM] Post: You are getting the ULX tasks? I cannot get any, even thought the server status page says they are available.
3) Message boards : Number crunching : UV reionization tasks FAILNG (Message 1527) Posted 6 Sep 2016 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Let's put aside the differing rates of failure for now. Do we know the cause of the failures? Is anything being done to fix the problem?
4) Message boards : Number crunching : Computer not receiving Work units (Message 1466) Posted 31 Aug 2016 by zombie67 [MM] Post: I think one of two possibilities: 1) Server Status page is broken. It is showing that tasks are available, when in reality, there are none. or 2) A homogeneous redundancy problem I have seen in the past at other projects. All the tasks available are for one particular rare combination of OS and CPU type that no one but the admin and a few others are running. And no tasks available for most of the users who have more common combinations of OS and CPU type. For what it is worth, I have 1 linux machine (64 bit linux mint), 8 windows machines (Win 7 64 and win 10 64), and 11 Macs (latest OS). All are 64 bit intel CPUs. None are getting any tasks. All are being told none available.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : server broken for android (Message 765) Posted 19 Nov 2015 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Everything seems to be working normally for my windows clients. But when my android client tries to communicate with the server, it gets error messages: 70394 Universe@Home 11/18/2015 4:57:07 PM Sending scheduler request: Requested by user. 70395 Universe@Home 11/18/2015 4:57:07 PM Requesting new tasks for CPU 70396 Universe@Home 11/18/2015 4:57:15 PM [error] Can't parse workunit in scheduler reply: unexpected XML tag or syntax 70397 Universe@Home 11/18/2015 4:57:15 PM [error] No close tag in scheduler reply
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Something is messy on the project prefs page (Message 754) Posted 17 Nov 2015 by zombie67 [MM] Post: PROBLEM STILL EXITS! I have changed my preferences for home and work several times in past 6 weeks or so but IT NEVER PROPAGATES TO THE CLIENT/PC/TABLET... CLIENT SEEMS TO ONLY READ "DEFAULT" PREFERENCES when IT communicates with the project server(s). I can confirm the same problem. Set up preferences for one of the alternative locations. Assign a machine to that alternative location. Machine still gets default location settings.
7) Message boards : Number crunching : Large upload Files (Message 109) Posted 27 Feb 2015 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Funny, this morning i had the idea to ask zombie :D Zombie, do you have such problems with uploads & deadlines? IIRC your location was california? At first, the machines would download way too much work, and everything runs in panic mode. I think the time estimates for the tasks may be too small. However, the BOINC client will apply a Duration Correction Factor to the project as tasks complete. So now my queue is normal size and not running in panic mode. With regard to the uploads, they usually take ~3 minutes to upload. With task run times of several hours, the uploads never get backed up for me.
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Large upload Files (Message 106) Posted 27 Feb 2015 by zombie67 [MM] Post: That's true, there must be such an option, afaik Gerasim@home crew uses it. Gerasim uses custom BOINC on the server side. They re-wrote it to run on windows for some reason. In doing so, they changed many features.

10) Message boards : News : Project officialy started (Message 22) Posted 21 Feb 2015 by zombie67 [MM] Post: OK, now it works. I stopped using BS BAM, added manually Universe@Home using Manager. It downloaded all project files and started crunching. Then I restarted using BS BAM. All seems to be OK, though these steps are quite laborious. I am guessing the problem is with BAM, not with the project.
11) Message boards : News : Project officialy started (Message 19) Posted 21 Feb 2015 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Because all of them gone. I will do some more WU's soon. Yep. Plenty of tasks now.
12) Message boards : News : Project officialy started (Message 16) Posted 21 Feb 2015 by zombie67 [MM] Post: I detached from the test project to avoid confusing BOINC. I am doing all the detach/attach directly with BOINCmanager, not BAM. I am not getting the error. However, I cannot get any work. w-thanos 98881 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:45 AM Sending scheduler request: To fetch work. 98882 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:45 AM Requesting new tasks for CPU 98883 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:45 AM [sched_op] CPU work request: 2086269.74 seconds; 12.00 devices 98884 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:45 AM [sched_op] miner_asic work request: 0.00 seconds; 0.00 devices 98885 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:45 AM [sched_op] AMD/ATI GPU work request: 0.00 seconds; 0.00 devices 98886 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:47 AM Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks 98887 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:47 AM [sched_op] Server version 705 98888 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:47 AM No tasks sent 98889 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:47 AM Project requested delay of 7 seconds 98890 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:47 AM [sched_op] Deferring communication for 00:00:07 98891 Universe@Home 2/21/2015 6:21:47 AM [sched_op] Reason: requested by project
