last WU is nearing competion (only 50 hrs to go)
I keep getting
climateprediction.net - 2005-01-31 08:47:50 - Result 3cl9_100177857_0 exited with zero status but no 'finished' file
climateprediction.net - 2005-01-31 08:47:50 - If this happens repeatedly you may need to reset the project.
climateprediction.net - 2005-01-31 08:47:50 - Restarting result 3cl9_100177857_0 using hadsm3 version 4.04

What will happen if i choose to reset the project?
Will I lose the WU again?
Can I keep going without resetting?
[edit] BOINC 4.13, and no I'm not upgrading now ;)[/edit]

No problem.
I'm ready to try again when they've sorted out the problems.

I'll check in from time to time.

So what you are saying is while the classic CPDN is working correctly (never used that one), the BOINC version is flawed?

With 500 hrs done and less then 100 to go, CPDN decided to quit on me again.
It looks that I'll never get any WU's done.

I've detached CPDN on my main PC.
I still have 1 PC running, and will let it go to the end (probably not), and then I'll stop that one 2.

If someone has news of a more stable version of the CPDN client, give me a shout.

Oh, and don't give me the 'your system is unstable' lecture, because both systems are top of the line, standard-running, virus- and malware- free systems.

Am I angry?
No, just dissapointed that i waisted so many hours of CPU-time without any contribution to science.

Good luck to the rest of you.

I had exact the same problem last weekend.

At about 40% completed (400 hrs of work gone).
Standard P IV 2GHz XP SP2 .
So it's not machine or OS related.
6) Questions and Answers : Windows : Unrecoverable error for result 1ypa_100112564_0 ( - exit code -5 (0xfffffffb)) (Message 5881)

Same problem.

After hunders of hours of computing, the outcom was -5 :(
Standard P IV 2.0 GHz 512Mb Mem.
No overclocking, no special HW or SW.
XP SP2.

Shouldn't boinc correct this kind of errors?
If it *is* a HW error, or the system *is* unstable, retry the computation at a later time.
Just discarding hundreds of hours of research is sad :_(
