Now all the Coupled Model Full Resolution Ocean WUs are missing files and thus fail to download?

WUs: 8396043, 8396530, 8396167

From stderr.txt for WU 8396167:

<![CDATA[

From what i see from those stderr.txt files only those zip files are nowhere to be found on the server.

Add 1 more failed download (Task ID 15404938 WU 8396167, Coupled Model Full Resolution Ocean).
Boinc hasn't report it yet. 2 or 3 files had "Permanent HTTP error" & after 2/3 times of retrying Boinc gave up. The rest of the model's files downloaded OK.

Byron: Don't forget to load the file! BOINC Manager will read it on start-up or when you select 'Advanced | Read config file'.


From the BOINC Help pages (https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Client_configuration)

If you edit the configuration file while BOINC is running, the changes will take effect only if you select the Advanced / Read config file menu item.

Warning: Any changes in the <log_flags> section will be used immediately after re-read of the config file. Yet a lot of changes in the <options> section will need a complete exit and restart of the BOINC client. They will not take if you just re-read the config file.

@Dave Roberts
Well, one lives & learns.

+100

I'm old enough (not only age wise but BOINC wise as well) to know a bit more/better. I'm in this BOINC business when I joined the original SETI@Home (and I still crunch for it) in June 1999 before BOINC was even conceived. From BOINC 1.x to the latest 7.x version.

@Les & mo.v

Thanks for the explanation.

@mo.v

You were lucky with your downloads unlike me :(
How many times for the downloads?

Avoid the proliferation of buttons? You know how many buttons some projects like to add, don't you? CPDN puts ONLY six, Einstein thirteen!!!!!!

I might be wrong but isn't a reasonable solution to suspend the project and wait until server problems are sorted out. That way, network activity isn't affected on other projects.
I did that a while ago when there were similar problems. I checked each day to see if it was worth a try.
Worked for me and stopped possible loss of results. We can't get any more work at the moment anyway.


As you probably know what is in the transfers tab is not affected by the projects suspended on the projects tab or only that particular WU suspended. In the previous problem with the server running out of disk space, I had both the WUs and the project itself suspended and no new work but the uploads did try to upload. There is no pause/stop button in the transfers tab unfortunately, only abort & retry now.

My point was to show the CPDN people a new twist for the problems they have with the server.

And mo.v wrote before my post to not abort the models. That particular model had started to download on the 16th when only the uploads were affected, not the downloads and it kept trying for 6 days when Boinc decided to abort the WU this morning (22nd) because of too many download errors & retries. The first file of that model (starting with atmos in the file name) was around 36 KB and the other two were between 12MB to 15 MB. None of the model's needed 3 files were able to download, so the model didn't start yet. It wasn't a case for suspending a particular WU so not to produce more files which wouldn't upload. It was a case for not being able to download the complete model.

Post:
At the moment please don't abort models or reset the project or press the Update button in BOINC manager as these actions cannot fix a problem that lies in the server(?). We just have to be patient.


I didn't abort but Boinc 7.0.28 did. It tried from the 16th (hadam3p_eu_61d8_2002_1_008225846_0 - Workunit: 8380970) & today( 22nd) gave up.

Boinc should be patient not we. :)

But all my uploads & of others went through so I thought the problem(s) were fixed that's why the "again". Never mind.

And, of course, I've read both the News and Announcements plus the other threads (Uploads not working, Server out of disk space,...) not to mention my own topic "Permanent HTTP Error".

PS. There are no WUs available on the Server Status page as of this writing and, also of note, is the fact that when I click on any task (completed, in progress,...) in my task list it doesn't load (the workunit & computer columns links work fine but the same happens when I click any task inside the workunit list or the tasks for any of my hosts).
