Number crunching :
"No tasks sent"
(Message 62414)
Posted 9 May 2020 by grindylow Post: I am also curious about an inability to get any tasks. I have a new-ish computer purchased in 2019, running Windows 10. I have allocated twice the resource share to Climate Prediction than any other project. 6 months ago I was receiving tasks, and completing in a week or two tasks that had a deadline a year away. It's been several months since I've received any new tasks, despite dozens of "update requests- often several times a day (for months now). Any theories as to why I suddenly get no tasks when I've successfully completed tasks ahead of schedule- demonstrating my computer is up to the job of crunching this project. I even tried dropping all other projects, So there would be no competition with "Climate Prediction." |

Posted 23 Apr 2009 by grindylow Post: Thank you. Yes, I looked around, and am successfully running these projects at home on a lesser computer, so that is what prompted me to post here. I thought maybe there was a glitch somewhere else in the system that someone might recognize from the "boincmgr" messages I posted. I think you figured it out before, with the file size constraint theory. I have seen that some projects are larger than others, so I will try something smaller, and see whether I can get the files past whatever constraints are in the path outside my computer. Thanks again, you have been most helpful. I hope that you had a look around this site before you started. |

Posted 23 Apr 2009 by grindylow Post: The messages indicate that the files were truncated before all of it was received. Thank you. I am in an academic/research environment. Perhaps I'm bumping up against an institutional limit, although a few days ago I did get a message that a download completed- but BOINC mgr still read "downloading". Could it have been sending another type of file, and not a work file? Unfortunately, I no longer have that message saved. Incidentally, I actually detached from my other projects for a while to see whether that was a problem. They had just finished their work, so I didn't interrupt anything on those projects. Perhaps I can take only the smallest jobs on CPDN, and sneak them past the institutional limits, if that's the problem. |

Posted 23 Apr 2009 by grindylow Post: I have been unable to run any work units for over a week. I get messages such as the ones below. I also get message (not shown) that indicate that downloads were successful. However, in my BOINC manager v. 6.6.20, my "task" status always reads "downloading". I have a T1 line, so a message like this for days on end seems problematical. I've tried suspend-resume and resetting the project, in case there was a corrupted packet or hung bit that needed to be reset. Nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any experience with this?
