1) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : *** Running 32bit CPDN from 64bit Linux - Discussion *** (Message 63515)

Well it is for me, thanks, but the issue of uncertainly still l remains: I see that folks have been confused about this for quite a while. I don't really know why the server stopped working when it did; there was no message that told me so, much less why, and there was no clue on my stats or config pages either: that's tantamount to passive aggressive behavior. I do look at the notices whenever they pop up, and at the Event Log whenever something appears to be amiss, but there was no clue in either place. I read the laments on the threads that people don't look to make sure that the Linux versions of the various apps are working properly, but the communication isn't the most effective.

Anyway, bottom line for me is that removing and reconnecting to the project did the trick.

Thanks for your help, Les, to me and to all of us willing-but-not-always-fully-competent worker bees :-)

Les, to address both your latest post, and to provide an update to my post just preceding it...

I have just (as in 5 minutes ago) removed and reconnected to the cpdn project using the newly-upgraded Ryzen machine I spoke of earlier. BOINC immediately downloaded and began running a WU. So far I'm up and running at... just rolling over 8 minutes. Projected completion for this WU is in 24 days 0 hrs...
Application is "UK Met Office HadAM4", if that is of any value...

I was advised to post in this forum regarding my problem. I hope it's OK to post to this thread regarding this same subject; if not, I apologize, and I'll start a new thread.

I'm unable to receive any WUs on my Linux box (Mint 18.3). The event log says "Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks" but gives no clue as to why. A while ago I updated to 64 bit, but in my ignorance didn't think to check compatibility and didn't install the 32-bit libraries. I resolved that this morning, but am I now on a bad-boy list ?

Additional info: I just swapped the mobo/proc on this machine to a Reizen 5, 16G ram. Perhaps I should disconnect and reattach the project?

Thanks.
4) Message boards : Number crunching : 158 hrs predicted, time sor far 193 hrs, time remaining increasing (Message 52930)

Running Linux Mint 17.1, 64 bit
AMD Phenom II 550 (yes, a bit of a dog), 8GB memory

Running two models ('cos there are two cores), time predicted for each was 158 hrs
Time so far for one is 160 hrs, remaining 39...
For the other is 193 and 43...

Time remaining goes something like this:
43:17:40
43:17:39
43:17:38
43:17:37
43:17:40
43:17:39
43:17:38
43:17:37
43:17:36
43:17:40
43:17:39
43:17:38
43:17:41
43:17:40
43:17:39
43:17:42
43:17:41
43:17:40

and so on - increasing.

Should I expect this to reverse at some point, or is this a lost cause?

it's now peaking 43:17:56...
