this happens since about 20 minutes ago:
after earlier jobs were finished and uploaded, every new one which is downloaded fails right at the beginning with "computation error" (runtime:0; CPU time: 0). Regardless of what type of WU it is.

The stderr's of these WUs all look this way:

<core_client_version>7.6.22</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<message>
(unknown error) - exit code -44 (0xffffffd4)
</message>
]]>

Thus, my daily quota was finished within short time :-(

any idea what problem this is?

Same here, all units are failing with this error message:


Stderr output

<core_client_version>7.6.33</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<message>
(unknown error) - exit code -44 (0xffffffd4)
</message>
]]>


This is happening on my windows 10 computer. I disconnected my other computer from the network, no errors on that one, right now.


This same error is happening to units downloaded earlier that were previously running well, once the host contacts the server.

Same, http://www.gpugrid.net/workunit.php?wuid=12499116 5 WU Failed on one computer, probably hit daily quota and is disabled now.

thanks, folks, for the quick replies.
So there seems to be something wrong in general with the WUs that are being downloaded currently.

This happens at a very bad time, as I suspect that due to the Easter holidays there will be no one available at GPUGRID to rectify the problem :-(

Hi,
same here .... (unknown error) - exit code -44 (0xffffffd4)... continuously !
With no wu now ... because computer has finished a daily quota of 3 tasks !
After the damage ... now the trik !
Please suspend/cancel this daily quote, thanks in advance.

Same thing here, quota maxed.

Hi!
Also happened on my two pc's;

one win 7 Ultimate 64, Nvidia 680 Gtx Driver 381.65,boinc 7.6.33 and
one win 10 Core 64, Nvidia 970 Gtx Driver 381.65, boinc 7.7.2 .

Tried to reset the latter one, still the same error !

I too am getting "Computation Errors" on all my GPUGrid tasks, currently.

Long runs (8-12 hours on fastest card) v8.48 (cuda65)

yes, this is the remarkable thing - the error occurs on ANY type of task.
No idea, why :-(

We can only hope that someone from GPUGRID notices this problem ASAP. Whether it can be solved quickly - that's another question.

Same issues as listed above, regardless of long/short WUs. Hope we can hear back from the team soon!

Matt's FAQ: What do the application error codes signify? lists "-44 The computer's date is wrong." Mine still looks OK, but I'm getting the same errors as everybody else.

One machine still has a task running, so I'll grab a copy of the files and the workunit/result specifications from client_state.xml: then see what's different about the replacement when I need one.

I experience the same behavior.
I would like to add that from my experience the workunits in progress will also fail with this error if you restart your PC, right after the restart.
See task 16216692, 16216249, 16216581
I've sent a notification e-mail about this to the staff.

Same here :-)

50 failed tasks since 14:46 UTC on the 14th of April. They continue to come and fail.

If this again turns out to be a staff failure, I'm done.

Is this science or science fiction.

Once again, the weekend comes and the junk rolls out.

Why would you ever trust the science of a group who is so careless with their work.

Interestingly enough: on the Project Status page, the number of unsent tasks is going up continuously.

It's because all active hosts have used up their daily quota.

so I guess these are the tasks that are being generated automatically, right?

In this case no. These are simply the failed workunits waiting to be resent to another host, but there's none to send to, because all have used up their dailiy quota.

Keep calm, and set up a backup project (that is a project which has 0 resource share set on the project's webpage).
I suggest Einstein@home or SETI@home.
