Just out of curiosity, my Linux PC has been receiving Quantum Chemistry, beta test v3.32 (mt). PC number 258077. Is that supposed to happen? I was under the impression that the beta test tasks were for windows only.

Same for me, but they ran OK, so they must be for Linux.

Is there any drivers in the package? I had some stability issues with my computer, which I never saw before. I had one bug check that indicated python as culprit, I doubt it but just checking.

I just picked up some of the beta test 3.33 tasks on two different Windows machines. After 10+ minutes, it looks like the tasks are only using one thread.

After 15+ minutes, one of the machines got this error message:

Debug Error!
Program: C:\ProgramData\BOINC\slots\0\qmml3\pythin.exe
abort() has been called
(Press Retry to debug the application)

Let me know if you need more information.

[Edit] After 22 minutes, the second machine received the same error and the task aborted.

There are no "device drivers" needed. The app is CPU only: it might crash, but shouldn't affect your PC.

The root error is here

PSIO_ERROR: unit = 97, errval = 10
PSIO_ERROR: 10 (lseek failed)


your machine appears to be the only one with this specific failure. Do you have space in your HDD, or other uncommon setups (e.g. FAT instead of NTFS)?

The error happened on two different computers. Machine 476647 has 100 GB disk space available to BOINC. HDD is formatted as NTFS. I can't think of anything that is non-standard.

Both machines have VirtualBox installed, but that is something that is encountered often in the volunteer computing world.

Let me know if you have more questions.

I see the same on 2 computers, one has 238GB free with boinc allowed to use upto 218GB.


The other has 366GB free with same settings.

I clicked ignore and it seemed to do something, but not full CPU load.

These WUs are failing indeed. I have no obvious explanation but am investigating. Thanks.

If you receive beta WUs for linux, the you will get them for windows too. I had to cancel all outstanding ones because of a nasty bug (which raised a debug dialog).

NOTE: This should be in the Linux section, not Windows, so you can move it, though I expect it would apply to either.

This one failed with "196 (0xc4) EXIT_DISK_LIMIT_EXCEEDED".
http://www.gpugrid.net/result.php?resultid=18977559

The BointTasks message is:
Aborting task 1718_36_33_32_50_14f550fc_n00001-SDOERR_SELE6-0-1-RND8308_2: exceeded disk limit: 61716.49MB > 57220.46MB


However, I retain 96 GB free in my root partition, and the BOINC startup message says: "max disk usage: 184.49 GB".

So apparently that limit is coming from somewhere else(?).

Message 50638 - Posted: 3 Oct 2018, 5:36:51 UTC

any progress with the planned QC app for Windows?

If I look at the Project Status page, it currently shows the following:

Long runs (= GPU tasks) unsent: 1,550; in progress: 3,634; users: 1,002
Quantum Chemistry unsent: 179,513; in progress: 550; users: 71

this shows a vast imbalance, the reason for which is that QC CPU tasks are still available for Linux users only.

And not all distro are welcome.
I tried some major distro and i have some problems (for example with Fedora).
No problems with "old" Mint

I am running SuSE Leap 42.3 on my main Linux box, and Leap 15.0 on my HP laptop. The kernel of Leap 15.0 is more advanced and is equal to that of the Enterprise version of SuSE Linux, SLES.It is also being updated regularly, while updates of 42.3 seem finished. But I have most of my tools on it, including Kaffeine, and it runs GPUGRID tasks, both CPU and GPU since the box has a GTX 750 Ti GPU board.

Do you have a task number to check?

Thanks. What distro is it? Is it updated (i.e. security patches?). The other problem seems to be that the failure was not seen as such, and thus restarted.
