@Gregg,

Well, it is not supposed to happen ... but, the reason we wanted the messages, all the messages is to see what is happening on your system. What is happening on some other project may be causing the detach on GPU Grid. in other words, a cross-project bug ... project A does something that triggers the detach from project B ... it should not happen, and I am not saying it happens here ... but ... that gap is important ... what happened to GPU Grid does not look to me like something done by the GPU Grid project ...


Paul - I'm certainly not an expert, but the message traffic in BOINC Manager didn't look any different than any other times. Unfortunately, I can't send you the entire message list during the time in question as I have rebooted my computer since that time, and the message list has started over. I'd be happy to recreate the problem if you would like. In the interim, I have just given up and ordered a new GPU - one that is listed as being capable of running GPUGRID.

Alain - I use BAM. However, BAM appears to support GPUGRID. It is listed in the projects list that you use to attach to a project through BAM.

Your answer shows that you haven't attached GPUGRID project at BAM.
So Alain is right. :- )

At every contact between BOINC manager and BAM you get detached from GPUGRID.
Please go to the BAM web site and attach there GPUGRID.

Ah yes ...

Over the holiday season I sent a long list of my experiences with BAM to Willy, to which he replied (thank you Willy) and though we did not completely agree on all things, he did make some changes to BAM.

The AM to client and back again communication was one of the areas I noted did not work well ... though I concentrated on the NNT aspects, this would seem to be another. That if you attach on the client and NOT on BAM, it does not communicate that information UP to BAM ...

Oops. I really misspoke. I meant to say that I used BOINCstats to attach to GPUGRID. However, GPUGRID is in the list of projects that you can sign up for on BOINCstats. I'm soooo confused!

To attach succesfully to a (new) project under BAM one needs to do the following: go to your BAM account and

1. under tab sign-up for projects: select create account (first time) or find account (rejoining) for the project(s) you want to run.
2. under tab project resources: default is 100, change it if you like. Here you can also choose to attach all your new hosts by default.
3. under tab host list: when you attach your (new) host to BAM a host name will be created and addded to this list. Select the relevant host. A list is shown of all projects you signed up for. Make sure the button Attach? is selected for the projects you want to run on this particular host (omitting do to this will lead to this host being detached from the project next time your host contacts BAM).

A bit wieldy I know, but it works fine if you follow the rules above.

Kind regards

Alain
