Two crashes from today

All crashes from acemd3 in the last days have the same problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Anwendungsname: acemd.exe
Anwendungsversion: 0.0.0.0
Anwendungszeitstempel: 66e42355
Fehlermodulname: acemd.exe
Fehlermodulversion: 0.0.0.0
Fehlermodulzeitstempel: 66e42355
Ausnahmecode: c0000005
Ausnahmeoffset: 0000000000075b6f

All crashes are on Windows 10. The tasks on wsl2 are running.

* GPU temperature is fine, the maximum is 76 Celsius
* CPU temperature is also fine, the maximum is 55 Celsius
* pagefile size has just increased, we will see if it helps...
* memory seems fine, I don't experience any problem with other apps which could caused by a memory issue, but I will run a memtest
* usually, I don't interrupt the calculation (BOINC is set to always run) and my computer is on in all day, but I will keep an eye on this too

Anyway, this could be a bug also because there are other affected hosts as well and I cannot image that all of these computers have memory problems.
Is it possible to ask the ACEMD developers to check the code in parallel?

My host has been crunching these units non-stop without issue.

I initially thought that perhaps this was a Windows-specific problem, since that was the common factor with the people in this thread that complained and had their hosts visible. However, the work units in question were re-assigned to other Windows hosts, and those other processed their respective tasks to completion without issue.

The other possibility that came to mind was the task failing due to running out of VRAM. It's a possibility (especially if the host is being used for other graphical things or is simultaneously running other GPU work units), but in past instances I've seen of this, the task failed with a specific out-of-memory message.

Given that these tasks aren't universally failing, there's also the possibility that those who are reporting issues simply have failing or unreliable hardware. A quick (if perhaps disruptive) way of testing this is to power- or clock-limit the GPU and see if the errors stop.

How can I "unhide" my host to see more details about this problem?

Log in to your home page on this website (https://www.gpugrid.net/myaccount.php).

Under 'Preferences', choose GPUGRID preferences (https://www.gpugrid.net/prefs.php?subset=project).

[don't worry about the error messages - it still works]

Edit the top group - 'Primary (default) preferences'.

Check 'Should GPUGRID show your computers on its web site?' and update. That's all.

unhide your hosts so that the whole error can be seen. any "195" code is not helpful. that's just the generic error from the BOINC app or wrapper. the actual reason for failure could be more embedded in the stderr output and could very well be related to your hardware and software configuration (such as incorrect drivers)

With the server disk space problem is there anyway to get around the limitation on tasks that cane be performed? I get the "This computer has reached a limit on tasks in progress" error since my other WU's are waiting to upload. I did a search but didn't find anything.

Is the alternative to currently not get anymore WU's and wait until the problem is fixed?

Thanks!

* unknown error: https://www.gpugrid.net/result.php?resultid=37053274

It's a bit annoying that 32 tasks were failing from my recent 54 tasks.
It's 59 % of failing rate.

Anyone can help me to solve this?

Hi,
I have created a discord channel for GPUGRID. It kind of duplicates this in some aspects but maybe people are more used to Discord.

It is an additional channel that may help to build up the community.

Those describe themselves as ATMML tasks - the clue is in the name.

There's been a major problem with ATMML tasks in the last 24 hours - all workunits created since around 13:00 UTC yesterday have a systemic failure which cause them to fail very early.

That's the project's problem, not your problem.
