I suppose BoincTasks, because I also see this behaviour sometimes at my host. Regards Odi |

one of tasks is running for 16 hours, on core 2 duo 2Ghz machine, and it is marked "Time out - too late" on server. Should i abort it, or it will finish well and validate ? http://yafu.dyndns.org/yafu/workunit.php?wuid=570626 found in another topic In the last days I increased the time until you get credits after the deadline. So you will get credits also up to 48h after the deadline. fine to me - i'll leave it crunching |

Not in my case - C_1051327250110_430_0 no longer useable - ran about 24hrs. Message: is no longer usable. Did I lose 24hrs of CPU time, or will there be credit? I do not see any pending credit. This is the 1st WU with which I've had trouble. Unfort., w/the longer WUs, I hope it is not the last. I would like 2 keep crunching the project... Thanks, S. Horse |

Your deadlines are to short. I have a WU that has 11 days to finish, but the deadline is one day. I will abort this task as it is hogging the cpu. If according to your answer in you are not going to increase the deadline, therefore I shall not run this project anymore. It is very sad when administrators do not listen to volunteers. |

No workunit runs longer than 24h. The most are much less and credits are also granted if the workunit returns up to 10 days after the deadline. I listen to the volunteers! |

That happens all time, in fact, I can`t finnish any task on time. They started too late use 2 cores and can`t validate on time. Something you are doing wrong because all other projects are going fine. One more task that won`t finnish on time. Your time for the task is too short. Duke |

But I will keep on doing the project. I know you are doing your best YoYo. I will keep trying from time to time. |

I checked the first 3 WUs on your list. The dedline for them is not passed. So I don't understand your problem? yoyo |

yafu_C106_1331495706_321_0 missing from web site still on computer running at time of post. since it is not on the web site and the host runs it out will it be usable to you? I have no problem. |

The server doesn't know this wu anymore. So you should abort it. yoyo |

Was the workunit already running or not? If it was not yet running it is ok to abort it after the deadline. yoyo |

Was the workunit already running or not? The workunit was running, otherwise I had not posted this message. ;-) 43702 yafu 19.07.2012 09:11:14 Starting task yafu_C111_1342495527_6_0 using yafu version 13201 Matthias |

I didn't change anything (only a new server version was installed). I still have in place. The workunit isn't anymore in the DB, so I can't really verify it. Think we should keep an eye on it if it happens again. Maybe there is now a bug in the scheduler. yoyo |
