1) Message boards : Number crunching : Server out of disk space (Message 2914) Posted 18 Apr 2025 by entity Post: They have been there for 10 years (Project started in 2015). Here's my post from June 2023 for the same problem: https://denis.usj.es/denisathome/forum_thread.php?id=264#2117
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Server out of disk space (Message 2909) Posted 18 Apr 2025 by entity Post: I'll respond with this, The APPLICATION is beta, not the infrastructure at the University. The infrastructure has been in place for many years and there hasn't been any indication that there has been significant changes that need to be tested and problems worked out. The problems we are seeing is infrastructure related and not an application issue. Several years ago, this same infrastructure had the same server disk space issues. When the application is listed as beta I would expect the WUs themselves to have problems from time to time but that isn't the case here. WUs are actually executing quite nicely. I understand that nothing is perfect but at least try to mitigate the consequences when problems arise such as stopping work generation until the disk space is cleared.
3) Message boards : Number crunching : Server out of disk space (Message 2903) Posted 18 Apr 2025 by entity Post: Now have close to 600 WUs ready to upload. I have a nagging suspicion that A LOT of work is going to miss deadlines and a bunch of resends are going to issued resulting in a lot of wasted CPU time that could have used toward other projects.
4) Message boards : Number crunching : Server out of disk space (Message 2897) Posted 17 Apr 2025 by entity Post: I have almost 300 waiting to upload and growing by the minute. My largest server isn't crunching Denis at the moment but will be in about an hour which will make the situation worse. Maybe the wise move is to stop generating work right now and deal with the server issues. Once they are cleared, then generate new work. Remember, these are beta tasks.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : permanent HTTP error (Message 2890) Posted 17 Apr 2025 by entity Post: Mine were 8.0.4 and wouldn't attach but upgrading to 8.2.0 fixed the problem it seems.
6) Message boards : Number crunching : permanent HTTP error (Message 2886) Posted 17 Apr 2025 by entity Post: Just upgraded one of my Ubuntu boxes to the newly available 8.2.0 boinc-client and now it seems to work. I don't know if the fix is the new client or just reinstalling any client fixes the problem. It now seems to work though.
7) Message boards : Number crunching : No WU's being sent? (Message 2873) Posted 15 Apr 2025 by entity Post: I have 271 wus waiting to report but now my host is getting the following error in response to the scheduler request: Tue 15 Apr 2025 06:02:42 PM CDT \| DENIS@home \| Scheduler request to https://denis.usj.es/denisathome_cgi/cgi failed: Error 524 Seems to possibly be a timeout condition. Update: Finally completed but was accompanied by several (about 10) resent lost task messages.
8) Message boards : Number crunching : No WU's being sent? (Message 2870) Posted 15 Apr 2025 by entity Post: Just received 949 Denis Beta tasks on one of my servers, so something has broken free somewhere. what are the host details? what OS and client version? nothing new on my end. Linux hosts with <8.0.x client still can't communicate. Linux Fedora 41 with BOINC Client 8.0.4. This combination has worked since the start but hadn't received any work units in the past few days. Then all of sudden it is loaded with work. Interestingly, it's seems to be mostly resends (_2). It's like someone turned on the validater and all the pending work didn't validate which resulted in about 1000 resends so far. They are still coming in. Most of this since 1700 UTC: State: All (1933) · In progress (1069) · Validation pending (795) · Validation inconclusive (0) · Valid (69) · Invalid (0) · Error (0) Application: All (1933) · Beta of DENIS-fiber (1933) · Beta of DENIS-myocyte (0) · Human ventricular cell models optimization (0) · New human ventricular cell model (0)

10) Message boards : Number crunching : permanent HTTP error (Message 2840) Posted 13 Apr 2025 by entity Post: 8.0.4 doesn't work for me on Ubuntu but does work with Fedora 40 and 41. What I haven't tried is a delete and complete re-install of the same BOINC client. Problem is, I have about 30 projects defined to BOINC and each has an app_config file. I don't want to have to rebuild all of that.

13) Message boards : Number crunching : permanent HTTP error (Message 2590) Posted 26 Mar 2025 by entity Post: It was already running 8.0.4 on Ubuntu
14) Message boards : Number crunching : permanent HTTP error (Message 2586) Posted 26 Mar 2025 by entity Post: I'm running 8.0.4 and have been for many months. I'm getting the 403 error on my linux machine. Update: Works fine with Fedora 40 and 41 with client 8.0.4. All my Ubuntu and Ubuntu derivatives (PopOS) fail with 403 Update2: Ubuntu is at 24.04 LTS level
15) Message boards : Number crunching : Invalid tasks (Message 2144) Posted 3 Jul 2023 by entity Post: Most of my invalids look like my Linux machine was being compared to the output of a Windows machine and my result was marked invalid when the result from another Windows machine was returned. Maybe the project should consider implementing Homogeneous Redundancy. Looking at the last 1000 WUs just sent to me, it looks there is a considerable resend burden on the server. A significant percentage of the work just sent is resends.
16) Message boards : Number crunching : Invalid tasks (Message 2139) Posted 26 Jun 2023 by entity Post: I currently have 126 invalid tasks which is more than I'm used to seeing with other projects. This project seems to have more invalids than other projects but mine is less than 1% of the total number computed. Some projects feel that is acceptable.
17) Message boards : Number crunching : Server Out of Space (Message 2117) Posted 19 Jun 2023 by entity Post: I have about 585 WUs waiting upload. Getting messages in the the client log about server being out of space. Just posting for the record as I assume the admins know about the problem.
18) Message boards : News : Status of the project // Estado del proyecto (Message 2109) Posted 17 Jun 2023 by entity Post: I noticed we now have Beta work (Myocyte). Is there a new piece of the project getting ready to start?
19) Message boards : Number crunching : Invalid task (Message 2082) Posted 21 Apr 2023 by entity Post: Most projects get to about 150 then stabilize around that point. This project reached close to 3000 pending before work ran out and it started declining. Not complaining, just curious as it seems like a lot of pending work.
20) Message boards : Number crunching : Invalid task (Message 2080) Posted 19 Apr 2023 by entity Post: I now have 2,353 WUs pending validation and it is growing every hour. Is this normal?
