Hi Everyone, I recently made a post<https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=11538> on the Boinc message boards about some issues the Sourcefinder<http://54.196.169.236/duchamp/> project has been having with VirtualBox. I was told that I should post the issues to the boinc_dev mailing list.
I've compiled a list of the most reported / problematic issues, and I hope someone on here can either provide me with solutions to said issues, or point me to where I can find solutions :). Here's a list of the issues: Vboxwrapper lost communicaion with VirtualBox, rescheduling task for a later time. The task had technically completed, but according to the logs and the user, virtualbox fully re-started the work unit. Reported: http://54.196.169.236/duchamp/forum_thread.php?id=168 Error 194 (0xC2). Work units end computation with that error code whenever the computer is restarted without first closing Boinc and waiting for VirtualBox to suspend the application. This may be un-avoidable, I’m not 100% sure. Reported: http://54.196.169.236/duchamp/forum_thread.php?id=36 Stderr: http://54.196.169.236/duchamp/result.php?resultid=13106 Some work units don’t seem to actually do anything. Looking at the stderr output from some work units, the actual client application simply doesn’t start. This example result had almost no CPU time, despite running for several hours: http://54.196.169.236/duchamp/result.php?resultid=6504 Another user reported work units that appear to continue forever without progressing: http://54.196.169.236/duchamp/forum_thread.php?id=28 Suspended work units wont re-start. One user reported that if they paused work units, they would never resume. Reported: http://54.196.169.236/duchamp/forum_thread.php?id=17 Regards, Samuel Foster _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list boinc_dev@ssl.berkeley.edu https://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
