I really DO NOT like the new CPU scheduler on Boinc 4.43. At first, it would never run CPDN, then when I suspended all other projects, it was fine. Now for the last week, all it has been crunching is CPDN, and the report deadline is now 12/31/1901. What happened, did the Y2K bug finally hit? All my other projects, have been doing nothing the last week or so. On my dads, machine, since I updated to 4.43, at the end of May, it hasnt returned a WU for ANY project.
ARRRGGGHHHH!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
EDIT. just saw a new version was out, have downloaded and installed. Still same problem with CPDN.
Not sure if its a CPDN prob or Boinc… but as long as those deadlines show 1901 it’ll definitely not crunch anything but those…
104 years will definitely set in panic mode
BTW…now that I looked Ive got a cpu at parents house thats only contacted once since 4.43, and that was when I manually made it update settings… last contact was 8 days ago… 5 day cache… might have to check on that one myself
MIne still won’t download SETI WUs. I tried suspending all my Predictor lines, but it kept downloading more Predictor lines. I don’t know what else to try.
If you’re not already running 4.45 you should probably consider upgrading it. There are quite a number of scheduler changes. As for the scheduler itself, there is a page explains it here: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/sched.php
I’v updated to 4.45 and it’s now downloading SETI units. It has this odd phrase in it against some WUs. It’s saying they are “pre-empted”. Any ideas what this means at all?
