odd SMP occurrence

[The Black Pumpkin]

I've run SMP on the X2 for 7 units now (working on , and all but one have finished. (The other one is my fault. )

Anyway, anyone who looks at my stats can tell I have smp going, 1760 here, that there. But in the actual program, it always says it has failed to send results, and the program keeps trying and failing and waiting (and so on) until the deadline is up. But if you look at my score, they have gone through. WTF?!

[dicecca112]

when's the last time you've updated the SMP client?

[The Black Pumpkin]

I have 5.91 beta 5. Is there a new one?

[dicecca112]

yup it is. What flags do you have running?

[The Black Pumpkin]

Just -forceasm, and I've only had that on there for a few days. It's been running about two weeks now I think.

You also need to use the "-smp" switch as well!

[dicecca112]

not unless he's running linux, which I doubt, the windows client for smp is still 5.91. You can't run SMP with the windows client in version 6

[The Black Pumpkin]

Yep, I'm using the Windows client.

[dicecca112]

can you post the log where the problem occurs?

Folding@Home Client Shutdown.

[dicecca112]

add the flag -configonly to your shortcut, remove all other flags.

Then turn "Use IE settings" option to No.

[The Black Pumpkin]

Ok, what about the proxy setting it asks about right after that? (I'm a network n00b, it's everything else that I sorta get )

[dicecca112]

standard setting is fine, unless you connect via a proxy. But since you asked, I doubt you do so leave the default

[The Black Pumpkin]

Ok then, we'll see how this works out when the next wu finishes. Till then!

[skier]

on the computer i was using at school , i had to set it through a Proxy(i used the one that it auto sets to when you allow it) and they would send after that; i think because some setting in IE wouldnt let it, and i couldnt change anything(not an admin.) and good news also- i should be folding @ school 24/7 from today until january 3rd or whenever we go back unless someone shuts it off(i told the teach not to shut it off right before i left today) its only a P4 2.0GHz but hey, it still counts

[The Black Pumpkin]

Problem solved for the first one I tried after we fiddled! The next will be done tonight or tomorrow morning, so we'll see if it holds up!
