What I can't/didn't see is the validators going down at all this week - so no-one had to wait for them to come back either

I may have got carried away with things that might have been fixed two weeks ago, but for the 2nd week running the boinc-process server kept running from Wednesday through Friday last week too.
It's a relatively small thing, but that's one fewer annoyance each week.

On the other hand, for the first time in a long time, I’m completely out of work :-(

I see you run the same live projects as me,
The PCs I run remotely allow tasks from all projects and run pretty low on Rosetta most of the time. Lots of WCG tasks to run down each time I visit.
My home PC and laptop only run Rosetta and I keep expecting them to run out, but not only don't they run out, they seem to hold near-full caches too.
I've given up trying to understand why. I just roll with it because they do better on their own than I manage by messing around with them all the time.

Well that's different- the download server (boinc-files.bakerlab.org) is showing on the Server Status page as not running at the moment.

I wonder when they'll notice.

My kiss-of-death rule applies, obviously

It’s back up now but that might explain why there are currently 1947 waiting to download - I’ve not seen it that high in quite a while.

Blimey, it worked about 2hrs later.
And In Progress tasks have gone up by ~40k tasks since too.

Ever since they got their act together things have been working just fine on my end.
Finally can let the computer just do its thing and don't have to check if the project is working or not.

I have not had any Rosetta tasks for over a week. And not very many before that.

I'm taking your advice and will investigate Denis@home..

In addition to Rosetta, I'm already running Milky Way, Einstein, Asteroids and WCG. SETI is done, SkyNet is done. I've given up on SiDock but still holding out hope for Universe.

Universe at Home has died after it's principle researcher died.

It's R.I.P.

Cosmology@Home has been unreachable since January 8, 2004. No reason given why.

boinc.thesonntags.com has been unreachable for months. Reason given was a leak in the wall of the basement room holding the server.

Sid,
If you are running Windows on those remote PC's you can probably get more downloads by running the following Windows script( its a .bat file). It is not displaying the backslash between C: and Program Files, nor between Files and BOINC!

Windows script to keep running updates on Rosetta at Home.
From https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/show_user.php?userid=412375 aka: kotenok2000

cd /d c:Program FilesBOINC
:loop
boinccmd.exe --project https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/ update

TIMEOUT /T 600
goto loop

Anyone running Linux/Ubuntu can use this one running from within the terminal windows of the BOINC folder/sub-directory. It might not run if you are running a different Shell than the default Shell for Ubuntu.


watch -n 300 ./boinccmd --project https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/ update

Thanks. I get it, but I'm kind of ok with what they're all doing tbh.
It gives other projects a bit of a turn on my lesser PCs.
You can see from my sig that the vast majority of time is spent with Rosetta - and a fair part of the WCG credits come from 2 phones because Rosetta is quite rare on Android.

And I note tasks In Progress at Rosetta have risen another 10k since ~10hrs ago

We already scooped up over 150,000 tasks that are being processed.

Tasks ready to send 15
Tasks in progress 157006
Workunits waiting for validation 0
Workunits waiting for assimilation 1436

And from the home page: Successes last 24h: 171,275

So I guess someone has to go kick the server again...

boinc.thesonntags.com has been unreachable for months. Reason given was a leak in the wall of the basement room holding the server.

Cosmology is a DEAD PROJECT. The university abandoned the project around 2 years ago by gradually not renewing the SSL certificate and not fixing website issues.

thesontags / Collatz Conjecture is also a DEAD PROJECT. If my recollection is correct, Project owner moved to different part of the USA after having problems with his prior resident and never restarted the project.

RNA is dead even though BOINC lists it.
SiDock is working on getting a new target. They said this month or next they should be ready.
Right now there is no work.

You might want to explore DENIS@Home if you like medical stuff.
He's trying out a new beta version. It's been pretty steady.
