Missing 2 Protomol Units

Post by Monterone »

Hello,

I recently completed 2 Protomol-Units (yesterday and the day before yesterday) and they have not been credited yet. I also get a strange behavior in HFM.NET. The points that are shown there for the Protomol-Units are extremely high, if I "toggle" the Bonus PPD.

I'm not sure, but the projects should be the following:

P:10009, R: 2392/C:0/G:84
P:10014, R: 4146/C:0/G:87

Best regards
Moterone

Please note that while there are plans to have the Bonus Points for the Classic Client, I haven't read any announcement about it being implemented. My guess is that there is a glitch somewhere (PSummary?). Regarding the WUs, you will have to wait for an Admin/Mod to do a lookup.

K values are sometimes added to standard CPU works units by mistake. From past experience, it's a bug in how the WUs were created/sent to the work server. HFM simply reads the K value, and assumes a bonus when not a zero value. HFM doesn't have sanity error checking to prevent showing a bonus on CPU work units, and apparently, neither does Stanford to prevent K values from being assigned to CPU WUs. ;)


P.S. They would prefer you post the work unit info in the same format as it appears on the fahlog.txt file. Makes it easier for you, as you can simply cut and paste, and easier for the Mods to search, as that is the format the search tool uses, so they can cut and paste as well. :)

Example: Project: 10009 (Run 2392, Clone 0, Gen 84)

Thanks.

Well, I considered the HFM-thing as a bug of that program. I never had that behavior before and it appeared just at the time, that 2 (!) Protomol-WUs were not credited. I just wanted to know, if the WUs are lost, which I mentioned above.

By the way, isn't the bonus just added to the bigadv-SMP-WUs? I'm using 2 classic clients.

Correct. Bonuses only apply to SMP and SMP -bigadv, at this time.

The same with Project 10015 (R:4598/C:0/G:85). Any ideas, what I can do? It makes no sense for me to keep on folding on these WUs, if they are not uploaded correctly. That's a waste of energy. The units from my other client (mostly GROMACS; on advmethods) are obviously uploaded.
