Can't download

Post by kbless551 »

are the work servers borked this morning? I woke up and my cpu slot said ready and it's work queue said downloading. Been like that for hours. A snip from the log:

Please post the log information noted in the sig of this post.

1) The "Empty work server assignment" means that there are no WUs that can be assigned to your particular hardware/software configuration so we need to know what kind of project you were seeking.

2) The "Access denied" messages indicate that something is wrong with permissions on your system or with the configuration of your installation. Is there more than one user/password in use on your OS?

3) How are you starting FAH?

I've tried re-install with data cleared. and I have started it through advanced control panel, and web control panel.

Mod edit: merged two posts and added Code tags to log listing

"01:23:25:Enabled folding slot 00: READY cpu:7"
Lately the CPU WUs have really hated prime numbers larger than 3.
Try setting CPUs to 6 and see if that helps. (It may be set to -1 now)

The other option to changing the CPU slot setting is to move the Power Slider to Medium. That uses one less than the maximum available CPU cores for folding.

CPU settings that are multiples of 2 and or 3 will work. Sometimes WU's are also available for multiples of 5. Multiples of prime numbers 7 and greater tend not to get assignments. The next release of the client software should handle negotiating assignments for CPU settings such as this for 7 better and automatically try for 6 if nothing is available for 7.
