Topic 193041

Was wondering why my RAC was dropping and I've been getting these very long wu's.

I signed in and here's what I got.

I'm using one of the older enhance apps I think. It's been working fine until about 6 weeks ago.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Client Errors-all of a sudden.

Exit code 10 is documented here.

The Einstein Beta application for Windows (with slight speed-ups) can be found through this thread, but if it works on Windows Millennium I can't say.

There should be no problem with Win ME.

Exit code 10: It means that the App could not resume from a previously written checkpoint. Again, the output listed in stderr out of the result should give a hint why. Most of the errors we get of this type are apparently due to a broken harddisk sector or even filesystems (e.g. some have the checkpoint file point to what looks like a portion of the client_state.xml). Again there's one error of this type we are trying to understand better in order to do something about it: It's an empty checkpoint file, in which case there will be an "EOF encountered" listed at the bottom of stderr out.
================================================

Ok....so what do I do about it? (today I updated boinc to 5,10.13.) Will that perhaps fix it?

Like I said. This machine has been working fine to my knowledge. Of course I haven't logged in to check my completed units in a while. It used to work just fine though.

You can try the Beta app,

You can try the Beta app, version 4.33, it may fix things. See link in my other post.

When was the last time you checked the integrity of the filesystem?

Also, you should do a complete surface scan to check for bad sectors on your disk.

Cheers,
