gpu WUs not assigning from 171.67.108.201:80

[fab@fold]

thx, already done that... booted the pc and the modem... i point out that at the beginning of the problems, 2 days ago, only the gpu download was halted, the cpu was successfully donwloading... after i reinstall the client yesterday (AFTER the successuff cpu wu download in the log), also the cpu got stuck... other clients like boing are working ok, last try of yesterday was joining a new boinc project, and the client correctly downloaded both the program EXE and some WUssss... it appears that only the f@h client is affected by this problem...

I'd check your AV programs again to find if any of them are blocking the folding client or cores

[fab@fold]

all AV programs are disabled in main PC... and the other PC in my home network, that shows the same behaviuor, does not even have an AV installed....

[7im]

AV software doesn't always disable itself fully. You might try booting to safe mode with networking.

[fab@fold]

done..rebooted in safe mode with networking... i checked that internet connection was working, all ok, but folding client had the same problem... no wu download..

Question for the gurus: Why is FS01 (GPU?) trying to connect to the Classic AS on 171.67.108.200:8080 ? But the port 80 attempt looks better.

David

That cannot be explained unless the wrong IP is being provided by a DNS lookup.

A GPU slot should start with 171.67.108.201 or 171.64.65.160 on port 8080 and if that one fails, try the other one on port 80.

[fab@fold]

thx Bruce, after all the verifictions i'm also brought to think that there's a problem with my ISP (that, by the way, is italian's largest......) tonight i will try changing my DNS primary server from 192.168.1.1 to a public DNS lookup server and see how it goes....... can someone tell my the details about a test (tracert ?) that i could perform, i.e. what is the expected routing of ip address to expect when tracing (what address ?) ?

[bruce]

The primary GPU assignment server has multiple aliases and I'm not sure which one is used inside FAHClient. The most obvious one is vsp10v-vz01.stanford.edu. If that one works correctly and the client is using a different one that is misdirected, I can't help you at this moment.

[fab@fold]

nope, i tried 2 different dns servers, dind't work.. i have ruled out everything i could on my side... maybe i'll try again in the future.. thx everyone for their efforts,
Fab

somehow i managed to better the situation... i fired up an image of my s.o. of a week ago, with an installed working version of the client... when it re-finished to cpu wu, it got stuck in updating the a3 core... here's what it says in the log :

Code: Select all

15:03:40:WU00:FS00:Downloading core from http://www.stanford.edu/~pande/Win32/AMD64/Core_a3.fah

15:03:40:ERROR:WU00:FS00:Exception: Failed to read stream

then i get this one, don't know what it means, i have a r9 280x gpu :

Code: Select all

15:04:46:WU01:FS01:0x17:Completed 4625000 out of 5000000 steps (92%)
15:04:46:WU01:FS01:0x17:Temperature control disabled. Requirements: single Nvidia GPU, tmax must be < 110 and twait >= 900

[PantherX]

For the CPU (FS00) error message, I have seen this error due to:
1) Incorrect permissions to run the application
2) Security application detecting it as a threat and causing issues
3) Can't write to the save location (path where F@H works from)
4) Insufficient disk space

Regarding the GPU (FS01) message, that is a temperature control feature but it only works on a single Nvidia GPU system. You can safely ignore it and your GPU should function normally.

Hi there!

I am pushing this topic, as I too, seem to have a connectivity issue with this specific server that has been going on for a couple of hours now.
Also I read through all the steps and hints at what to do first, as well as the suggestions already posted here in this thread. So long nothing did work out and my GPU keeps getting error messages.

I know that the servers are up and running and seemingly without problems (http://fah-web.stanford.edu/pybeta/serverstat.html). Strange thing, that I am able to ping/tracert just this one: 171.64.65.160
171.67.108.201 can not be even ping'ed.

So if it is an issue on my side, I would not know where to look. There is no AV blocking, there has not been a change to the system (hard or software), and it has been working fine for almost three weeks now.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you very much!

I've contacted PG about it. According to the server page, the servers have no work, nor should anything be being assigned to them.

Do note that today is a national holiday (Memorial day) so their staff may be limited.
