anyway, right now i succeeded in sending ONE, and ONLY ONE WU of the two WUs done... hopefully the second will be sent... someday...

Have you tried using the (-send all) flag to attempt to force it to send?

*headquarter84* · 08-07-2007

-send all...

Folding@Home Client Shutdown.

@Arachne, no, i'm not using the IE settings..

...

well, i'm using the Win GUI version oof the client, is it better to use the console?... or is it just like, less clutter?... and, is there anyway i can actually... hide it?! i won't really be happy having a command window floating all over the place!!! or does that mean i should run it as a service?

*Bob* · 08-07-2007

I'm having OC problems now so i have to shut down and see what's up. I bumped my processor up last night and came back in from BBQ'ing today and had to pop the battery and set jumper. Put it back like it needs to be and reset my bios

...................

I had just finished a WU and waiting to see if it got sent in.

**Arachne** · 08-07-2007

Well that particular server looks alright from the status page.

Hopefully Zevia or jwill can adbise you about the console as I don't use it (SMP here).

*headquarter84* · 08-07-2007

that's alright... still crunching on though...

that Server showed that "OK" message once i tried to open it using Firefox, so yes, the problem is NOT from the server...

still trying some stuff... hopefully waiting for ANYTHING

...

**Dee-27** · 08-07-2007

@headquarter84
I had the exact same problem with the Windows GUI version. I ended up with several completed units that wouldn't send and no manual way that i could see of sending them.
Not much help, but i gave up on it and started using the Linux SMP client and haven't looked back since.
At least the Windows console version would allow you to send the WU manually with the -send xx (unit no) or -send all (send all units in the queue).

@rolling
If you get a OC problem again, here is tip that should allow you to recover without pulling the battery and resetting CMOS.

Pull all memory sticks except one, The PC should boot to the BIOS and allow you turn back the FSB or make any other changes. Save the BIOS then close down and refit your ram sticks.

Thank you for the tip Dee

I didn't know that.

*headquarter84* · 08-07-2007

uffff...

... so it's of no use... i only don't know why i haven't yet installed the waiting-in-the-box Suse!!!
thanx anyway Dee

Run the console version as a service .. set & forget

i'm inspecting the console, and what i'm searching for is the ability to have full control over it, the -config switch doesn't give me the option to change the CPU use percentage though... that's all what i'm asking for

i'm tuning the % down to 60% during the hot day's hours, and back to 100% while it's dark and cool

...

so, i don't really like the fact of turning the Win GUI ver. on just to throttle up, then having to shut it down, or kill the GUI task to get back to the console :*(

*debro* · 10-07-2007

Check the advanced settings using the -config.

I don't think it gives you the option to throttle the CPU use

If it's any consolation, Vista & Linux have Power modules inbuilt (and activated by default) which allow you to use profiles including CPU throttling

*headquarter84* · 12-07-2007

well, currently i'm using a console/GUI split-time-module™... you know... i just run the one i feel i like, in the time i like... and i just opened the case and have a BIG UGLY fan making some hurricane near the CPU... it's getting me some 4°-6° less

... i'm trying not to decrease the speed...

and hopfeully, at last, i'm going to install Linux (Suse 10.2) during the next week as i have some semi-free time now... hope it's gonna be better for F@H

**Womble** · 13-07-2007

Looks like I am going to have to give up on the SMP for a while. The past two I had I couldn't complete in the time frame because I don't leave the computers on overnight.

Oh well, back to the 230 pointers for a while.

That sucks...I don't often leave mine on overnight either but they usually do fine completing within preferred deadlines.

*headquarter84* · 16-07-2007

ok, now i really need some advice, WU 3 and 5 are not yet sent

would reinstalling make any difference? cause i've tried everything, checked the firewalls, changed ISPs, is it better to backup and uninstall, then reinstall again??
or what do you suggest

?

*headquarter84* · 17-07-2007

nobody there?..

would installing the beta be of any help?

still waiting for advise...

*crossg* · 17-07-2007

I'm a bit confused but that's normal for me latley.

Are you running the GUI or SMP? If you can find the config open it with notepad and let us have a look at the settings.

*debro* · 17-07-2007

Do you have it set to use your proxy settings? or IE settings?
Try doing the opposite

At work here, we are supposed to go through a proxy, but it doesn't work too well & it holds up the queue. Setting it to use IE settings ( not through the proxy) it doesn't work either

No proxy, no IE & it all works cheerfully

*headquarter84* · 17-07-2007

i'm using the GUI and the console sometimes... no SMP compatible CPU though... the "generic" version is running here...

and no, i'm not using a proxy, nor am i using IE Settings...

Remove after the "=":
the host line,
the proxy line,
the port line ,
the proxy name,
the proxy password.

& Save

*headquarter84* · 17-07-2007

would you please just edit your post

remove the proxy/username & password

*headquarter84* · 17-07-2007

still facing the same trouble

Code:

[12:41:24] + Attempting to send results
[12:56:34] - Couldn't send HTTP request to server
[12:56:34] + Could not connect to Work Server (results)

[12:56:34] - Error: Could not transmit unit 03 (completed July 3) to work server

any other recommendation?

*headquarter84* · 17-07-2007

just checked the GPU version, i have an ATI card, but i don't think that i'll be able to live with the client as it has so many limitations to general PC usage... plus, the generic GUI beta version was removed from the download page

...
