Its better to suspend WUs / project if you want to restart your PC. In all your cases the WU was finished an restarted again.


Now THAT is also worth mentioning in the FAQ's. Right were they deal with the long units! :-)

When I came back this morning to my PC I had to find out that all 24 wu's had errored after 40-50 hours of crunching, not one turned out valid! That is extremely frustrating! If you want to take a look at the log here is one example:

Ok, maybe I was too impatient because the progress bar is also way off. Now I understand how your wu's work.

The suffix "long" in the name is no exageration as they will need around 40 hours each on my PC. I have read that it is possible to set up the app_config.xml to run multithreading on them. My question is, where do I find the exact name of the app or can I just put "all" under name? Thanks rebirther. And again for always answering so quickly. That is rather unusual I must say but greatly appreciated!

Ok found it. But nevertheless that doesn't solve the problem because like I said all wu's started again from zero. After 2 hours they show now close to 20%. Obviously the BOINC manager didn't use the stderr.txt files to resume crunshing.

Hello rebirther. Last night I turned off my computer after 10 hours of crunshing the long wu's hoping that I was able to continue where I was left off. Unfortunatetly that wasn't the case. This morning all 24 wu's started from scratch. That was dissapointing. I couldn't find a way of copy and pasting them here for reference so I just give you one example. Maybe they need to be looked at to see what went wrong. S340_900-950k_wu_2610_0

Hello everyone. I couldn't find information on that in this forum, if I over looked it than please excuse me. My Ryzen 9 is running a bunch of the long units under Windows and according to the properties of every individual task they don't checkpoint. Is that correct? Thanks
