-177 (0xffffffffffffff4f) fault code

(1/1)

Geek@Play:
Overnight this computer has downloaded 15 version 603 MB work units.  All errored out with the same fault code of -177 (0xffffffffffffff4f).  I have now removed version 603 MB from my app_info so that no more will be requested. I would be happy to add the 603 info back into the app_info again if anyone has any trouble shooting they want to do.

Of the 15 errored out work units, 10 failed at a run time of 0.00.  3 errored with a run time of exactly 1,533.89. 1 errored out at exactly 1,534.45 and 1 errored out at exactly 1,534.22 seconds.

This all concerns this computer only.I am convinced that this is NOT a problem on my end.  3 errors at exactly the same time and 10 errors at exactly the same time?  Not a hardware problem here.  And again this computer was successfully crunching 603 work units before the server changes earlier this week.

Again if anyone at Berkeley is interested, I'm still here.  I have copy's of the error's that report to Microsoft available if intersted.

More info here from yesterday.

For anyone here, I consider this to be a problem for Berkeley and post it here if anyone is interested.

I have a bunch of these errors last night - error out after 2+mins. After i removed the flops in the app_info, all wu resumed to normal crunching.

Geek@Play:
Why would those of us that are using optimized apps and the app_info file have more -177 problems than those users who are running stock?

As seen in the BOINC server code respository at

and qioted on the main board this morning

David wrote bad code (his words were "messed up") and hasn't worked out how to fix it yet.

Geek@Play:
OK......Guess I was asking for that.
